[@Melissa0774]

I can't believe you didn't mention it in this video, but the episode Tanking it to the Streets, was based on a real incident that happened in San Diego California in 1995. A guy stole a tank and tried to attack a hospital with it and he got shot by the cops. He ran over a bunch of cars and stuff. I remember seeing it on the show World's Scariest Police Chases with John Bunnel, years ago. But I can't find it on You Tube, though, because I guess nobody posted it, unfortunately. But I know that the scene in the King of the Hill episode, where Bill was running over the parking meters with the tank, was taken directly from the video footage of that incident, because the guy who did it, knocked down a bunch of parking meters, exactly the same way. I wouldn't even be surprised if they used that actual video to guide the animation. Here's a Wikipedia article about the incident. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shawn_Nelson_(criminal) And actually, the show I saw is posted, but it doesn't include the parking meter footage, though, for some reason. Here it is. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bIWspqFraJt7fNE I know there's another version of this where they show they guy mowing down the parking meters, but I can't find it.

Peggy is written to be a genuinely unlikable character, but not an outright "evil" character. Its actually amazing how well the writers do at making someone that the audience hates, but is more flawed in ways that continually create bad situations than an outright bad person.

[@rosesweetcharlotte]

As I have gotten older, I have learned to really appreciate Peggy. I mean, you look at her life and you realize that her overconfidence has kept her alive. Her mother is cruel and over critical, other people don't understand her, her brother is a criminal and her sister-in-law is wreck. She has issues with Hank's infertility and her ability as a mother, her failings in her professional life, and she tries her hardest to be a loving mother to Bobby and Luanne. Plus Cotton's treatment of her. Oh, and her breaking every bone in her body and still managing to recover. But Peggy pulls through and remains herself. That is amazing.

to be completely fair this entire scene is also a tremendous moment of triumph for Dale. Did he make mistakes while driving that tank? Yes. However, he also *actually fucking operated that tank.* Something he learned how to do because he *taught himself how to speak Russian* and then *translated a classified military document he got his hands on from Russian intelligence about a stolen manual of how to operate the tank* that is extraordinary to me, it doesn't matter if Dale fucked up and drove over Kahn's car.

For the victim mentality thing, I'd have to add that it's also tied into the worst abusers who often cry as the biggest victims. I've heard it as the description of what bullying was and I didn't see it as a kid but I see grown up, sometimes extremely old people doing exactly that description every now and again As for the Peggy hate, I think the issue is that there are episodes centered around Peggy in which she makes annoying and terrible decisions or just gets on the nerves of a lot of viewers.

[@MasterAdam100]

The end of the video was on point! The reason victimhood is pushed so hard (especially on minority communities) is because they know it causes stagnation. Nothing kills progress like feeling you don't have power over your destiny. I'm blessed to have had a good father to teach me this lesson young. He grew up poor in the projects, everyone around him was an addict or criminal (none of his childhood friends are left, all are dead or locked up) and my grandfather had (sadly still has) a bad gambling addiction. No one to look to for guidance. So he joined the military, initially thinking he would just join as infantry, but he scored so well on the ASVAB he was immediately offered a job in Washington. However, he had a passion for aircraft, so instead he took a job as a jet engine mechanic which he did for many years. He ironically ended up doing the same job he was initially offered later in his career, as at that point he had a family and it paid better, but that job still fulfilled another passion of his, space. My father went from a young guy from a rough background who left high school and didn't go to college, to being an expert in his field, making good money and travelling the world. I realise things are different today, as you need a 100k degree to flip burgers, but what will never change is if you have the will to change and better yourself there is no power on this Earth that can stop you. Even if your father doesn't set the best example, it still teaches you what not to do. Watching how my grandfather wasted all his income on gambling taught my father to never gamble. If your father isn't in the picture, find other figures to look up to. Read someone like Marcus Aurelius, or watch videos from someone like David Goggins. The media you consume and the people you idolise can change your life, for better or for worse. Make sure it's the former. I realise I went on a bit of a tangent here because of a King of the Hill video, and I know no one will probably read it, but on the chance someone does I hope it helps.

[@rickyray2794]

Just a little something, you do not need a 100k degree for a worthwhile job. I got a Bachelors degree in cyber security at a state college for a good price and it opened up a lot of doors for me.

