Another #MAGA schmuck who craves #victimhood. I've seen a lot of people who drive around in unnecessarily lifted trucks with shitty #rightwing flags mounted on them, and without exception they are all #douchebags. Every. Single. One. This one is taking a stand by relegating himself to #homeschooling. How brave of him. I'm sure this intellectual powerhouse will be scientist in no time!

This statement caught a thought thatâs been rolling around in the âole nogginâŠ
đ€Ąrumps embrace of his own victimhood.
âThe American mythos has never been one of #victimhood.
Itâs about taking risks, venturing into the unknown, and building a new life.â

Sorry Donald, it wasn't the #Democrats that broke the law. That was you. Also, aren't you supposed to be a #billionaire? Whine more about how much things cost.

A quotation from Shain, Merle:
«««««
The conflict between what one is and who one is expected to be touches all of us. And sometimes, rather than reach for what one could be, we choose the comfort of the failed role, preferring to be the victim of circumstance, the person who didnât have a chance.

Living with #victimhood is worse than being a #victim. You can potentially move on from an unfortunate event, but not from victimhood.
Victimhood will keep on dragging you into the same miserable state that an unfortunate event can't. An event has a beginning and an end, but the #mental conditioning of victimhood is perpetual.
It's similar to the saying that #pain is inevitable, but suffering is a choice. In other words, pain is temporary, but #suffering is perpetual.

That sounds like #victimhood to me - come on! #scotland is geographically coherent, the population are educated and #Holyrood is run by pro-independence parties - and has been for some time.
If you cannot convince even a bare majority (& you need a bit more than that) to vote for independence it means you have not made the case

Thereâs really no difference between the #LoveBombing pedestal (#idealization) and the itâs all your fault POS status (#devaluation). While one feels better than the other, both are equally meaningless. Theyâre just different versions of the same #manipulation. The carrot and the stick are one and the same to the #codependent #PeoplePleaser.
Meaning, both conditions canât simultaneously be true. You canât be the most amazing, special-est man/woman ever and the most horrible person ever. Especially when a #borderline, #narcissist or #histrionic partner vacillates between the two extremes multiple times within the same hour.
But which one is true? Again, neither.
So many clients are easily manipulated by the mercurial opinion of their #BPD, #NPD or #HPD partner. It's the reason they walk on eggshells. #ClusterB #PersonalityDisorder-ed people donât have a cohesive, stable sense of themselves (i.e., #construct). Hence their rage and perceived #victimhood at the smallest and/or imaginary slight or criticism. As such, their construct of other people â including you -- is similarly unstable.
âYou bought me a new car!!! Yay!!! I love you!!! Thank you, daddy!!!! Best daddy ever!!!!!â
âYou wonât let me have a third cookie!!!! Mean mommy!!! I hate you!!!!!â
Therefore, any approval from a BPD, HPD or NPD person is meaningless if it can change on a dime. This becomes a manipulation tactic once they figure out the power they can wield by alternating withholding love or blowing smoke up your butt (i.e., variable ratio reinforcement schedule).
Itâs all the same to them.
In my experience, these individuals enjoy being cruel more and resent having to love bomb or #Hoover. The overt cruelty is more enjoyable because of the contempt they feel for you for tolerating their abuse. I also suspect it makes them feel more powerful when their victim grovels for love. Contemptuous and powerful.
Furthermore, healthy adults don't change their opinion of you just because they occasionally feel irritated, hurt or disappointed by you. In fact, healthy adults can still love and respect their partner even when theyâre super angry with them. And can do so without engaging in wanton cruelty or childish nonsense. Imagine that!
If you're still trying to make it work with a disordered partner because you don't think you can live without their approval, please understand that for which youâre tolerating abuse IS NOT REAL. Itâs your codependency and need for external validation from someone who'll never be capable of giving it to you that's real. They'll continue to exploit your vulnerabilities and abuse you for as long as you're willing to suffer it and them.

In The Psychology of #Victimhood (2005), Ofer Zur wrote:
"In claiming the status of victim and assigning all the blame to others, a person can achieve moral superiority while simultaneously disowning any responsibility for his or her behaviour ⊠The victim status is a powerful one. The victim is always morally right, neither responsible nor accountable, and forever entitled to sympathy."

And one really shouldn't be surprised to see Bethany Mandel declare herself a "victim" on Twitter. If you read her tweets slowly, you can even hear the telltale saccharine strings just underneath her attention-seeking nonsense.
This is right out of the conservative playbook:
"I don't actually have an argument other than random hate and cannot define a basic term. Therefore, I have been needlessly excoriated by the "cruelty" of intellectual debate. I refuse to accept responsibility for my own stupidity Please feel sorry for me."
Well, excuse me while I pull out the world's smallest violin. If you cannot argue or defend your points, you have no business making media appearances.

Asylum plan 'very concerning' - would break international law - #UN refugee agency
This is of course what #sunak wants - to double down on #nativist #victimhood & ensure all #littleEnglanders vote Tory
Having dumped on #business with the exception of #disasterCapitalists, the young - as well as more traditional #ToriesOut enemies like the poor & vulnerable they are looking to deluded #nostalgists & even #racists for support
#braverman will lobby to leave the UN next

The thing with psychopathic, narcissitic cult leaders is that very often they evoke their followers being âvictims of the outside worldâ to legitimate their own absolute leadership over them.
Coincidentally, this is exactly how Russian leadership is behaving.
Coincidence? đž

Plenty of boring ways to explain my research topic & why it motivates me to get out of bed every morning. Hereâs a more interesting way though, thanks to Tami Amanda Jacoby (2015): âthe construction of grievance-based identity is a fundamentally contested process as the lines between victim and perpetrator are blurred by ongoing cycles of belligerence and retributionâ.
Now you know. đ„âš

Can you imagine wanting to be a victim so badly that you're jealous of mass shooting victims? Tucker Carlson and the right can't help but try to steal the spotlight -- and victim label -- from those taken by gun violence.

Greatly enjoying my #Mastodon timeline with its mix of followed hashtags and persons!
Nothing pushed out by a platform trying to promote its own #SelfInterested goals. đ
Most days I discover someone or something else to follow, adding #depth and/or #diversity to the feed.
Some days I improve the ongoing #Quality by muting those that emit #Hate, #NameCalling, #Stupidity, #Victimhood, or blatant #SelfPromotion.
It's a process almost opposite that of a #StochasticParrot #LLM like #ChatGPT.

#Victimhood is not a virtue, and if you cash in on it, you are embarrassing yourself
