It may be frowned upon, but I was taught to defend myself immediately and as hard as necessary to stop further harassment. I know this is privileged thinking on my part, being what I am, but I still believe in the principle overall when it's feasible.
I taught my little brother the same thing growing up, and witnessed it firsthand when someone tried to bully him. They never did it to him or anyone else again. I didn't need to protect him, and I was so proud of him.
I see it in my son already, too. Someone is trying to bully someone in a videogame on mic? My son doesn't even hesitate to defend them. I didn't even teach him that.
Anyways, I got off track here lol this isn't even about bullying, but I guess my principles stand. Capitalists want to bully? Fuck them up too and as hard as necessary to end their reign of terror.
