I like this statement because its vagueness has apparently allowed people with diametrically opposed viewpoints to both view themselves as the victim and the other as the perpetrator. I am not sure how to fix that, but it certainly seems like everyone is feeling persecuted regardless of any objective reality and that can't be good for us.

I think that basically sums up the state of America in 2018.
I guess it's both good and bad, though. Bad because it indicates growth has left the U.S. and we're all doing a little worse than we expected we'd be doing. Good because if everyone is feeling persecuted, chances are we've actually got this equality thing down pretty well.
