Is society progressively morphing into a "victim" culture? ?

Question

Do you think Western society, propelled by political correctness and public liability, is becoming a victim culture?

That is, it is "normal" to be a victim - advocate groups and individuals who take offense at literally ANYthing - or those who make wildly excessive claims that something that happened to them is everyone elses fault.

Case in point - ethnic, sexuality or religious groups who create an outcry at seemingly every opportunity?

Answer 1

How dare you assume the civil rights movement has anything but the best of intentions! The injustices suffered by everyone not white or male throughout American history cannot be dismissed as opportunism like that ****** steatopygiaphile says. Discrimination is very real and any accusation of such directed toward white males is legitimate as their history of discrimination and exploitation proves! All white men are evil, and discrimination will exist as long as they exist! You and steatopygiaphile can go to h**l!

Answer 2

It has been for some time. The civil rights movement has perfected the art of exploiting their real or perceived weakness as a will to power. Inequalities are considered proof of some form of discrimination rather than a shortcoming on the so-called victims part, instilling the competent with a sense of guilt and fear of accusations of racism, sexism, etc..and therefore the will to fight it.
