Always take what sounds like a threat seriously
About this episode
The episode discusses the importance of taking threats seriously and recognizing emotional abuse tactics.
People who threaten, belittle, or use "jokes" about violence are practicing control, and they will gaslight you into submission if you don't take their threats or "jokes" seriously. Don't reward coercion with compliance.
