The Victims 

The official fanclub of the US rock band "The Killers". Fans that know every single song including demos, album tracks, b sides and christmas songs, not just Mr Brightside or Human.

Will usually reject Hot Fuss as the best album and say Sam's Town is instead. Don't just love them because of Brandon Flowers. Usually found on The Victims site, in Twitter communities or gigs. Usually noticiable by the official Victims shirt. Probably the most devoted group of fans...
You know of The Victims?

Trivialization against the Victims of Capitalism

The rhetorical minimization of capitalist harm, treating systemic failures as minor, isolated, or even humorous. It reduces profound suffering to anecdotes about “avocado toast” budgets, frames exploitation as “hustle culture,” or mocks demands for change as the whining of a “snowflake” generation.
Trivialization against the Victims of Capitalism Example: A meme showing a homeless person with a smartphone captioned, “Priorities.” This trivialization reduces the complex crisis of housing and mental health to a single, misleading image, suggesting poverty is a choice of frivolous spending rather than a systemic trap.

Logicalization against the Victims of Capitalism

The application of formal, pseudo-logical deductions to prove that victims of capitalism are either non-existent or at fault. It constructs syllogisms from debatable premises (“Markets are free,” “People are rational actors”) to “prove” that outcomes are always fair, and that therefore any victim must be illogical or lazy.
Logicalization against the Victims of Capitalism Example: “Premise 1: The market pays you what you’re worth. Premise 2: You are poor. Conclusion: Therefore, you are of low worth. QED.” This logicalization uses the veneer of airtight reason to transform a structural condition (poverty) into a personal, logical judgment, dismissing appeals to unfairness as emotional error.

Trivialization against the Victims of Western Colonialism and Imperialism

The treatment of colonialism’s legacy as a niche academic grievance, a political correctness fad, or a matter of simple statues and vocabulary. It reduces centuries of structural violence to a debate about “offense” or “changing names,” mocking demands for reparations or accountability as oversensitive.
Trivialization against the Victims of Western Colonialism and Imperialism Example: Calling for a museum to return looted artifacts and being told, “Get over it, it’s ancient history. Should we give back the Roman roads too?” This trivialization equates millennia-old infrastructure with recent, culturally sacred plunder, reducing a moral claim to a silly reductio ad absurdum.

Logicalization against the Victims of Western Colonialism and Imperialism

The construction of logical arguments that “prove” colonial subjects were, on balance, better off, or that their present-day struggles are illogical holdovers from the past. It uses selective data and formal logic to argue that the ledger of history shows a net gain for the colonized.
Logicalization against the Victims of Western Colonialism and Imperialism Example: “If colonialism was so bad, why do all those people now want to immigrate to Europe? Logically, they are voting with their feet for the benefits of the system we built.” This logicalization ignores the systemic underdevelopment and border controls created by colonialism, using a false deduction to blame the victims for their own displacement.

Logicalization against the Victims of Liberalism

Using the formal principles of liberal philosophy (individualism, social contract theory) to logically dismiss claims of systemic victimization. If rights are individual and the contract is consensual, then collective grievances or claims of embedded oppression are framed as logical category errors.
Logicalization against the Victims of Liberalism Example: “You claim systemic racism, but the law is colorblind. Logically, any disparity must be due to individual or cultural factors, not the liberal system itself.” This logicalization uses the system’s own theoretical axioms to immunize it from critique, defining any evidence of group harm as illogical from the start.

Word of the Day on October 28, 2026
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
