I think you're confused about what "playing the victim" means. When a man says he had to hit his wife because she wouldn't stop nagging him, that's playing the victim. When a woman contacts the police after receiving death threats, that's responding to a threat appropriately.
- strathmeyer 12y agoWhat is it if a woman says she is receiving threats just for attention and never informs the police?? Is that playing the victim? I shouldn't known there'd be plenty of white knights here.

I have already seen plenty of open threats to her, so arguing that nobody has threatened her can only mean you haven't seen it yet or you believe the threats only started after she claimed to be threatened. Even in that case, it proves her point. Responses I've seen from others say threats are extremely common, especially for people who comment on social issues.
