Works really well, and doing nothing is exactly why western societies are fucked up.

New generations do whatever they want and do not face any consequences.

Have you seen how much of a shithole France became due to street criminality and teenagers attacking people ?

Many decades ago when I was still young, I was bullied and reported it to the authorities, but they didn't care beyond giving the usual empty "be nice and get along" verbiage. Ended up fighting the bully and gave him a few deep bleeding cuts with my nails. I got in trouble for it, but he never dared to touch me again.

That’s generally the solution for bullies. I wonder whether that is also the solution for victims, making them strong enough.

There's no denying a broken nose and some lost teeth will make many bullies twice about trying again.

Problem is it's often illegal or against the rules to do it since deliberately beating the crap out of a bully isn't self defence in the traditional sense. And in the cases where it doesn't work, the situation may escalate or the victim might end up being punished harder than the bully.

Are you a time traveller from 1900?

Note that it was a time of widespread caning and death penalty...

Not sure if I agree or disagree with you but that’s a really interesting article actually, so thanks for sharing!

No, how far away should I be to see that?
