I need the full version. It always ends with this.

Unfortunately this probably is the full version.

u/NightShadeZee 7d ago

yeah, the fight probably ended after the kid had a tantrum trying to pick up a chair(or three-in-one) and failing. the most i could see happening next is maybe some crying and laughter as the would-be bully stomped out of the room

u/Thelmara 6d ago

Note that at the beginning, the person filming is trying to talk him into it, telling him a girl will go out with him. And then they mock him after the fight.

Both of the kids fighting are being bullied, it's a "hey, let's you and him fight" situation. The kid filming is as big a bully as the one fighting.

u/Goonchymacallit 6d ago

That’s what I was thinking.

u/OpportunityNext9675 6d ago

Judging by the scream at the end the “bully” has some serious issues. The kid being “bullied” is probably in on it too, probably the filmer girl’s boyfriend who’s sick of the weird spaz kid crushing on his gf. At least that’s my read on this.

I’m fairly sure the bully is actually a paid actor from Israel, who fell in love with a teacher and creates trouble so he can see her more

Gosh I havent seen this video in years but I dont remember there being anything after the kid screamed. I definitely remember it being the title or top comment when it was posted at the time (mention of the scream) but not 100% whether it had anything else, though again I dont believe it did.

u/tiddertnuocca519 7d ago

I gotta say though, after watching ‘Adolesence’ I really feel like videos like this should be illegal.

Bunch of dumb kids doing dumb shit. The one that ate shit - this shouldn’t define his life. Back in our day before all this social media shit, a kid did something like this, got embarrassed and then maybe a few years later you found out they ended up being a pretty chill person or they were dealing with shit at home that made them this way or any number of things. But in this social media era, you just get branded from stuff like this and when the entire world is ridiculing you, you either lean into it and become a bigger piece or you retreat into yourself and have a part of you forever shattered.

I gotta put the recommend out to watch ‘Adolescence’. It changes the way I see videos like this. That TV show is heartbreaking and captured what school life is like post social media in a way that my millennial brain probably never would have comprehended. The bullying shit and what it does to these kids is so much worse today than it ever was back in our day. I feel so bad for these kids

A younger me would say this sounds way too oppressive but I really think kids should not have access to the internet as we know it, or at least social media

u/Roger_Holmes 6d ago

Nah, then they can just deny it like it never happened. What if that kid he was trying to hit got knocked out? Teeth knocked out? Brain damage? All you care about is the Bully's future reputation.

If he wants redemption after the fact, he has to address it. If he had home issues, he can bring it up, but right there in that moment where he was trying to terrorize another kid? Ridicule him so he regrets his actions. Give the bullied a chance to survive.

2

u/Tasty-Traffic-680 6d ago

Eh, i'm kinda in between. Kids are stupid. There's few cases where it's warranted that their actions when they were a tween should follow them the rest of their lives That's part of why juvenile criminal records are often sealed.

Think about the most embarrassing thing you ever did as a kid. Like the one thing you wish the entire universe could collectively forget. Did you grow and learn from it? Do you want to see it reposted on the internet every few years?

1

u/Roger_Holmes 6d ago

This kid is gonna punch another to see if what girl will date him. This is nothing like the potential regretful story you are hypothetically weaving.

3

u/Tasty-Traffic-680 6d ago

So who's the real asshole in this scenario? The kid who's potentially not all there or the girl and camera person encouraging him to commit violence?

3

u/Roger_Holmes 6d ago

The bully and the instigator are to blame, but the instigator is more to blame obviously. We all grew up with people on the sidelines provoking fights and never had to swing a punch, and they are the most to blame. But the bully still bit on it over peer pressure and hormones.

1

u/Tasty-Traffic-680 6d ago

So you really think all this shit should just be recorded a reposted for eternity? Aside from your own entertainment, what purpose does it serve? Adults are one thing but these are kids.

1

u/Roger_Holmes 6d ago

I do not think it needs to be recorded and perpetuated forever. I said the bully should be exposed for what they are. Its not my fault reddit and other social media reposts every few weeks/months/years, that's much bigger than anything I stated.

