Whether it's women sending themselves rape threats claiming to be republicans, Jewish students drawing swastikas on their own dorm doors, or carrying a mattress to class to shame a lover who spurned you, there is many ways to gain sympathy by playing the victim card. Even folks who are right of center have tried to claim they were battered by Donald Trump's security despite evidence to the contrary. Perhaps the most famous examples would be the profiteering of harassment by professional feminists to boost their Patreon donations. Indeed it would seem that false claims of victimhood abound everywhere with no discernible connection...
...that is if you ignore the fact that all the accusers tend to be women.
