Having just sat through a long harassment response and prevention seminar, it was interesting that they did mention WOKE and a number of other social mentalities that are prevalent among much of today's youth. I also found it interesting that they did not discuss how they handle those suffering from the malady of "victimhood"
within their policies and directives.
"Based on clinical observations and research, the researchers found that the tendency for interpersonal victimhood consists of four main dimensions:
(a) constantly seeking recognition for one’s victimhood,
(b) moral elitism,
(c) lack of empathy for the pain and suffering of others, and
(d) frequently ruminating about past victimization."

This is, as I see it, a looming problem that has been, is and will be weaponized throughout various realms of public life, and sometimes even intruding into private lives. There is no absolute measure of the claimants experience and/or agenda behind playing the victim role illegitimately when filing a complaint with legal advocacy organizations and/or their respective employer EEO, or even a governmental agency geared along that line of advocacy.
That there can and will be subjective measures applied, based on limited guidance for what is mostly internal to the one making the complaint and therefore cannot be proven in the mind and emotions of the claimant, that leaves the field wide open for advocacy authorities to weaponize the system to go after whomever the finger of blame is pointed, and without having to show proof of anything from within the mind of the one making the complaint.
Quite a number of lives have been ruined because of false accusations from chronic liars and mentally imbalanced individuals. As more and more imbalanced and dishonest people out there are emboldened to illegitimately use the increasing array of weaponized systems geared toward protecting and legitimizing a larger and larger array of mental illnesses that are today protected as legitimate and healthy lifestyles and life choices, we will see the creation of more and more legitimate victims who find themselves on the receiving end of injustices perpetrated by those who have no moral restraint against bearing false witness.
This is where not only the full armor of God is needed, but also full reliance upon the Spirit of the Lord to guide one through the stacked minefield against them. I was once falsely, accused by a racist, of uttering a racial slur that never was uttered by me, and it was by the protection of the Lord through a witness in my favor that they set aside that accusation against me by a racist who was well known for being a troublemaker in the company, and who filed more complaints than anyone else in the entire nationwide company.
So, having been on the receiving end of such an injustice at the hands of a mentally imbalanced racist, I can say from experience that no matter how innocent one may be, the system is most generally stacked against the one being accused, thus his or her having to prove their innocence. The witness on my side is the only thing that kept the EEO people from firing me on the spot for something I never said, nor even hinted. I was talking about a particularly nasty and violent form of music on the radio waves, never anything about skin color or ethnicity.
How about you? Ever found yourself with your nose against a steam roller wheel driven by someone using it as a weapon against you, just to silence you through illegitimate/false accusation?
