But, the thing is that victimhood in progressive circles is a form of social currency and so it is hoarded and treasured as such. it is in itself a form of power.

You’re mistaking visibility for equality. LGBTQ people might be more seen, but that doesn’t mean the bias is gone. Hate crimes, workplace discrimination, and conversion practices still exist. Legal rights don’t always mean lived equality.

And calling it victimhood when people speak about those realities is lazy. It’s not about collecting pity points. It’s about demanding the same safety and respect everyone else already takes for granted.
