Explanation:
The word <em>satire</em> refers to the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to criticize people or their ideas. For example, politicians have always been easy targets of satire.
In the last sentence, the word <em>worse</em><em> </em>stands out. The narrator says that it's worse if blame changes your behavior than if it puts you in jail, takes away your rights, or even denies you an afterlife. Objectively the change of behavior is the least severe of the listed consequences, but the narrator for some reason says otherwise.

Explanation:
Abused people respond well to love, but they usually don't believe it's real. They wonder why they aren't being hurt or why there is no pain in their love. If they are in a relationship with someone who abuses them, and they never got help as a child, they will continue to be abused and hurt. If they did get help as a child, they will, most likely, walk out of the relationship. On the other hand, people who had good childhoods will respond 'normally' to love, getting out of bad relationships, and staying in good ones.
