The problem is, bullying is a trait of human nature
Capture of the pirate Blackbeard
The problem is, bullying is a trait of human nature which was learned by people, probably way back, to snatch booty and to control and dominate others.
The only ways to stop bullying are:
1. To ignore it if this makes it go away. If that fails then:
2. To hit back by whatever means needed. Hit it where it hurts.
If you watch any film or programme with bullying content, the means needed to stop bullying is always to stand up to the bully. Not reacting can work in some situations but the context here is important. You need to be able to afford to ignore the bully.
Afford to ignore
It is impossible or at least very difficult to ignore someone who is pummeling your face into the ground or breaking your limbs. It is just as difficult to ignore someone tugging your lunch out of your hands when you are hungry.
In the instance of role power bullying by anyone in a position of authority over you, it is just as difficult to ignore them as, in the case of bullying, the attack against you will escalate before it stops. The escalation might cost you too much to survive it. A bully who has any power over you can leave you with:
- A loss of physical health
- A loss of income
- A loss of assets
- A loss of support when they scare off your allies
- No sign of any way out or defence
- Even a loss of life
In short: a bully will want and try to take from you as much as they can and whatever they think they can get away with. They will know no bounds and their methods will known no limits.

Last Throes of a Pandemic?
This is conjecture and an exploration, not even opinion yet. Like many of us, I have so many questions but there do not seem to be many people able or available to answer. How can such a massive campaign be launched to vaccinate people against COVID-19 without information, which allows each person to do what […]
How Minds are Captured by Corporate Hype and How to Free Ourselves
This is just a view, drawn from my angle on life. I doubt and question every opinion and conclusion I draw, to find out if there is something I haven’t seen. It is always inspiring to hear a different angle on something, which widens my perspective. A few months ago, I was chatting to the […]
How can we choose the best packaging and transport for our purchases?
Sally can barely see over the top of a hefty paper bag full of shopping because she is carrying it from the base. It is rush hour and people walk swiftly in the opposite direction, which turns taking groceries home into a high-stakes survival game. It starts to rain. While concentrating on navigating the tide […]
Keeping Our Immunity Healthy, Resisting Age-Related Weakness and Preventing Virus Spread
While researching for my healthy eating reference app, I’ve found how our immune systems can get out of whack from breaking daily activity routines (e.g. not going out to work), convalescence, being restricted to an hour outside a day, which is particularly tough on people with social anxiety. No information is provided about all the […]
