It's called nonviolent communication mostly because they really want to emphasise that you're not supposed to punch them when they explain how it works.

Oh, huh, I've just realised how much Marshall Rosenberg's writing reminds me of Edward de Bono. Is there some sort of "How to write like a cult leader" school they both went to?

I think Rosenberg significantly underestimates how much of the success of his method in his anecdotes is as a result of freaking people out enough that they don't want to interact with him any further and/or confusing them into submission.

the explanations of nonviolent communication, & nvc used badly, trigger me so much that it surprised me to meet (mostly here lol) nice ppl who really got a lot out of it & seemed legitimately interested in other ppl

I'm not completely opposed to the mode of behaviour it's selling, and with close friends and loved ones sometimes do a thing that's not a million miles away from it, but I find the advocacy and Rosenberg's writing style very hard to deal with.
