Dear Internet.... [Public Service on Victim Blaming]
8 years ago
When people express a view of the world that you happen to disagree with, it is NOT a personal attack.
"You suck, go kill yourself" is a personal attack. "All people have hatred in their hearts" is not an attack.
Accusing someone of being judging others by their own actions when they say that all people have hatred in their hearts is a personal attack, as it declares that the person, who has merely looked at things through a lens of their experiences rather than their actions, deserves to be mistreated for their experience-, NOT Action-driven beliefs.
You are literally saying that one's negative experiences are entirely their fault; the VERY DEFINITION of victim blaming! And this, to be perfectly frank, is not true.
It is not one's fault that they get mistreated by others. It is not one's fault that mistreatments get compounded.
And to the victims of this sort of attitude:
Anyone who tells you that the unjust shit you get in your life is your fault, just because your experiences have made you cynical, is at best misguided, and at worst a troll. Either way, they are not worth any amount of trouble to get them to understand your side.
And now, to those who have read all of that, I would like to give you something less depressing.
