I've noticed tons of people troll on threads about bullying, telling parents that their bullied children are just weaklings, invite the abuse or that it's good for them to get pushed around. Or they should just "ignore" it if their kid is getting beaten up every day. At best, it's just bad advice but at worst, I suspect they get off on making the parents feel even worse about the situation. So basically, what I've noticed is any thread with "bullying" in the title attracts the bullies in mass droves.

These "trolls" are masochistic bullies who no doubt grew up bullying, abuse their children/animals, and over time have burned all of their bridges, so now they bully strangers online. They go through life angry, mentally ill and abusive. Anyone who condones violence among children is just plain psychotic.

I have zero tolerance for it.
Same here. And when they say bullying is okay or a "rite of passage" on an internet forum, they are basically promoting violence against children on a public message board. I could find dozens of postings like that here, as I've seen quite a few over a period of time. I think those people need to be named and shamed.
Deep rooted insecurity. Fear. Mental illness. Those are the main reasons. Much of that is likely a result of upbringing, lots of bad luck in life, genetics, or depression. Some people are just born that way, or it runs in the family, or they simply weren't loved enough as a child (or now).
All of the above or how about NOT getting out there and working on themselves to be a better person and learn SELF LOVE.... we were not all born with a silver spoon in our mouths and many had difficult upbringings not filled with large bags of love. In the last 2-3 decades there is so much help to reach out and get to find the love of self. And I'm talking love and respecting oneself.
They hide behind a screen name and do verbal bullying.
There are two major "grown up bullies" that follow me and attack everything I say and offer. They don't like where I come from with my opinions and experiences and therefore can only attack...aka bullying. Then a few other rolling stone bullies jump on and it spirals. Sickening...spineless. Not even childish as many children know better.

Do you report them? There is no excuse for that. I like the ignore button, but also firmly believe that sometimes it is necessary to put the fools in their place and give their own medicine right back to them. If no one says or does anything, they will go on attacking and abusing others.

I agree with this. Report them and put them on ignore. There is no excuse in that behavior.
Exactly. They get their kicks out of kicking and taking personal jabs at people, because they're miserable wretches who enjoy hurting people, ganging up on them like common bullies do. They hide behind their screens and spew things they would never dare say to someone's face. At least not to me they wouldn't, I guarantee it! They might try it once but they'd be knocked down a few pegs before they got their first lulz out. I hear what people say about others behind their backs, the cowards. One look from me and they shut up proper. It's not amusing. It's sick.
I stopped getting pushed around and putting up with 7th grade behavior, back in 7th grade.
