I don’t remember the “victimhood” line, but it is important to make sure people understand that the problem manifests itself both by being to sensitive by the complainer and not being sensitive enough by the group. I do believe that in any document it needs to be stated that everyone is expected to be tolerant of others. A free society cannot exist without some level of tolerance.