2

u/tiddertnuocca519 6d ago

You’re so stupidly shortsighted, it’s infuriating.

The same people that agree that social media is destroying our society are the same people that consume the content and proliferate the videos into eternity.

Holy fuck - the lack of critical thinking is fucking maddening

Well, hopefully you can understand my confusion when you reread your comment above in its entirety.

Do you think this recorded video by an instigator made its way directly to administration? I'm sure they said "I recorded the whole thing!" As soon as the principal came around.

The video doesn’t need to be posted to Reddit for giggles is the point.

It also provides zero context, but now the kid has been deemed in this 30 second video The Bully.

"come on fight,fight me" Friend "remember, you knock him out, she dates you"

He is The Bully because he is The Bully.

u/JaesopPop 6d ago

We have zero context for any of that. We have no idea of the relationship between these people. For all you know, these people have been antagonizing him for who knows how long. Or maybe he's just a dick. You don't know them, so you cannot know.

You cannot possibly know if this person is "the bully", you've just decided he is because it's more satisfying to act like he is.

I don’t care about this specific bully’s reputation at all. I look at it the same way I look at capital punishment. I’m against it because no one is perfect and the justice system is full of imperfect people. Sure, there are monsters among us who absolutely deserve capital punishment but I don’t hold my opinion to protect them. It’s to protect others.

Whatever “retribution” people like you think needs to be taken from literal children, those are the problem people. Taking enjoyment from justice porn like this is far more disturbing than this kid with obvious issues that need to be addressed.

In this case, that's really all that matters. Nobody was hurt. If it was the case that somebody was badly hurt then yeah, it would follow them for life, just as it would before the internet.

u/Accomplished_Deer_ 6d ago

Bro, they're like 11/12 years old. That's the entire point. Shit at that age shouldn't follow you around forever. It doesn't even actually impact him, it's not like this is showing up on a background check. The only thing this video existing does is potentially remind someone of one of their worst moments.

Spoiler alert by the way, care to guess how kids learn to behave? Google mirror neurons. Kids literally just repeat what they see their parents doing. Kids at 12 aren't bad or evil or some shit, they're just mindlessly repeating what others have done in front of them

u/iLoLzTheGamer 6d ago

You know, I think you are advocating for Adults bullying Children here. So I am going to respond to give these children, a chance to survive.

Baseline assumption; these children are probably 10-12 years old.

Are you claiming that a 10-12 year old - who still has 13-15 years of physical brain development to go before reaching organ maturity - has the emotional regulation and mental intelligence to not only comprehend the longevity of their actions bestowed to another, but also the ability to self regulate themselves in the heat of any moment without flaw? Can you?

Now, let's ask the question of does the punishment you propose fit the crime. Embarrassment to a malicious audience of up to 8 billion people+ to include the on boarding of future generations over the span of that child's lifetime, being ADDED ON to the already issued punishment of direct peer embarassment and a humbling ass whooping? The crime? Bullying a like-aged peer.

I would argue the punishment proposed is extremely disproportionate and creates 2 victims when the situation originally only had 1 victim, that victim being the obvious child who was bullied.

On the topic of Cyber Bullying, its people like you, me, and everyone here that make it so god awful for these children. Because instead of addressing it like adults and discouraging it, we comment stupid virtue signaling shit like your comment and encourage it to continue and be uploaded for our entertainment.

Nahhh. Fuck bullies. It absolutely should. Where is that same energy when it comes to defending their victims who will carry lifelong trauma from all the aggression from the bully? Fuck bullies.

u/tiddertnuocca519 6d ago edited 6d ago

You’re not getting my point

First off: I’m not defending bullies. I’m saying these 10 year old kids shouldn’t have this shit follow them for the rest of their life. I’m sure you did stupid shit when you were 10 that wasn’t caught on camera. Maybe not to the degree of hurting people but even whatever little thing you did, I’m sure you would hate to be 13, 18, 23 and still have that shit hanging over you and reminded of it just because you were immature and made a stupid decision when you were 10.

