    networking between abusers absolutely emboldens them and results in more abuse.

    Is this proven or a common sense claim you’re making?

      I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s a mixture of the two. It’s kind of like if you surround yourself with criminals regularly, you’re more likely to become one yourself. Not to say it’s a 100% given, just more probable.
