The bullies of the 90s became the techbros and aibros of today. They can’t code, but wanted to be part of the tech industry once they saw how much money there was, so got they MBAs and became the weirdo’s bosses.
nah
“Bullying works” is one of those really nasty, regressive takes that always shocks me when it appears in otherwise progressive spaces
most progressive spaces are built on bullying. not sure why you’d be shocked.
the difference is the target of the bullying.
The personalities bullies targeted in the 90s are not the personalities causing the issues with modern day society.
For the most part, you’re probably correct, but Elon Musk would’ve been bullied mercilessly in my high school, and it probably could’ve instilled some sense of self awareness if he had been.
I think the same is probably true of Stephen Miller and J.D. Vance.
He is not an actual nerd/geek tbf.
I bet Stephen Miller was bullied, that’s why he has so much to prove. Musk maybe too. Both of them get bullied quite a bit now and nothing seems to work. Although, Elon has sort of disappeared. Where is that pesky little nazi.
Building a Nazi robot army of course
Buzz (Devin Ratray) was an asshole in the movie, accused of rape in real life, and convicted of domestic assault in real life. I guess OOP could have included a picture of Tom Wilson (Biff Tannen), an arguably good person IRL, but time travel proved that he’s a legacy asshole at every stage of his life. Which is what really happens when you praise bullies. You end up with the bully billionaire presidents that all of these movies tried to warn you about.
Ahh yes, the psychological and physical abuse of a bully was a good thing in the 90s. Look at me, I’m a well adjusted individual. Just fine, no creeping sociopathic thoughts regularly, no violent ideation on my former bullies at all. Nope, perfectly normal and made to fit a mold I cannot fit in for the good of society.
Well, at least you can enjoy owning firearms with minimal to no oversight from the government, assuming you’re American.
What morons upvoted this idiocy?
I’m sorry, am I supposed to read this as putting someone on blast for being a giant fucking asshole? Cause there’s not really anything in this post to suggest that. This is fucked, my dude. Bullies take their insecurities out on their peers, there’s no benefit to such anti-social behavior. The fuck?
What? No. Why?
Yeah, I don’t get this. It sounds like a dumb take by people who want an excuse to keep bullying people.
Um no
Hell no, even.
And something tells me that she was the sort worth fighting for.
The picture was actually of a crew member’s son. They thought it would be mean to use a girl’s picture.
Yay for concentration camps … Or something.

There’s a smidge of truth in this for better or worse. Kids learned to fit in and not stand out unless they really had the confidence to pull it off. Misfits found groups to fit in by necessity for protection. Sure we repressed lots of stuff, but we learned to cope in a fucked up world better than kids these days seem to.
Disagree, social or physical bullying is about the same effect, except the risk of physically hurting someone is exchanged with the social risk of pushing people towards depression, self-harm, and suicide.
This is the real reason for the rise in autism. /s
