VICTIM BLAMING

Why is it that people always want to blame the victim if something bad happens to them and then devalue their experience and pain? This usually happens to POC groups, WOC and women.

Because some people are retarded.

_{Hmm... probably because it's easier to say "well, you should/n't have done this or that" and blame one person than it is to blame society and a way of thinking instead? IDK.}

Oh no! Don't get mixed up in this! Lol this thread is ugly! But I do understand what you are saying. It's like when someone does something wrong and they get upset and blame you. For example, if your mother forgot something and blames you for not reminding her. A LARGELY simplified statement to the issues. But it's kind of in a nutshell/
