You're taking it too literal. Fighting isn't always physical and flight isn't always running. It's defending yourself or extracting yourself from the situation. Your instinct is to cower and accept what's happening.
I'm not condemning the things you've had to do back home to survive. I don't know what you've had to do there that have shaped you into who you are. Just like you don't know what made me into who I am. But that lack of self-preservation here has somehow made a woman that is rather nice and warm, someone who has the inordinate patience of a leader that tries to do good, put you on a stabbing list if what you say is true.

And that concerns me.
