No anti bullying videos are like this like fights wedgies or swirlies, it’s gossip, it’s isolation, it’s teasing and the false prospect of having friends. At least for me.
@Pinkmanbutawesome
Honestly if you think bullying fell off then you were probably the bully
@Neutral_1zed
They say if you repeat a message enough times, it gets accepted. Physical bullying right now is really frowned upon — why? because like racism, we’ve grown up in an environment that repeated that same phrase over and over — we don’t want to be the bully, it’s not cool. Someone calls us out as racist? we deny, we say it’s a joke. This is where casual bullying and curious racism comes in. Curiosity that crosses the line, and teasing that is overboard. Oh yeah, and cyberbullying. This does not apply to the rest of the world.

Bullying really was a fiction. And I was a bully. I picked on smaller kids not because I wanted to make them feel bad. But, because I didn't understand boundaries. And the people I picked on never set them up. So, ignorance on my part, and weakness on their part. But it was never to the extent presented on TV.

If everyone acts like a bully, nobody can be a bully.

When I was in high school (10+ years ago), there was no stereotypical bullying like what is shown in the media. But the gossip was MUCH worse. It’s more about saying stuff behind someone’s back nowadays and spreading terrible rumors about them than confrontational bullying. Anyone who tries to shove someone into a locker these days would probably be laughed at because that’s very obviously a mean thing to do and makes them look like a terrible person. It’s the devious people who act like such “good” and “righteous” people, but then have lots and lots to say behind peoples’ backs, who are the true bullies in today’s world. It’s more about deceiving people into thinking you’re a good person, having power and control over people, and spreading rumors about people you dislike than it is about being called a loser and being shoved around.

Verbal harrassment is what bullying was for me. Like I'm minding my business, and some asshole just keeps trying to start shit and when you retaliate, you're the one in trouble.
@PeachPuff-1
Ngl bullying does happen just not to a shoving kids into lockers and giving them wedges extent it’s mostly like name calling and talking bout u behind ur back or worse talking abt u to their friends INFRONT of u like especially when it’s abt something u can’t change or something good like being helpful.like if ur gonna bully someone at least bully them for something worthwhile like being a BULLY😅
@Palomar23
Bullying was alive and well in kindergarten, elementary and middle school. Highschool not so much but I’ve been beat up before and I’ve gotten into fights for trying to stand up for myself. The aggressor always gets away with it, whenever someone who is getting bullied actually does something, the school only punishes the victim. However I’ve been doing Brazilian Jiu Jitsu since 2021 and haven’t gotten bullied since.
@StillND
You don’t need to be bullied to learn how to stand up for yourself or teach your kids how to deal with bullies. All you need is confidence and a certain amount of self respect and self love. And if necessary, some self defense. And as for the “problems” due to bullying falling off, I rather those problems exist than seeing kids offing themselves or other people, because of bullying. This is lowkey an improvement from that.
@Randomperson-yr3gp
Bullying only really happens when you don’t fire back (with insults) at them, and if they are physically attacking you get an adult
@riglowkun
1:27 so real, I've had some teacher try and be the nicest people but all it took was one person to go off on them to see them cry
@Cheesecurdle
0:23 why was this recorded at my old middle school
@iem123
Totally agree, I always roll my eyes when movies have those bullies that walk around school shoving kids in lockers and throwing their backpacks in the garbage. I’ve never seen that personally
@MisterBRye
There’s really only one bully and his goons, but every one has learned how to deal with him so
@GoRabali
The worst bullying I've ever experienced was a prank call from one of my classmates...
@Dac_DT_MKD
While in high school I didn't suffer massive bullying (only minor verbal and psychological that wasn't very harmful), elementary and middle school was pure nightmare. 8 freakin years of physical and psychological torture.
@marianojrivera8101
The problem that happened is that everyone learned to speak up for themselves. What should have been focused is people being in self control to not let their anger get the best of them. Would have saved me grief if someone told me that when I was 13 or 14.
@mrpeebs
I feel like bullying still happens kinda a lot today but its so normalized that people just go with it, like if someone says to someone else that they have a crappy outfit or smth, they ain't gonna take it personally, maybe they'll laugh it off and forget about it or say something funny back, but nobody really takes it personally. But I also do think that the anti-bullying efforts from the past 10-20 years have been successful in reducing bullying.
