I enjoyed reading what you have to say on this, and expanding further with your anecdotal experience added substantially to the essay in my opinion. Where I live it is not uncommon for me to see tribes of younger individuals who self-identify as victims, and wear that badge seemingly with pride. In my estimation, there is a culture of victimization forming here in some parts of the west, which I find to be actively supported and propped up by a variety of interested parties. Self-victimization and indulging in pity from other truly does feel great in the short term, I believe it’s another form of instant gratification. I hope that your readers gained deeper insight into this poison through this essay. Thank you
Once again thank you for the suggestion and helping me see that this is something that can be talked about in longer form. I believe that the self-victimization is present amongst young people almost all over the world, but I'm sure it's to a different extent in different places. As you say it's propped up by interested parties, but I truly do believe that each one of us, as an individual, can do a lot on this front just by setting an example with how we carry ourselves.
