@petrapark3r you are very right. Treating others as less than you is barbaric. The Caste system of parts of India, bad...very bad. A holdover from the late 1600's. But, I must say you are doing the better option of bringing attention to it!
Thank you, you are right, the Caste system is propably the worst instance of victim blaming on a large scale in history. Maybe apart from blaming the jews for everything that went wrong in europe...
There are other instances however, and I couldn't stop myself from thinking about it this morning.
I've been told here on TWS by (reasonable) Hindus, that it's Jesus' own fault for being crucified. I personally have never studied Hindu faith, so I really couldn't say, wether victim blaming is something intrinsic to the idea itself. But the fact, that there was not a single Hindu disagreeing with blaming Jesus, suggests to me, that it might indeed be intrinsic. Or that the majority of Hindus is interpreting the concept in the wrong way.
You know I am glad, that my religion does not tell me, that I could even look for the fault with the person who something bad happens to. Simply because I am no saint. And if I had any reason to assume the victim (of a proven crime) was somehow at fault, I wouldn't be able to stop myself from thinking just that. I wouldn't be able to stop myself from judging them. So I am really glad that I don't believe in karma, because it would tempt me into thinking (and maybe doing) awful things. But that's just me. Maybe I am that bad a person

@sarah Eh the shortest story. Well .... Ummm.. My brother woke me up at 9:00 on the first day of high school. It was a horror to me, 9:00 shit its too late and then I went messing the whole home shouting about my Bag, socks and lunch box and shoes, along with brushing and removing clothes to get a bath. My mother hurried up and came to me scolding, "Paras, what the fuck are you doing up in 3:00 at the middle of the night?". And my brother was snoring in the next room.
K so see what I'm talking about this is what ducks with my head... I put that out to the world and my phone rings... I have no contacts in my phone other than my kids... And it's a native program worker asking if I want to attend an all women's moon Ceremony tonight... It's like the fucking Truman show... Something just keeps pushing me forward everytime I question my existence...
@mritchie36 I would make you get the hell up and get a job and kiss your parents goodbye, also I would get you a girlfriend and an apartment once your financially stable
