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.

How Do We Protect Ourselves and Recover from Pandemic? A Wider Look at COVID-19
For those who have not had covid and had both jabs early on, protection drops to 16% which is why boosters are being prepared. Those who have had covid, you could be protected up to 2 or 3 years as with other coronaviruses. The medical press has had plenty to say about everything going on […]
Why We Must Stay Objective and the Difference Between Faith and Belief
I have found it increasingly difficult to have in depth conversations with people as it seems as if their mind is made up on many topics, which brings to mind the Arctic Monkey’s song A Certain Romance: “They’ll never listenBecause their minds are made up” (Artic Monkeys – A Certain Romance) What is the difference […]
How We Can Protect Health and Environment in One Go
Recently, people have asked on social media if we ought to have lockdowns for the environment. I can see why: reports showed that carbon emissions in the UK fell by a third as a result of quarantining us all against COVID-19. However, we need to look at the impact of any measures on a wider […]
A Coronavirus Is a Coronavirus Is a Coronavirus – What’s New?
We have heard a few times before in the medical and national press about a new or novel coronavirus transmitting in the UK. However, in 2013, various reports caused little more than a ripple. Public Health England called it a non-event. It didn’t seem to matter to the medical profession before late 2019, if your […]

In my opinion, opinions are like food: Harmless if you can see the ingredients and can trace where they come from. Hence, we digest food as well as opinions. It is a good idea to step back from one’s own opinions and look at where they come from. Perhaps, feed them into Google. It is […]
