It's always interesting when someone blames all of this on the "Culture of victimhood in the US", because I'm not from the US and I still don't think it's acceptable. Personally, I've never felt sufficiently slighted by another to complain. But when a coworker tells me that they're unenthusiastic about continuing to work in the field because of this kind of shit, I pay attention. If your specific social situation allows this kind of behaviour, then that's fine. I really don't have any complaints at all. But if there are people who are in your social situation who are unhappy about it, you don't get to just tell them that they're oversensitive. That's not actually something that makes things better.
