@GinnyMcQueen in all times of conflict and feeling bad about yourself or your situation, one can ask 1 of 2 questions: either
1. who did this to me?
or
2. why did this happen to me?
the difference between the two questions is the difference between victim (blaming) and self activated hero (empowered person).

It is easier to blame a generic group for things but is it really the cause?
