Uh, is nerd culture even the victim nowadays? At least from my viewpoint, bullying people who are into "nerd culture" simply because of the aforementioned nerd culture has gone down quite a bit, especially if you consider the fact that nerd culture is becoming mainstream. For example, everyone likes the Dark Knight, not just nerds. Everyone plays Modern Warfare, not just nerds. Everyone plays on the Wii, not just nerds. I just got into college, and throughout my education I have never seen any group of people that could be classified as nerds be bullied or marginalized for their nerdy interests. Hell, one of the English classes at my school read Watchmen. Combined with the fact that nerds of the past control the technology and entertainment history (*cough* Bill Gates *cough*) and that being brainy leads to better education, which leads to better jobs, which leads to more money, it's hard to make the case that nerds are still the victim of society.