I was recently diagnosed with ADHD-pi. It is so much better knowing that there is a reason for many of my problems. I'm not lazy, stupid, or any of that. I have a neurotransmitter deficiency. But, that does not mean I can continue to simply let myself be that way. Instead, I have acknowledged what the source of the problem is, that this makes it harder for me to do certain things, and that thats alright. But that I still need to do these things to attain my goals. I can work with myself honestly and not compare my success to someone who is neurotypical. Instead, I can say 'I did a good job today' for smaller things and smaller goals that I set for myself. And when I do fail, I can protect my ego a bit better. 'It's alright. Failure happens, and this is hard. But keep going.' And sometimes I just have to accept that I'm different in certain ways and that means going about things differently. Instead of being mad at myself for not fitting in a round hole as a square peg, I can put myself into more square situations. This is all to say, I am the only one who can make my life better or worse. My genetics may make things harder for me, but they do not make things impossible. Just as someone who has a disposition to a larger body type can still diet, exercise, and be healthy. I can still be productive. It will be harder for us both in our respective roles, but the alternative is death. So we must take responsibility, to live the best life possible for us. It may not be my fault that I have ADHD-pi, but it is my responsibility to deal with the effects it has on my life.

while i completely agree with your mentality and support u 100%, i just want to say that i think moreso rather then actual medical problems or things of that nature, when discussing the victim mentality I think shady is more pointing out things people blame that dont actually have an effect on you, like Bill’s placebo effect. It wasnt a real disability but something he was latching onto to blame anyone but himself, which can really only be a hindrance. Another example is many people today who claim the reason they didnt get the job or get into college, etc. is not because of themselves, but because of any other reason they have no control over. It can go in any direction, but the point is it is extremely encouraged to be a victim these days, and it helps no one (edit: or at least in no real long term way, it may help them in the short term by landing them a job, but if they can’t actually do the work, they will fail eventually so long as meritocracy prevails anyways)

[@judgem0rt1s23]

@@a-a-rom Granted, Bill's problem wasn't a real disability, but that doesn't mean people *with* disabilities can't fall into the victim mentality problem. I was born with Asperger's syndrome, and for most of my youth was an absolute little shit. As an adult I'm lazy and have moments of depression because of bad decisions I've made throughout my life, as well as other things that were beyond my control. It would be all too easy for me to say that "It's not my fault I'm like this, life's just stupid and unfair" and not do anything whatsoever to improve it. Thankfully I'm smart enough to know my support network won't be alive forever, so I'm trying to learn and figure out how to take care of myself without needing as much assistance. I'll admit...sometimes it's hard for me to separate what actually has been my fault vs. what hasn't (some days it feels like *everything's* my fault)...but I think it's more beneficial to go "God nerfed me, because he knew I'd be too powerful, otherwise" and learn to better yourself where you can.

Coming from someone who does the opposite of the victim mentality. It is hard during the interview and you ask what could you have done better and there is no feedback. You spend days worrying why you are not good enough. I know for me this is a huge issue.

[@ShadyDoorags]

This is the opposite extreme and is also not a good thing. You do need to acknowledge that sometimes things aren't your fault and/or accept that you're not perfect. I think, however, society in general has more of a problem with feeling like a victim to compensate for weaknesses than overblaming themselves.

[@Arri7979]

@@ShadyDoorags - I feel like the opposite of the victim mentality mindset is imposter syndrome and I think it's becoming more common these days, at least in the younger generations. Imposter syndrome is the idea that you doubt your place in a community (whether it's work, school, or personal relationships) and you feel like you are playing a character in order to fit into this environment. It also stems from this idea of not seeing yourself as good enough, as Jessica mentioned in her initial comment. Since you feel like you're not good enough for the role you're in, you kind of feel like an imposter playing a part. I definitely heard it a lot throughout university, especially among first generation college students, students of color, and women. I also think the feeling stems from feeling out of place in an environment where there is little representation for people of your background. I think that's why it's talked about so much in academic or work settings where someone could be part of the minority and therefore might feel singled out because of it. You don't blame the others for being there, you more so question your role. I agree that going to this extreme can also be damaging, but I see it more and more these days.

Victim mentality was the reason I ended up leaving my last 2 exes. Ex 1 chose to not go back on his meds after not being able to take them and got mad at me for not wanting to be his therapist and wanting him to take the meds he needed but didn't want to take. He then started harassing and bullying me because I left him for wanting me to literally cure him and then be blamed me for him being told to stop harassing me and people defending me for 4 years of him trying to ruin my image. My second ex started blaming all of his life on others. He hated his job at Wal-Mart but he refused to job search for a new job he just stayed and complain. He complained about his weight but ate fast food every day because it was cheaper even though I offered to help him budget for healthier at home meals. Then when I left because he was becoming abusive he accused me of cheating and said the entire thing was my fault. The victim mentality sucks and sometimes its out of your control (for example with my abuse at the hands of my mother when she lived with me). But sometimes its just you (like my previous grades) and its up to you to fix it.

If your blaming the single individual for not getting the job/promotions that's probaly more defensive BS then anything. Suspecting a prejudice in the company is a lot more valid. The biggest issue I find with victim mentality is they want it to be personal. They want to be important even in there oppression. Saying its a systemic issues everyone faces steals that feeling of individual importance so they don't touch on those aspects. Also facing the reality that there are people who are just better at dealing with handicaps then you robs you of a clean "its not my fault" and that hurts.

