grievance-collecting

A particular variation of the victim card in which a person gains sympathy or social status by amassing experiences of perceived sleights or injustices. Grievance-collecting can be entirely fabricated, true, or a mix of the two. Grievance-collectors can never forgive or see another side of the story, because surrendering any grievance would result in loss of power over other people. Grievance-collecting can be personal, or part of a politically correct group dynamic.

If you call her, she will be angry. If you don't call her, she will be angry. Either way, she gets what she wants, and it will be used against you - because she doesn't actually want to patch things up. She's just grievance-collecting.

Grievance Culture

A shared narrative of victimhood that seeks to subvert and replace old traditions, cultures, and institutions to uplift the victims. Usually leads to a formation of a new moral in-group for activist movements and reparations.

The descriptive version of the Red Pill regarding male and female nature is often confused with the prescriptive versions of the Red Pill and its movements as well as its grievance cultures.
