No it's not. If I say "People who like ice cream are pedophiles/nazis/racists/martians/lightbulbs" and you respond "I like ice cream but am not a pedophile/etc, and am offended that you would think I am one because of my desire for frozen milk and sugar," that is not a claim to victimhood. That's a fairly rational response to a ludicrously antagonistic statement.
