text: But moral anguish often results from: (1) dramatic disparities between what the sufferer has been told they can expect from the person or entity that caused them harm and what the person or entity has actually done (e.g., a father who has sexually abused his child, a university administration that protects the “rights” of a student who is a rapist over validation and justice for the rapist’s victim, a government or a commanding officer claiming justification for a military action that turns out to be false), (2) retribution when the sufferer speaks the truth about what happened, and (3) loved ones and/or those in authority “gaslighting” the sufferer by failing to state strongly that the disparity and hypocrisy that the sufferer has dared to describe is real.
