Excellent quotes from article:

Today there exist certain sicknesses: manipulators full of charm, people who seduce, who have a gentle or attractive side but who do not accept opposition or dissent. They like you, but the day you do not dance to their tune, they make your life unbearable.

There exists an emotional blackmail and abusers become victims when they are contradicted or have a different opinion.

We must open our eyes and create communities where there is transparency and truth, with mature men and women, who recognize their limitations and allow others to help them. We must clean up our act and 'disabuse' ourselves.

discernment and honest dialogue

search always and in all things for the will of God
