• Enough With This Antibullying Bullshit

Okay so in the news it seems all these soccer moms are getting boners for making every kid equal and stopping bullying. I'm not saying it's a nice thing, I'm saying that it's a vital part of life. yeah, I said it, you need bullying. Certain kinds go way to far, but let's just talk about the name calling and things like that. If it really drives you to suicide because someone calls you a 'fatty fatty two by four can't fit through the bathroom door' then balls to you, I feel sorry for their family. My point is, is that traumatic experiences make you stronger in life, my learning how to overcome these things, you will grow up an undoubtedly stronger person mentally. You're probably reading this and going 'break you dumbass being mean is not nice'. That's not my point, my point is that sure it's not always a good thing, but I'm going to go out on a limb here and say it's instinctual for kids to make fun of their peers for being different, why do you think it happens in every community, everyday all across the world. The peers have two options, go on the defensive and cry about it to mommy which does nothing half of the time, or they can go on the offensive and stand up for themselves. Example of going on the Offensive: [media]http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xhn3qv_kid-body-slams-his-bully_fun[/media] I have a doctors appointment for mono, or strep or some shit. I'll add more content later tl;dr: Bullying actually has a purpose in life and is natural instinct. Oh and this. [QUOTE=GoldenGnome;29357217]I think the OP is speaking out against all these bullshit "zero tolerance" policies. Fact is, no matter what you do, kids are going to get picked on. Social Darwinism, whether you believe it or not, is the law of the land, and as such, those who stand out for the wrong reasons will get "bullied." When the bullying is severe, and by severe I mean the kind of day-in-and-day-out belligerence, beatings, etc that drive kids to suicide, then I'm all for an intervention. But if Billy cries because Big Jimbo called him four eyes, I say sack up and deal with it.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=acds;29357627]Uh yeah it is, it's the stronger getting rid of (or holding down in the eyes of other) the weaker. Natural selection works that way, the humiliated and bullied people have a lot less chances with girls and therefore less chance of procreating (of course this doesn't really work because usually by the late teens people grow up a bit and usually stop working like we did 100000 years ago).[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=SCopE5000;29364315]They don't care what you think of them and that's why they don't get bullied. If you didn't care what they thought of you, you wouldn't call them douchebags, you wouldn't react, and you probably wouldn't get bullied.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=V3nom;29364485]I just hate how people think that they can completely eliminate bullying altogether. As long as there is life on planet Earth, there will forever be bullying. No matter how hard you try to stop it. That, and why the fuck are people so weak nowadays? I really think kids need to start learning at an early age to not give a single flying [b]fuck[/b] about what other people think of them.[/QUOTE]
gimme your lunch money
Not everyone can or will fight back.
in my opinion, bullying is a personal problem, if you have problems with bullying, deal with it yourself by reporting it, we dont need people dragging others into it, bullying has always been here and will stay
Please Do Not Encourage Bullying! My Son Timothy Has Been Bullied His Entire Life Simply Because He Is Different From The Rest Of The Boys. He Doesn't Like To Talk A lot And Sits Alone In His Corner Playing With Lego's But He Is A Very Normal Boy Who Loves Playing Soccer, Video Games, And Most Importantly Jesus :-) God Bless!

Huh? Content? I was too busy watching the fat kid bodyslam the little kid.
Wow. Bullying is [b]not[/b] instinctive. Bullying is not helpful in any way, in my opinion. If, for example, you are overweight, you don't need others to constantly mock and insult you for you to realise that it is a problem. Traumatic experiences [i]can[/i] make you stronger, but they also can scar you for life.
Right, you can only push people so far before they at least try to fight back though.
Soccer moms are bloody communists
Something needs to be done to stop bullying, although simply making crazed youtube videos is not the way to go about it.

Learn people to stand up for themselves, rather then trying to stop them from being bullied.
I especially like the title of the video. "kid body slams his bully fun"
The problem isn't the bullying, people teach their kids that they are all 'mr/miss special' and as such have no idea what to in that sort of circumstance, that makes then seem like weaklings and as such ideal targets for their relentless taunting. This causes a terrible loop where the bully does some bullying, cause the victim to become unsure, and appear even weaker, and so on and so forth. It doesn't help that some people are just dicks who have no place in society.
I can't tell if the fat kid or the skinny kid is the bully.
I agree. At this rate the world of tomorrow will be filled wih spineless fucks who can't even motivate themselves to get or do anything for themselves because once they encounter any criticism they'll give up cause mommy won't be there to protect them.

Or you know, listen to the bullies and lose weight? Or just fucking stand up for yourself, it's not that hard...

It sounds like you're trying to convince us that if there were no bullying in the world, people would wander about the street wearing Thomas the Tank engine pyjamas while playing hide and seek with their imaginary friends.
im in a wheelchair and when I roll down a ramp all the kids stomp on my foot brake and I flip how do I stand up for myself?
"Make you stronger"? Really? Don't get me wrong, I know that soccer moms can go overboard, but I got bullied for a while, to the extent I practically break down into tears when I hear this one jingle that they used to taunt me with.

[QUOTE=breakyourfac;29356726]Or you know, listen to the bullies and lose weight[/QUOTE] One girl i know became bulimic in a similar situation, she turned hot though net gain for cruel humanity
Yeah, it's instinctive, it's pack menatality, alpha dogs and whatnot, the problem is, it's wrong, this mentality not only supports itself on ridiculous standards (physical strenght), it supresses ideas. Secondly, you should suffer early to not suffer later? It defeats its pupose, you get all kinds of mental issues afterwards, and if bullying is good because it makes people more resistant to bad things, then being on the opposite spectre makes you weaker. And bullies are not bullies because they are stronger, they are so because they give less shits about others, which makes them stronger only empathy-wise.

Not everyone is strong enough to fight others in both terms of mentally and physically. You are basically endorsing that people who are strong enough should face the bullies, while the weak ones should just keep on suffering until they are emotionally corrupt enough to kill themselves like natural selection.

Yes, some degree of negative experiences can help to build a nerve and tolerance, but once somebody is really bullied, it helps nothing. Ask any fucking psychologist.
