A persecution complex is a belief and psychological condition by which an individual or a group believes that, whenever that entity faces adversity, it must be because of symptoms beyond their control, or the hatred of their enemies. For example, someone suffering from a persecution complex will ascribe their individual failures to censorship rather than an individual problem.
