Tyrant victims

It is a commonplace in Jungian psychology that the shadow takes a form opposite to the persona, that we carry within ourselves that very thing which we would never wish to be or to be seen to be.

The leftist victimism permeating gay identity shows up in moves like a gay man suing Eharmony for not providing him service in looking for a same-sex partner. They wind up caving, having to set up a parallel business they don't want, plus offering the first several thousand subscribers free service in reparation for their crime, plus several thousand bucks to the aggrieved homo in question.

But I just got an ad to join ProudSingles, for gays only. Look on their sight and you only have two choices: man seeking men and woman seeking women. Who's gonna sue them? Or Black Singles?

In the Alice in Wonderland world we are making, the privileged victim gets to play the tyrant and we are not supposed to notice.
