Why People Fake VIctimhood
They want to feel like their heroes
without ever having to risk,
they want to feel like their special,
without ever having to earn it.
They want to feel they’re put upon,
so they can claim they're virtuous,
without having to act moral,
feel good, but still do shady stuff.
They want all the praise and glory
without ever having to work,
they want to blame somebody so
they can fail and not feel the hurt.
