"Pull; yourself by your own bootstraps" must be one of the most successful and most destructive memes ever
This is 'destructive' only from the perspective of someone caught in the psychological prison of victim mentality.
Those NOT caught in that prison, will see it completely differently...a positive, dynamic, expansive mindset.
It illustrates the difference between people borne from an entitled, decadent environment, and those who get on with life.
People that embrace a victim mentality make it easier to blame the outer world, rather than to take personal responsibility.
The belief in authoritative sources (climate change establishment narratives, and the covid hoax are good examples) is one manifestation of the victim mentality 'disorder'.
The difference is - logically speaking - I wake up with a smile on my face, and look forward to the day. Day in, day out.
'they' cannot perceive the world in those terms.
I you consider that all of us live one day at a time, which is the most logical position?
Expanding outwards, which would be the best perspective to adopt for societal happiness?
...and which is worth confronting and thwarting - so as to halt it ever gaining 'normalcy'?
If the cost of a healthy happy society is stopping the negative victim mentality, so be it.
(they're are already miserable... you might even say that you'd be giving them exactly what they desire!lol)
These people just cater to one side or the other and are all friends behind the scenes
For those that don't know the "Star Wars" Carl is talking about was a huge undertaking by our government to weaponize space. Great post Z
Thanks so much for the addition and the kind words @bflanagin!

True. Still not contradicting compassion, solidarity and justice.
....Compassion and justice are opposite of 'the victim mentality'.
'they' are not looking for justice, but for an excuse to stay miserable and blame the world for their own issues.
This is your state of mind. Not necessarily "theirs"
Precisely.

I ment that you think of them as victims. "They" might see themselves as activists trying to make the world a better place
oh they do! - doesn't change anything.
....IF you are objective and look at 'victim mentality' (and covert narcissism), the picture builds itself - without my input/perspective.
