This was the opposite of my takeaway. Dark personalities are just playing to win, the reason they're signaling victimhood is tied to the benefits it brings them. It's not cheating, it's a gamer's blunt acknowledgement of the metagame. If the support system is so generous that victimhood becomes advantageous you're going to find a lot of victims. We can either narrow our definitions/rewards or ignore actors who go against the spirit of the thing.

I think that you're forgetting that people with dark personalities are all too often the perpetrators against victims.

In that light this is just another instance of these kinds of people victimizing people by abusing the system to reap benefits that are meant for victims.