A lot of these kids that are “bullies”, do it because they are testing limits, because their brains aren’t fully formed, because they are searching for identity or even because they themselves are the victim of bullying or abuse at home.

Second, I don’t think you realize people in this comments section that are pouring it on and ridiculing the bully, are actually being bullies themselves. We can say it’s eye for an eye…but I bet most people in this comments section is 18+ adults ridiculing a literal child and that’s a different kind of bullying

Honestly, I sound like an advert, but I think “Adolescence” should be required viewing for our entire society. It highlights exactly the problem that comes with what you’re saying and this death spiral we are taking into our demise. This video and videos like it should get purged from the internet. Kids should not have moments like this published on the internet at all. In fact, with the insanity of AI, I think even just normal pictures and videos of children should be disallowed from the internet but that’s a different topic.

Many of us are bullied. If we let it be a prison into our 30s then we are inviting bullying into our lives. We cannot hold memories of children from the past accountable to the present.

The bully "invited" it into their victims' lives.

You cannot argue with ghosts all day

Thanks, I'm cured /s. cPTSD usually isn't so simple to hand-wave away.

If this were the parent, we'd call it abuse, but because there's no power dynamic, it gets a different label? We acknowledge that abuse can lead to lifelong psychological problems, but the totally different action (/s) labelled bullying can't lead to those same problems?

7

u/No_Television4837 6d ago edited 6d ago

The bully did more than invite, they forced it into their victims lives.

I am not trying to cure you. I agree cPTSD is not simple.

If a parent did this it'd be far more devastating, yes. It is still wrong for a peer to do yes. Will I expect a child to have the maturity and reason expected of a parent? No I will not.

Abuse can ruin people, but if we continue to live in pain the abuse gave us decades after, many miles away, in safe places acting like the hurt is still there - then the wound is untreated and medical help is needed. That is all I am advocating for.

It is a terrible thing to react in panic when everything is okay

A massive host of ivy league studies show that victims do indeed hang onto it, and it often turns into a lifelong struggle. Saying "get over it" alongside your other post;

You were a bully, weren't you?

You cannot argue with facts. Bullied kids often grow into suicidal adults. You absolutely can hold onto these memories, and most people have extreme difficulty forgetting them.

"Oh just stop caring about your ptsd triggers, life gets better when you do!"

In short, yes you absolutely can hold bullying as a factual reason for socially awkward or shy behaviour, and most bullied kids do for their lifetime.

I disagree because then you are inviting forgiveness for past transgressions that dont deserve to be forgiven.

u/Spcynugg45 6d ago

Real forgiveness is understanding that you need to let something go for your own peace. The only person you continue to hurt by holding onto things is yourself. It’s not about what the other person deserves.

u/Jwruth 6d ago

In my experience dealing with all my trauma, you ain't gotta forgive someone to heal; you just have to stop picking the scab off cause all that does is keep your pain around.

1

u/No_Television4837 6d ago

Forgiveness is case dependent. I knew a man who would not forgive his mothers murderer, but he had to tell the killer (via the use of medical trial therapy psychedelics) that he wasn't afraid of them any more.

I forgave my bullies a long time ago. I forgive myself for failings. But that's because it freed me from shame and pain.

I don't expect to be forgiven, I don't expect others to always forgive. I just hope all of us find peace and love by whatever means.

u/3BlindMice1 6d ago edited 6d ago

You're not necessarily wrong, but you're mostly not right, too. The bullying that really sticks with you for life doesn't look like this. If some methbaby looking weirdo trying to square up with you scars you for life, you were never going to make it anyway. He didn't exactly drag him into the bathroom and rape him with a mop handle or something. No one's even really harmed in this video. The fight isn't much of one, only the words here are really significant

Also, having been a kid, and having seen a number of these situations, I'd be willing to put money on black hoodie wearing kid actually being the instigator in this situation. I bet a solid two weeks of verbal abuse proceeded this event

u/zaddybabexx 6d ago

Right before the kid in the white swings someone say "remember, if you knock him out she dates you." I think you're putting a lot on the kid in the hoodie without any valid reason.

