Compassion as a Weapon Western civilization is increasingly trapped in a culture of entitlement, where victimhood can become a route to status, privilege, and power. Some elite universities report unusually high disability registrations—e.g., 20%+ at Brown and Harvard and around 40% at Stanford—far above community colleges. Whatever the causes, it raises a troubling question: when systems meant to protect the truly vulnerable become incentives, what happens to everyone else? Rob Henderson describes how accommodations can turn into “status games.” Extra time, special housing, and exemptions can make diagnosis feel like the logical choice, and the lesson travels outward: tomorrow’s leaders in journalism, HR, law, academia, and politics may learn that displaying weakness is rewarded. Research links habitual victimhood displays with traits associated with the Dark Triad (narcissism, Machiavellianism, psychopathy). That doesn’t mean genuine victims are manipulative—it means rewarding victimhood gives manipulators an incentive to enter. In the “virtue game,” grievance becomes currency. Pity can also function as covert power: the weak person gains leverage, while the giver gains moral superiority. When compassion is treated like a currency, it can become a mutually reinforcing racket. The danger isn’t helping the weak. It’s teaching that appearing weak is the surest way to gain power.

Roland G. Fryer jest rzadkim przykładem czarnego profesora topowego uniwerku, który dostał się na uczelnię nie za kolor skóry, ale za pracę naukową. Nie był oszustem, nie był plagiatorem, nie był obłąkanym mitomanem. Jego problem polegał na tym, że zrobił badania i uzyskał wyniki, które nie spodobały się władzom na uniwersytecie ani lewicowym aktywistom kontrolującym kampus. Mówimy tutaj o Uniwersytecie Harvarda. "Jeden z kolegów wziął mnie na stronę i powiedział, żebym tego nie publikował, bo zrujnuję swoją karierę. Nie posłuchałem go i opublikowałem, i potem przez miesiąc pod moim domem stała policja, a na zakupy chodziłem z uzbrojoną ochroną. Kupowałem pieluchy dla dziecka w towarzystwie ochroniarza z bronią." Groźby śmierci wysyłane przez lewicowych fanatyków to jedno. Drugą kwestią jest reakcja władz uczelni. Krótko po publikacji artykułu pojawiły się zarzuty, że Fryer flirtuje z pracownicami w swoim laboratorium EdLabs. Wytknięto mu "niepożądane zachowania o charakterze seksualnym" (głównie werbalne, w tym żarty). Harvard zawiesiła go na dwa lata bez wynagrodzenia, zamknął laboratorium i nałożył ograniczenia. Fryer przeprosił za nieodpowiednie żarty, zaprzeczył jednak zarzutom o molestowanie. Nie napisałem jeszcze, co takiego odkrył Fryer, że rozwścieczył lewicowych cerberów politycznej poprawności. Otóż odkrył, że amerykańska policja wcale nie strzela i nie zabija czarnych częściej niż białych i że użycie broni przez policje warunkowane jest zachowaniem podejrzanego. Tak, dobrze przeczytaliście. Tyle wystarczy, aby na Harvardzie chcieli cię zabić. #Harvard #BadaNaukowe #WolnośćSłowa
