| 0:00.0 | Hey Deservant Listeners, I thought I would answer some of your emails. |
| 0:03.0 | This first email is from patron KK who has been a patron since 2020. |
| 0:08.0 | They ask, how do abusers identify potential victims? |
| 0:12.0 | What is it that they see in the other person either |
| 0:14.2 | consciously or subconsciously and how do they identify their target? It's a great |
| 0:18.2 | question. Well the first thing we have to do is define what we mean by abusers because the way that the internet |
