Define bully. A bully is not someone who disagrees with you or doesn’t bend to your will.

Want to see an example of real bullying? Five months of riots supported by the Democrat Party, where ordinary citizens were assaulted, murdered, had their livelihoods and neighborhoods destroyed by mobs of people claiming to act on behalf of victims of police shootings. Again, supported by the Democrat Party and it's media lackeys.
Brandon said he didn't want our schools to become a jungle so he prefers to see our streets and neighborhood become them while parents home school and demand an end to CRT.

Some people just can't look objectively at reality. Maybe they should try shopping at Union Square for Christmas.

By the OP’s standards, anytime a cop writes a ticket for speeding, that’s a forms of bullying. Enforcing laws and mandates to make sure society stays safe and functional is not a form of bullying, that’s called being a civilized society.

People not getting vaccinated against COVID is based on misinformation and irrational fear. Millions of people around the world have been vaccinated for a whole year and deaths have remains minuscule and rare. Deaths rates have plummeted after the vaccine rollout, even though 30% still remain unvaccinated and most the deaths have been among the unvaccinated as reported by hospitals around the world.

There is a significant anti-police movement and some localities have moved to stop cops from traffic stops. Although I agree some police can be bullies, I am not part of the abolish the police movement.

The biggest mandate so far, OSHA’s work related jab requirement, has so far been found to be unconstitutional and is under a judicial stay. To enforce that “mandate” would be illegal, would it not?

Your whole second paragraph is over generalized. People are not getting vaccinated for various reasons, some related to personal health issues, religious beliefs, or other people they know who have had bad reactions to it. Some are mistrustful of this type of “vaccine”. Also death rates did not plummet after roll out; we have more deaths under Biden than under Trump. Places with extremely high vaccine rates are seeing cases and deaths spike. Austria is under new lockdowns, vaxxed or unvaxxed.

It actually doesn't take a bully. It just takes someone standing up to them. Trump wouldn't have lost if he had just stood up to them. But no, he acted no different. Bullies are easy to bait. He fell into their trap every time. American's don't want a bully.



Bullies wins are temporary. American's see it for what it is. Reckoning will come. It came for Trump. It will come for Biden.



cd :O)

Unfortunately they don't understand this.

Correct, it’s not bullying if someone doesn’t agree with you and argue or debate their opinions…. I’ve been what you would call being bullied on another site where two posters ganged up on me and on another told me he hoped I get covid.
