The question makes no sense - why expect all minority groups to be portrayed equally as victims in the first place?
Just because many victims are minorities doesn't mean that the latter implies the former. You might as well ask why Swedish immigrants aren't seen as victims - the obvious answer is, because being a minority isn't what makes someone be seen as a victim.

It's almost like he knew that bit was a weak part of his argument, so surrounded it with examples which would put people into ideological mode instead of thinking for a moment about it.
