What you don't realize and what you don't take into account is that the opposition is growing faster than your "awareness". It doesn't matter if there is a "growing effort towards awareness" when ignorance and hate explodes in leaps and bounds. You cannot focus on awareness in isolation.

I fundamentally don't believe your solution will work, and will likely aid the enemy, and I have evidence to back this up. If I'm not "contributing" to your "solution", then that is a bonus.

The only way to get people to understand is to
make everyone suffer from PTSD - that's the only way they'll "get it". That's the
goal, not the thing to avoid. People will never learn until they suffer what they inflict - that's the only way the human brain works. Human beings are too
stupid to understand PTSD any other way.

Strictly speaking, I should have said "socially acceptable". Mea culpa.

Again, the piddling amount of people "actually listening" are irrelevant next to the armies of ignorant people. You do not understand scale or ratios. They matter.
Simply put, you put too much faith in a species who has spent the entirety of history proving that it deserves exactly no faith. Until you dispose of this faith and rely on only what you can
force, you will not make any significant gains. This is a
war, not a tea party. The losing side dies.
