What, you think you're the only who had to face this shit? I had to deal with that for three years. And yes, I do know finding authorities to help you makes it worse because people will view you as the 'kid who can't do shit without a sensei to back his spine'. Did I mention getting help from an authority anywhere in my passage?

Point: Someone gets his wallet mugged, and he screams for help. Everyone just watches because it's a common thing on the streets, it just happens, and while they can stop it now they can't really prevent it from happening again, or become a target of petty revenge. So they just let the crime go on without a care. So the right course of action here is of course, '''to do nothing! Right?'''

Bull. Fucking. Shit. Sure, as I've mentioned before, getting pressure from higher authorities won't work since people will view you as weak. But getting it from their peers? Guess what, with just enough support people actually stop doing that shit because it's seriously not cool. If you getting told at or given the bad eye everyday because of your 'bullying' then even you would stop, because at that point the bully himself has become the target.

But of course, for that to happen, we need someone to actually fucking stand up for their friends, first. So the helper himself might become a target of bully. As I've said above, if you don't do anything, then you're just letting a crime to happen and fester and rot into the victim, and there ain't going to be a fucking Ursa for him to slay and somehow redeem the bully's soul every time. As for the victim himself - he's already getting thrashed every day. Who the hell gives a shit if shit escalates a bit?

You don't seem to understand that even the slightest support from other people can give the bullied courage and stand up for himself, and perhaps even find away to stop the bullying once and for all. I practically went insane the last two years in high school because of a previous trauma, and my personality and thinking had become so distorted at that time no one would help me because they're more scared of me than the bully themselves. Why? I swear to god I did everything I can to stop that shit from happening, but I wasn't lucky enough to have an Ursa to slay, and because every single one of you damn cowards just stood by and watch me fall.

You want to encourage that kind of mentality? Go ahead. But don't you dare say standing up against unfair treatment is wrong, or that standing up for someone else is wrong too.
