“Lerner’s conclusion is disturbing. “The sight of an innocent person suffering without possibility of reward or compensation motivated people to devalue the attractiveness of the victim in order to bring about a more appropriate fit between her fate and her character,” he wrote. In other words, when subjects’ intuitions of justice are satisfied, their belief in a just world is supported. But when subjects (read: society) are prevented from restoring justice, they blame the victim. Somehow, the reasoning goes, she must have asked for it.”