To be honest, I remember this episode resonated REAL hard with me for a couple of reasons: Through out school I struggled with ALOT of shit, I had poor grades, I kept getting bullied and whenever I tried to express my frustrations or issues, it often came out in a way were I would either be told to "get thicker skin" or that I'm "over-reacting", not realize that I just couldn't express myself properly. I dealt with depression, it was hard for me to pay attention and all I wanted to do was draw. I didn't find out until I was in my 20s that the reason why I struggled so hard in school was because I am AUTISTIC. When I finally officially diagnosed...I felt relief, anger and sorrow. Relief because I realized that my issues with other people weren't entirely my fault; I just couldn't communicate with other people properly. Anger/Sorrow because I ALSO learned that when I was a child, I DID go a therapist at one point and during that time people it COULD'VE been caught earlier but they were only focusing on autism in BOYS, so I often got misdiagnosed and if I had gotten diagnosed properly, it probably would've saved me YEARS of issues.

There are times when I feel the world is unfair, but only to the extent that "normal" people don't have my specific drawbacks. Some people in my life still say many of my past problems weren't my fault but the fault my circumstances but thats only 50% true.

I just wanted to say your argument and especially that segment towards the end really spoke to me and taught me a lesson. As someone who's experienced a tough and traumatic early upbringing, throughout my life I've tended to blame my dysfuncitonal family for alot of my problems. My toxic habits and vices, my social axiety and awkwardness, my lack of independence, etc.. and although I do feel they are to a great extent to blame, it doesn't excuse my toxic behavior or laziness. I can't control what was done to me or what is wired into my head due to my poor parenting, and letting go of your past demons is always easier said than done. but I CAN control the person I turn out to be. I've finally accepted that i actively cause my own problems by not addressing them properly, and I'm the only one who is capable of changing my life and finding success, not anyone else. And I've done so because I learned to stop attributing others for my shortcomings. Like you said, accepting that you are entirely a victim of circumstance is the same as submitting to the mentality that you can never change because you've convinced yourself that all of your problems are out of your control. But the truth is no matter how flawed or how damaged you are, everyone has the ability to transform themselves, but only you. you just have to find your will and your inner strength deep inside. I just wanted to say thank you so much, you have no idea how much you've helped me.

[@lullabysorrow5746]

The message at the end about looking at yourself before blaming others or anything else should be taught religiously because I'm sure everyone has had that one friend(s) that would never apologize, but assume the world was against them. But NEVER changed a single thing about themselves and continued to wonder why their life wasn't changing. Going through life having female friends only I've noticed, most of them have this problem where they put their pride over the right thing. My old best friend would never apologize no matter what, she would even resort to saying she was depressed or its this that and the third's fault. It just was not a good time but sadly for best friends you always give them too many chances until the scar they've worked on can't be ignored no longer. And trust me most of the time no matter what the argument was about I apologized even if I was in the right, for things that offended her to show I did not intentionally do it and made sure to keep a mental note not to do that thing again. Also relationships in general I feel like suffer because no one wants to step up and realize yes you aren't perfect but you can still work towards being better. Like its natural to side with your friends when they go through a breakup, and they will probably tell you how they did the world for them and that the other person is a villian. But honestly if you know how your friend(s) well, you know there is probably a good reason it didn't work out.

The moment I realised I was a victim was the first time I was able to get a grip on the situation and remove myself from the abusive system. I was immediately accused by all of the extended family of having a victim mentality and blaming everyone else for my own flaws. The same family who had not been any help at all when I was sexually, physically, emotionally and psychologically abused as a child. The same family who looked the other way when my father used my name to commit fraud, and told me I'd be the one in trouble if I told anyone.

Yes youre right in some ways. If someone is raped and then feels a certain way about it, those feelings are not their fault. The rape was not their fault. However, their healing is their responsibility. Dealing with the repercussions is their responsibility. I believe responsibility to be the key to a victim mentality. One can be a legitimate victim, but they still have the responsibility to make the choices and take the actions to deal with the fallout. Victim mentality removes that agency. It says 'i am this way, so I don't have to change. This is just who I am because...' 'genetics', 'I was raped', 'bad parenting', etc. In reality, one may find it harder and may have problems because of these things, and should be given sympathy, but it is their responsibility to fix the problems in their life.

I couldn't answer the question but I realize it was super easy and that I need to do something about it to be able to answer correctly next time" and that is how I went from struggling with some courses to pass everything with extra courses included (it is supposed to be like 5 per semester and I got like 7 per semester for like 2 years, one of those semester a teacher said that it shouldn't be more than 3 with one of those courses, and 2 of those 3 should be easy ones).