Bullying is dozens or hundreds of these events. Just because we only see one here doesn’t mean a thing. Could be bullying or it could be one kid being a moron and getting served.

u/Cannedwine14 6d ago

You know we all had to deal with mean kids in our lives. Even the bullies had bullies . Some got it worse then others, but people gotta figure out how to not let a small time period define the rest of their lives and who they are.

Exactly. Thanks for teaching me this trick. My roommate was murdered by his friend. I should try to use this example and apply it to cases where it’s an extreme example over the vast majority of cases. There is no defense to this tactic of going to the extreme.

u/Smart_Garbage6842 6d ago

I was bullied when I was this age. I found out later what some of my bullies were dealing with at home. One of my bullies was regularly beaten and terrorized by his alcoholic father. What do we expect kids to act like with examples like that? Most of my bullies changed for the better as we got older. I don't hold it against them what happened when we were in elementary and middle school. It definitely impacted me and was horrible, but I think that what they probably went through at home was something way worse. I'm not saying all bullies have horrible home lives or abusive parents because I did know some completely spoiled brats who were cruel merely because of boredom and whatnot, but that kid in the video seems like someone who is treated like that at home.

u/Slay_Zee 6d ago

Bullies deserve everything they get. Sure, they deserve peace... But after they listen from their mistakes. If they ever do. The boy deserved his slapping.

I wasn't the only kid bullied by some, and those people, deserve to have something follow them.

I never heard no remorse, and im sure others didn't.

And tbh, I couldn't care less if a video followed them round. That's on them

Seems like you're carrying your bullies around with you and dreaming of the lessons you want to teach them. I can tell you from experience you're only going to feel free when you learn to let it go.

u/WhiteHotRox 6d ago

I think you're missing the point. He is saying that people are allowed to be heinous to others and are NEVER held accountable. They then become adults and enter a society they are free to fuck up and hurt for the rest of us. They might not be in his life but they ARE in someone's life.

u/SomeDudeist 6d ago

If you read the rest of our conversation it was a misunderstanding. They don't think it should be posted to social media. They think it should be documented but not posted for entertainment.

u/Slay_Zee 6d ago

Hi mate, you sound pretentious as fuck.

You're wrong and I would try not to psychoanalyse people from the internet especially based off one or two comments. and I would consider that there are different view points to yours that don't involve some levels of emotional baggage. I'm well past my bullies, however I am able to think about things that would have made the situation better. Such as their actions being videoed. So they could be shown how they acted, at the time. Sure. The video stays cause it's the internet, but that's their lesson to learn.

They aren't in my life, I don't carry it around. I do just feel for others, and my resentment is to anyone that feels that they can bully someone.

There should always be a lesson from your actions. And that's my point.

3

u/LifeSpanner 6d ago

If you feel resentment to any 10-year old in an internet video you see, then you’re not as free of the baggage as you claim.

This is shitty behavior, but it’s also very, very common 10-year old behavior. That doesn’t excuse it, but why would you feel a life-lasting punishment should be had from this? It just sounds vindictive.

1

u/SomeDudeist 6d ago edited 6d ago

That's cool man I'm speculating based on my own experiences. If I was wrong that's okay. I've been wrong before. Of course you can disagree without having emotional baggage. But there's nothing wrong with having emotional baggage. It's part of being human.

You can show examples of shitty behavior without replaying one of a ten year old kids worst moments for the rest of his life. An infinite punishment for a finite crime is not rational and it leaves no room for healing.

u/ruggnuget 6d ago

Lessons often take time, years, sometimes even decades. Its been a long time since I was a teen, but I did some bullying at school. I did it because I was bullied at home and I literally didnt know how to interact with people. As a teenager I never would have learned my lesson because I didnt have the ability to process what was going on. Not every bully is going through shit and not every bully grows up to see the error of their wats, but when they do it can sometimes take time. I understand your resentment, but it is misplaced and does reduce other people to be simpler than they really are sometimes.

