Strength does not invalidate victimhood.
Ive seen a lot of discourse, mainly in fandoms and character interpretations, but I've noticed how much that discourse effects people in their actual lives as well and how people treat each other based on that. So I feel the need to specifcally address this.
Whether you are currently a victim or have been a victim in the past, it does not mean you are incapable of being strong.
Just because you are strong does not make you incapable of being or having been a victim.
Strength and victimhood are not mutually exclusive, and moments of weakness can and will happen to anyone and everyone regardless of their strength. Physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually, or what have you. Strength is not what protects you from being a victim, it is what empowers you to keep going in spite of being a victim.
A victim of what? Well, that's open to interpretation. What am I specifically referencing with this? Nothing in particular other than distress at seeing people harm each other even when they agree with each other.
This is not exclusive to any one kind of person, this is not specifc to any race, gender, assigned sex at birth, age, religion, sexual orientation, intellectual level, disability, economic status, or any other kind of determining factor where people have been targeted and treated as other or lesser.
Your strength does not invalidate your moments of weakness. Nor do your moments of weakness invalidate your strength.
