When someone insists that you owe loyalty, closeness, or participation in a relationship that actively degrades you, they are not being neutral. They are not being “family-minded.” They are not being “forgiving,” “diplomatic,” or “conflict-averse.”
They are participating in the degradation.

White supremacy is a victimhood pyramid scheme with the biggest victim winning "most innocent person" and claiming moral rightousness on how everyone else owes them or deserves punishment because they aren't as deserving due to their lack of innocence . It's a victimhood competition.

Currently reading DesCartes Error - published 1991. It's making me realize that this word, and people of his time, is why we understand ADHD and executive functioning so well now. People on tiktok have these conversations like they drink water, but it was once intensive neuropsychological research.

In this culture, even power is victimhood in disguise. Bravado is just the mask shame wears.

In this book, Coercive Control, Stark constantly compares hostages to women in coercive control, saying hostages have it easier than the women. Hostages have hope that they will be free one day, everyone agrees on the reality that they are captive and they are seen as courageous if they escape.