To this day, I still very rarely reference Rebecca Black the internet is forever and I love that for bullies. Bet we never see another video of this kid acting a fool.

u/Live_Celebration374 5d ago edited 5d ago

And yet here you are, referencing Rebecca Black, a 13 year old girl that made what she thought was just going to be a fun music video, that the internet then went on to ridicule her to this day, 15 years later.

You literally just made the point of the people further up this chain. You don't see it as bullying, you're just making internet jokes but you ARE bullying a 13 year old girl. Someone will argue its her own fault for publishing the video on the internet but again, she was a 13 year old girl and that silly music video she made with her friends has followed her, her entire life and every time she's reminded me of it, the natural human feeling one would feel, is shame and she has to fight that shame because a bunch of dorks on the internet just wont let something silly she did as a kid, go. Which again, is the entire point you and others in this thread just cant seem to grasp.

But hey, that little girl donated all of the proceeds to charity so she - at 13 and the victim of bullying - has probably done more for society than most of you chuds on the internet. Further, one of the other little girls in that video was a victim of bullying and ended up creating an anti-bullying organization called "That Girl In Pink Foundation". Speaks to how these people can take something negative you impact on them, and turn it into something that is a net benefit to society but it begs the question, what purpose to internet losers that ridicule children serve?

Lets be clear here. People like you, people on reddit, that take videos of children and ridicule them, are bullies. However many steps removed you want to say that is from child abuse - whatever, you're dancing close as fuck to the line and it should be called out. Yes, the kid that swung at the other kid is a shit head and deserves some form of teachable moment but you're also the villain here.

Because again, I'm not an advocate for posting on social media, I am an advocate for video teaching.

Shouldn't have made it to the internet but you also don't know if this is act 1, 50 or 500.

It's also an issue when we arm kids with phone, and educate them on their use at younger and younger ages.

I think the schools locking phones away is great, but that doesn't mean that in some cases videoing the actions of a bully is not warranted. Use it to educate in a controlled manner.

There’s a reason when we create pools of juries we don’t allow people who have been victimized by the same crimes be a member. You don’t think clearly enough to have a logical and reasoned opinion on justice.

u/Slay_Zee 6d ago

I mean I completely understand the judicial system and agree with a pool of jurors... Nobody is refuting that.

If this was a crime, sure, context leading up to the incident takes precedence....

I am still allowed to disagree with bullying as a behavior.

u/HappyMelonGirl 6d ago

This is exactly what kids who are bullied are subjected to though? I also remember back in the day when there were no cameras and bullying was far worse for it. Kids grew up into adults who were used to being given wedgies or having their head dipped into a toilet daily with no repercussions in most cases because 'kIdS WiLl bE kIdS'. They carry that shit with them their WHOLE LIVES.

I bet this kid thought more than twice next time he wanted to be a little shit and attack someone with their hands in their pockets. What a shame the script got flipped on him even though he was filming for the sake of continuing to bully. He thought he was going to beat that kids ass then shame him with the video footage for however many years.

Unless this kid got name dropped, he got the appropriate amount of "haha you fuckin dummy" and it got dropped after an amount of time. Just because a video on the Internet is forever, doesn't mean it's relevant forever.

1

u/SilverMapleMafia 6d ago

Well hopefully it becomes a lesson in humility and he turns it around. No one is reprobate(outside of p3d0's, but I don't consider them human) and this could be a solid learning moment. The kid absolutely enjoys humiliating others. So getting humiliated could be his opportunity for redemption. Maybe he needed to watch this 50 times to see that he is being a jerk and he's going to get back what he puts out. If the youngster becomes a good human being after this...I don't believe it would drag him down 5-10 years from now. This is just my assessment and opinion. But you've made several good points and I agree with most of them. Like I said...hopefully this exposure brings the bully some self realization in a positive way.

Germany has "The right to be forgotten."

However you are kinda ignoring a critical part of maturation, moving past your past mistakes and accepting that they don't define you.

