"White people have come to see victimhood as a kind of currency — something you can accumulate, trade, and spend politically. When people of color gained traction by naming real structural harm, the response wasn’t repentance, it was appropriation. Scholars call this “victimhood discourse.” In “The Plausible Deniability Playbook,” sociologists show how white-victim claims circulate online to legitimize grievance under the veneer of free speech and cancel culture. A Journal of Experimental Social Psychology study found dominant-group members more likely to claim “digressive victimhood”: responding to accusations of bias by framing themselves as the real victims. Victimhood becomes moral capital, politicking fuel, and a way to block critique.
You hear it on talk radio: “We’re silenced now.” You see it in legal briefs: “I was discriminated against for being white.” You see it online: endless posts about “woke mobs” and “cancel culture.” This isn’t random whining. It’s victimhood reimagined as land grab.
It’s also not a new tactic. White racist hegemony has been selling the notion that they are the underdog rebels since concocting the pseudo-historical myth of the Confederate “Lost Cause” in the ashes of post-war Reconstruction.
That’s why the sanctification of Kirk matters. The memorials aren’t sentiment; they’re staging."

That constitutes #Victimization IMO.
That'd be a direct attack on the Rule of Law.

We derive a certain satisfaction from being sinned against. It is not only that a grievance adds content to our lives, but also that it makes less monstrous the flame of malice which like a vigil light flickers in the dimness of our souls.

CW: CE: Israeli Palestinitan Conflict, psychology speculation
Random Thought on the #IsraeliPalestineConflict...
People with #trauma, especially from being targeted by groups they can stereotype, can sometimes be driven to victimize others based on that trauma. This can be seen with #JKRowling's aggression towards everyone with a Y-Chromosome, and specific targeting of Trans people: she was traumatized by someone with a Y chromosome in a women's space, so her trauma drives her to fight anyone she relates with that.
I was reading that some #Israeli math books alter the plus sign to avoid looking like a cross, a symbol associated with an undesirable-group, and thinking about the trauma #Jews who fled there may have from #Christians, it made me wonder... What if what the #IsraeliGovernment does, especially the targeting of Christians (#Palestinians, #Bethlehem, etc) is a response to the generational trauma of #antisemitism / #victimization during the #holocaust and for centuries before?

We teach #fascism in school wrong.
The core underlying principle of all successful fascist ideologies has been that of self-#victimization
Nazi Germany rose out of defeat in war, high inflation and conspiracy theories.
Precisely as now, one party seeks power telling those who feel they have the losing end of a stick that it’s not their own fault, but (choose your minority) and ”marxism” is causing all their problems.
Likewise it tells then how perfect and beautiful they are when they hate.

Support from #parents and #caregivers plays a crucial role in the #wellbeing and development of #transgender, #nonbinary, and other #genderdiverse #children. Studies consistently show that #rejecting or exhibiting #hostility towards these children significantly increases their risk of #anxiety, #depression, #substanceabuse, and even #homelessness. Tragically, they also face a higher risk of #suicide due to rejection, #bullying, and #victimization.

Both status-related threats and victimization-related fears shape why individuals own guns, and how they use guns.

CW: song about sexual assault and victimisation
Just listened to a Dutch song that popped up on my Spotify #ReleaseRadar. Wasn't really paying much attention to it till the lyrics near the end made me stop and listen closer, as the subject is quite chilling. When I came home I looked up the song on YouTube and listened to it again, this time with my undivided attention and lyrics:
#CharlotteWessels and #AafkeRomeijn — Alles Wat Ik Wil: https://youtu.be/TXs9Ho5-K6M -
#CommonThread of #vulnerability , #victimization & #stigmatization run through #disability & #CasteBased #discrimination that makes out a #StrongCase for #intersectional & #interrelational #engagement with both these forms of discriminations. Viewing these two types of discriminations through #DistinctAxis provides for #empathy & #comradery for #concerns of one another.

It's impossible to overstate the degree to which many big #tech CEOs and venture capitalists are being #radicalized by living within their own cultural and social #bubble.
Their level of #paranoia and contrived self-#victimization is off the charts, and is getting worse now that they increasingly only consume #media that they have funded, created by their own acolytes.
In a way, it's sort of like a "VC Qanon", and it colors almost everything that some of the most powerful people in the tech industry see and do — and not just in their companies or work, but in culture, politics and society overall.
We're already seeing more and more irrational, #extremist #decision-making that can only be understood through this lens, because on its own their choices seem increasingly unfathomable.
