Is there a cure for today’s victim culture? | Michael Ramsden

I do not believe in a "victim culture".
In today's world, there are definitely victims.
To ignore this and claim that victims weren't really victims and only want to "take advantage" themselves and therefore you make the victim the perpetrator. You therefore protect the actual perpetrators and deny the actual victims. This is obscene.

It's also contrary to Jesus' teaching, Kelly.
Are you just going to say you don't believe in it, or watch it and tell me what you think? No one is saying there are not victims, that is not the point he is making, quite the opposite as a matter of fact.

You know of all the people here, your opinion would be the one I'd love to hear the most and I'm not kidding!

So now you're going to devolve into the standard conservative claptrap that "calling yourself a victim is demeaning to actual victims"?
Not buying it. That's just an excuse to keep from helping victims.
How do I know your not one of those secret video watching posters who watch the videos and refuse to acknowledge them, hmm, hmm, tell how do I know!? 🙂
I will watch this, though, and for one reason. I'll watch it with the stopwatch running and tell you exactly how long it took me to become offended by it and stop watching, because I fully expect it to be exactly what I've said it was. Conservative dog-whistling.
I will say I'm now 5 min in, and I am still watching it, and I'm not dodging this, but I need to watch it later when I can devote some attention to it. The guy tells a lot of "stories". I'll get back to you.

Have you had time to watch it yet? If you did and hated it, you can share that, if you did and you liked it I'd like to hear that too. If you didn't I will stop asking, if you want no part of it. Don't want to be bugging you about something you don't intend to watch.

Patience, Kelly. I'll need to give this some time when I am not busy with a zillion other things.
