Feedback: Karpman refers to a dramatic triangle in families, groups, and organizations that includes the roles or
positions of persecutor, victim, and rescuer. The persecutor demeans and subordinates the victim, and the rescuer,
sometimes from a position of moral superiority, attempts to liberate and safeguard the vulnerable person or group.
Occasionally, a rescue may occur without the implicit or explicit consent of the rescued and, of course, the rescuer
may need to combat, defeat, and control the persecutor in the process
