I didnt know why I was against victimhood revenge mindset despite being sympathetic but recently clarified this thought An the realisation was im not against victims obviously- only those that define their identity as victims that need retribution Because this type of victim is the same as the perpetrator You watch 2 little kids fight and while one may have shoved the other by the 2nd hit both are no longer innocent Any outcome where both dont take responsibility - any adult would say that the one claiming victim was in the wrong - its intuitive to us An yet as adults taking personal accountability is the last option in almost every domain We say winner writes history - an in history the winner always writes itself as a victim who overcame to come out on top while the loser is always the perpetrator. An its preposterous to say that this is actually true The moralisation and the idea of "the right always prevails" is a myth to clean the conscience If we dont learn this lesson we are bound to repeat history not because we dont learn from history but because we record history wrong and learn the wrong lessons
