. . . when "good" refuses to call it what it is.
This woman was abducted and serially raped (among other things) by the Taliban in Afghanistan, but does that mean she wasn't "respected"? Why, no:
I guess the Taliban being monsters isn't the story she wanted to tell.

And I really wish this was isolated thinking, but sadly, it so ridiculously is not.

Though de Rijke was angry with the Dutch and Belgian authorities, she told the Dutch media in interviews given after her release that she was not angry with her abductors. “I do not want to depict the Taliban as monsters. I am not angry with Ghazi Gul. After all, he let me live,” she said. About the rape ordeal she declared that though the experience had been horrible, she was also shown respect. “It’s not black and white. These things can exist side by side. That doesn’t mean that I’m suffering from Stockholm syndrome.”
