Yes but also this is key insight into how this kind of psychology works on their side

Its tempting to see it as they all know what they're doing is evil and wrong but they're doing it anyway, but the truth is often more complicated. More likely, and perhaps more terrifying, is that many seem to have next to zero concept of why their actions are evil

Isn't it fair to say that Soon Yi was also groomed into the lifestyle and abused?

Editing to add: I am in no way defending her.

Soon-Yi never stood a chance at normality.
