That statement is a bit of a nothingburger and really is irrelevant to the subject of reparations. Taking control and fighting to right an injustice is not an example of a narcissist or someone with a victim mentality playing out a role. Empathy is not a weakness it the reason we as humans have evolved such complex social systems and got where we are as a human race. When people blame their parents for not doing well in life or the absence of a parent for their own narcissism, then yes of course people can be fooled into playing the part of an enabler or mirror for the victims own projections. When a person though is actually financially, emotionally, socially and politically actually held responsible for the sins a parent never even committed, in a very real sense it is hugely dishonest to pretend that they are just suffering from buying into a victim mentality.


When a society tries to bury the denial of justice as if it were a mere trifle, an insignificant side note, you end up with statements like yours. I do not know you personally, so i will assume it is something you are repeating, but it sounds like the words of someone trying to punish others for their own unaddressed issues.