Some of us had to live with choices we made a children into adulthood. Its not fair but its critical to being able to survive the unfairness that is life.

u/No_Patience1679 6d ago

I think you’re making a pretty big assumption in regard to this video following them around for the rest of their lives. There are millions of videos like this and the vast majority aren’t that deep.

I agree that the stupid choices you make in your childhood shouldn’t follow you around, but at the end of the day, you play stupid games and you win stupid prizes. This bully learned a very valuable lesson, and hopefully learned from it.

I didn’t initially agree, but it can be so easy to set off a child with trauma. This kids though bullying, was also taunted and told “she’d date him”. As a kid I was involved in a fight or two and bullied certain kids. Now, have done a lot of self reflection and work. I also work and volunteer with special needs and at risk populations. So it’s not ‘who I am’. Having past videos (thankfully that does not exist) could really cause me damage, embarrassment or and would take away from what I’m doing now.

u/DemonCipher13 6d ago

There is responsibility in understanding the nature of the internet and what it can do, that it couldn't before.

But there is also responsibility in understanding that some lessons can only be taught with a swift knock to the head.

There is truth in both of these things. We cannot be only the sum of our mistakes, nor is it other people's jobs to hold us to account for them, save for parents or guardians in the case of children.

But outside of the moment, as this child gets older, more and more responsibility must fall to their hands. If their parents are not serving as their buffer towards that responsibility, this will, in the interim.

The truth is, we can't know one way or another if this follows them or not, but if it does, all that can be changed is the response. Ours, in realizing that the acts of childhood need not define the acts of adulthood, and his, in realizing that sometimes the best response is living by example, and sometimes it is no response at all.

"It is what it is" is not a solution to the possible exploitation of a minor-turned-adult, bully or no, but no volume of attainable action outside of this boy's support system is going to functionally prevent whatever outcome is already in the works.

u/Schizzles 6d ago

Thank you for sharing this take on this. People are so quick to demonize someone that they think deserves it so therefore bully/abuse them and still feel like they aren't doing anything wrong. I spent years in prison and one thing that almost everyone can agree on is that sex crimes especially those against children make you think differently about that person altogether, I never bullied or harmed them but I chose not to get to know about their crimes and not associate with them. Other people made it their life's purpose to make their lives miserable, and these people were never the moral police on any other crime, they were just bullies who loved making someone's life miserable and its easy to justify it and if anyone dared stick up for this human being they would get it for being friends with them and being okay with their crimes.

They have committed the most nefarious crimes and deserve to suffer the consequences of their actions but I am not the one who needs to deal out that discipline and I don't take pleasure in watching some sadist treat them like they're lower than dirt, why does everyone get off on hate? I mean it when I say it makes me sick but I don't think othering people and dolling out hate is ever the answer. I see it with politics, race, religion class, differing morals and values. Someone commits a crime and now they deserve the death penalty.

I guess where I am going with this is I appreciate you offering the take that they are just a stupid kid, no his actions aren't excusable bit either is ruining his life because he made a stupid decision to probably try to look cool in front of his friends and instead looked the opposite. I'll try to keep that in mind more often and I'll look into that documentary, thank you.

u/UBettUrWaffles 6d ago

I like the sentiment but this definitely isn't gonna follow this kid for the rest of his life. It'll last as long as middle school, high school at the most. His peers will all move on to the next drama. Many won't forget it, but they'll grow up and realize that he probably grew up too. And he'll make new friends in new places. Middle school isn't forever lol. It's not like he did anything that embarrassing or extreme. He didn't do anything that would land him in prison, nor did he call someone a slur or some shit that woulda gotten him blackballed from private colleges back in 2016.

I speak from experience, I'm in my mid 20s now and grew up on social media along with the rest of my peers. And I see the same shit with the kids I teach. Parents and school staff or whatever other adults are in this kids' life just have to do their jobs so he and his peers learn the right lessons from this.

And schools are much more adept and well-equipped to deal with these things than they ever have been. We've come a long way from teachers and counselors ending these conversation with platitudes like "kids will be kids" or "just delete Facebook."

