      stray thought certain behaviors are acceptable (in some sense) when an agent is weak that are not acceptable when an agent is strong convincing yourself that you are weak may be a trick to give yourself permission to act badly

      meanwhile, convincing yourself that you are strong may be likely to engender good behavior (and perhaps you will transcend the mask)

      Generally fostering a sense of victimhood and lack of agency is a disaster for the cultivation of virtue and ought to be deprecated Contempla

      and what of people who are legitimately victimized & deprived of agency, whose beliefs accurately reflect the reality

      It's still a terrible mind state and something to move through as one is able. Terrible things have been done to me. I did not much identify as a victim although of course I was one. It was simulataneously true, and unhelpful.

          sorry but the right answer is "those people should be empowered and liberated from their victimization by whatever means necessary so that nothing gets in the way of their cultivation of their own virtue" otherwise you've just rediscovered The Secret

          This is quite similar to the ‘free will’ debate. Regardless of whether free will exists or not, people behave and interact much better if they believe they have free will because no free will is an excuse for bad behavior. Therefore, free will exists because we need it to exist.

          Ergo, perpetual ingroup victim status and oppressive outgroup status, while perhaps partially accurate, are both catastrophically counterproductive.
