victimcomplex

Here are young women with more opportunities, more liberties than almost any women in history and at that moment we tell them they__e short-changed silenced victims of a patriarchy? It__ defeatist and demoralising.

Liberals are more likely to see people as victims of circumstance and oppression, and doubt whether individuals can climb without governmental help. My own analysis using 2005 survey data from Syracuse University shows that about 90 percent of conservatives agree that __hile people may begin with different opportunities, hard work and perseverance can usually overcome those disadvantages._ Liberals _ even upper-income liberals _ are a third less likely to say this.