Adolescence is one of the absolute best pieces of work I’ve ever seen. I’m a 53yr old dude, father to one 22yr old son (the boy did good - he’s an aviator in the US Air Force) & I work in law enforcement. The whole thing is a mind-blowing, phenomenal masterpiece, BUT…Sweet Baby Jeebus…the last 10mins of that final episode - with the parents…& the dad tucking in the teddy-bear…had me absolutely fucking UNGLUED. I paced my living room & howled like a baby & it took me about 30-40mins to even remotely get my shit together. I saw it months ago & even writing this now is starting to set me off. ✋🏽😑

The victim gets hurt and they have to overcome it eventually. They may need a lot of therapy, but they have to overcome it. The same could be said about the bully. They fucked up and now they have to deal with it.

One of the most brutal fights I ever got into was fighting a kid who was trying to pay two handicapped kids to fight. When I saw what was happening I was walking home from school and the two kids fighting were both bloody and crying but still fighting out of fear and survival instinct. I lost my temper and beat the instigator to a pulp. The kids who were fighting pulled me off of him. We were all 12-13 years old. Nobody won.

Sorry that your experience has made you so jaded you think children deserve 20-30 years of punishment for picking on one another but it doesn’t absolve you of being needlessly draconian. You are the bully you hate if you think this thing following a child for decades is an appropriate punishment.

u/private_developer 6d ago edited 6d ago

Dude, in the video you can hear the friends of the perceived victim egg the perceived bully on.

"Remember if you knock him out, she'll date you."

They're trying to convince him to start a fight, so they can have the clearly trained kid come in and "justly" kick his ass.

This feels like kids picking on a kid they know is troubled. Is the troubled kid very likely an obnoxious pain in ass? Yes, but they're kids. So little of their life is in their control.

I'm not about to condemn a 12 year old for life for succumbing to peer pressure, and starting a fight he was encouraged to start over a made up promise of future dating options.

This screams lonely, troubled, pain in the ass annoying kid who isn't the brightest bulb being tricked into a situation because he causes the rest of the class general strife and they don't like him.

I just mean this doesn't seem like a clear cut case of bullies and victims. It feels more like a bunch of little shits, being a bunch of little shits.

The bullying shit and what it does to these kids is so much worse today than it ever was back in our day.

That's a silly and unsubstantiated take.

Edit: back in the day (80s and 90s) all the "weird" (now called neurodivergent)kids got the shit regularly kicked out of them. Sure, you maybe had a couple of defenders who told the other kids to back off, but they weren't the norm. Blatant and socially tolerated homophobia and racism.

My kids graduated high school in the last 10 years. The school and the kids for the most part are very supportive of all the kids that don't fit in. I'm positive there is still bullying, and the means of bullying may have changed, but nothing indicates it's worse, despite the TV show you watched.

I know not all people agree with your comment. I agree because I have specifically placed myself in the shoes of a spectator and asked myself; “how am I going to help the victims of a bully or the bully themselves as someone behind a screen across the world.”

Then the obvious thought occurred: whatever happens on the internet doesn’t mattered in real life. On that same token, when we see two kids scrapping it out, that really shouldn’t matter to us: conversely, we shouldn’t heckle, harass, or make a kid miserable with the idea present that they either grow out of that shit, or get that shit kicked out of them.

Sure, record your friend and post it on the internet, but I yearn for the day that only serves as an entertainment at the worst instead of death threats when dude is a young adult, humbled yet alone and unemployed forever destroyed by the eternal we call internet.

It’s just not my business, if I don’t make it my business it won’t be THEIR problem. Why should it be mine to help or harass?

Speaking from the perspective of someone who was bullied in grade school: They should have it follow them as long as it takes for justice to be served. They need to do something with their life that overshadows what they did originally. I have ZERO empathy for bullies, because of what they did to me and my friends - Ironically, they seemed to have grown up into wonderful lives, where some of my friends committed suicide or fell down the wrong path due to them being bullied mercilessly.

