I don’t agree with Michael Savage on much, but I believe he coined the expression. “Liberalism is a mental disorder.”
This is the mindset that CRT cultivates. Any criticism, anything that doesn’t go your way, is caused by racism and you are the victim. Can’t imagine anything more damaging to teach a child.

“...the social world is satiated with interpersonal transgressions...”
“satiated”?
One is satiated with Thanksgiving dinner; filled to complete satisfaction; one’s prior hunger thus sated. I wouldn’t regard the abounding of interpersonal transgressions as bringing with it a positive, comfortable, satisfying quality.
Perhaps “saturated” — nearly the same as satiated, in the sense of fullness, but connoting also the negative sense of being unable to hold more, as when stuffed beyond comfortable satisfaction. Glutted. Bursting. Gorged.
Tendency to see oneself as a victim
Yep it’s a fact it’s called a lawyer.
These researchers wrote this just to attack ME!!!
They should be fired and have their degrees revoked!!!
Good distinction, thanks. I represented way too many narcissists as an Air Force Area and Circuit Defense Counsel. They’re almost impossible to coach about testifying on extenuation and mitigation, because they won’t EVER admit having been wrong about anything.
From the study abstract:
“In the present research, we introduce a conceptualization of the Tendency for Interpersonal Victimhood (TIV), which we define as an enduring feeling that the self is a victim across different kinds of interpersonal relationships. Then, in a comprehensive set of eight studies, we develop a measure for this novel personality trait, TIV, and examine its correlates, as well as its affective, cognitive, and behavioral consequences. In Part 1 (Studies 1A-1C) we establish the construct of TIV, with its four dimensions; i.e., need for recognition, moral elitism, lack of empathy, and rumination, and then assess TIV’s internal consistency, stability over time, and its effect on the interpretation of ambiguous situations.”
I can’t access the full study.
I’d be very interested in what they had to say about the moral elitism dimension.
I double-checked that this wasn’t the Bee (satire)...
I wonder if there is any relation to learned helplessness in this?
I too am interested in the moral ethics aspect, what does it mean, first off!
