The Victim Card

Celebrity split-ups make national news. Recently, reports of Katie Holmes leaving Tom Cruise appeared – labeling him to be the bad guy and Katie, the victim.

“Tom will be seen as the evil/bad guy because she is playing the victim card while also playing the protective mother. The divorce is being portrayed as a battle over religions – Catholicism versus Scientology – and the public generally fears Scientology,” [Dr. Patrick] Wanis said. “Katie is being portrayed as fleeing the grips of powerful and controlling man who wants to brainwash her daughter, and women in particular are going to side with Katie, because women believe that they know better than men do about how to raise children.”

Don't you hate it when people use you by playing the "victim card?” It disgusts me.

The divorce of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes will become vicious because Katie is playing on the emotions of others. 

I know someone who does the same and uses that same card – no matter what game they play! This person turns up the victim heat – as needed – to use others. It is revolting to watch! 

The only thing worse is to witness a small group of people let themselves be used. 

Praise God that He has given me wisdom to see through these abusers of love – those who use love in a most selfish manner.

It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, (1 Corinthians 13:5)