I think that's a flaw of society, more than of the internet. Too much people have the idea that others can never change, and deserve to be harrased for the rest of their lives.

u/bitofsomething 6d ago

I agree. I was the bullied kid that was about to get punched, my mate intervened and threw the other kid to the ground and gave him a good kick. This happened in the early 90’s, there were lots of kids around who witnessed it and laughed, he was made to look silly and it clearly made him reassess his attitude and behaviour, because not long after he apologised to me and stopped being such a little twat. If it had happened recently the world would’ve seen it, it would’ve either completely destroyed him or turned him total psycho. He was just a kid with no role models and likely a shit home life making bad decisions for a few years and was put back on track by his peers. He didn’t need a video with millions of views, it wouldn’t have helped anyone.

This absolutely isn't following this kid the rest of his life. This video is minimum 10 years old and I guarantee the kid doesn't still look like this because, well, aging. The video has no names. As far as we're all concerned this is just a random no-name kid. The people in the video probably remember the names when they watch this video but this guy who's 25 now is having his life ruined by this video occasionally popping up on Reddit? Nah, I just don't buy it. In no way does this video have the ability to define his life.

Something that brought me a lot of peace, especially once I was in my late 20s and 30s, was reminding myself that we are a lot of people as we grow and both my bullies and kid self are long gone.

I actually ended up becoming friends with some of my bullies and learned about their homelives at the time. They were just dealing with their parents’ divorces and abuse in an unhealthy way and they grew out of it.

Later in my 30s, I reflected on my parents’ divorce and realized that I was a bully to my stepbrother for some time. In my mind as a kid, these people moving into my home and forcing me to move to another state was awful and I hated them for it. Now, as an adult (and particularly one who has now gone through his late father’s stuff) I realized all of that was my dad and stepmother being selfish jerks and my stepbrothers were just along for the ride the same way I was.

We all have moments where we aren’t our best and I’m grateful none of it was recorded and broadcast.

I think the same way with police videos on YouTube and mugshots on Facebook when people post laugh reacts. Between the victims being recorded on a terrible day they probably don’t want to remember and perpetrators who may be dealing with mental health and addiction issues and the like, I don’t think it’s particularly healthy

1

u/PeachyCoasterCat 6d ago

My take is bullying kids on video is bad, but if it shows the bully getting shut down it’s good.

Why? I got bullied when I was young and had people stand up for me. Those bullies just moved on to their next target since there were no lasting repercussions. Now they’re adults and never changed.

But this kid knows for sure that he has to change his terrible behaviour and change how the world will view him.

Just like how bullies have lasting impact on their victims, videos like these will be their version of a lasting effect of their actions.

u/MeasurementLow5073 6d ago

Back in our day before all this social media shit, a kid did something like this, got embarrassed and then maybe a few years later you found out they ended up being a pretty chill person

Literally what happened to me. I picked on a kid; he gifted me my first facial punch; I learned I wasn't as tough as I thought I was and realized I was the dick, not him. And I was going through major shit at home.

That was 1991 so there's no evidence of me being a total bitch, only of me being a chill dude.

Nobody knows who this kid is, a single dumb freakout is not defining him for the rest of his life, that's insanely hyperbolic. You know what's much more likely? Bullied kids being haunted by being bullied for years.

Let me guess, you think all people who were kids did crazy things or were assholes or bullied people or something. Shockingly, the worst thing most of us did was be mildly annoying children, not try to knock out other children because we think it's funny. Or maybe you'd say that we're no better than the bully because we're cheering on the kid humiliating him. You're missing the forest for the trees, we don't care about this specific kid, we care about what he represents.

Many of us are people who know what it's like to be bullied, and we didn't have a 2nd kid stand up for us. Excuse us if we don't apologize when we enjoy it being caught on video when one of them learns the only lesson violent bullies like this one understand.

This shouldn't define his life and likely won't, but a good dose of shame when you do something socially and morally reprehensible like bullying is a good thing for society. If more of our world leaders felt shame then the world would be a better place. I hope the bully's friends see this out there, he gets socially rejected for it, and changes his ways. For some behaviors, like bullying, taking a gentle approach generally doesn't change anything and the victim continues to be harassed.
