He's probably been lapping up the white-victimization narrative from Fox News and right-wing radio for years. They're well-aware of abuses to others, which is pretty hard to avoid unless the person never attended a history class in school at all, but they work hard on rhetoric to portray themselves the equal or even bigger victims in this world.
Christians do the same crap. They're in the overwhelming majority in the USA among the religious, but they often pretend that they're still being tossed to the lions in Rome.

(14,848 posts)... I've observed it many times.
For example, I've explained to coworkers how a genetic condition caused blindness in my one eye and anxiety about loss of eyesight in the other. Rather than simply replying, "Oh, that's too bad" or something along those lines, some people will instead say "I know what you mean!" as they try to equate their need of (minor) corrective lenses to my situation.
I suspect that some of them might tell a quadriplegic that they're "lucky", because they stubbed their toe the other day and it hurt like the dickens.
