A condition similar to victimitis that causes one to often cast themselves as a victim for the purposes of self-gratification. Severe cases can lead to the person manufacturing scenarios entirely in order to maintain their victim status.
The man’s victim boner could only become fully erect when he felt that others where feeling sorry for him. That caused him to repeatedly orchestrate scenarios where he was the victim of attacks.

When a member of a group that has historically oppressed others sees the general public having empathy for oppressed people, they become jealous of that attention and they engage in mental gymnastics so that they can see themselves as some type of victim
People like to pretend there’s a war on Christmas because they have victim envy

A person who is constantly facing some sort of hardship or traumatic experience whether true, self-inflicted or completely false. Typically a person is a perpetual victim for the sake of evoking sympathy from others or being the constant center of attention. These hardships are usually extreme and can be (but are not limited to) life-threatening sicknesses, family sicknesses, deaths, natural disasters, having to pay companies for products, IRS auditing, relationship problems, not being able to make money off of Games Workshop’s intellectual property, etc.
We used to believe Eric’s problems were legitimate, then I started keeping track & realized he’s never happy with Games Workshop or their products. He never actually pays Games Workshop for anything, instead using re-casters, 3D printers, and pirating many of their books. Now he thinks he’s a victim since the company is trying to restrict these activities.
Typical perpetual victim.
