Yeah, me too. A grown man who loves toys for little girls? Doesn’t that deserve a little bullying? At some point, tolerance becomes dangerous.
There are thousands of these guys out there.It’s a freak show.
No. No, it doesn't. No.
Human compassion is being lost, and the world is a far worse place for it.
There are many examples of the wussification of the male in modern society, but I really don’t think a mentally ill person, with speech and other issues being into children’s cartoons and toys is an example of it.
In fact, a requirement of manhood is to leave the boyhood behaviors of mocking those who are different from you and picking on those who are weaker than you behind, and showing those still in that phase that they need to grow up.
The guy needed some mental help that’s for sure.
I can understand if he was buying Pony toys and reselling them online for a profit, but this dude seemed to really be some sort of fan of this stuff and openly proclaimed it in the one format that begs for public ridicule.
I simply cant blame the peanut gallery for reacting to the absurdity of this guy’s public persona. He didnt know enough to not do it in the first place, or to learn to quit making a public spectacle of yourself when it goes sour. His obvious mental problems finally broke him in the end. It’s very unfortunate. I wonder if he had any real friends or family around to have caught this stuff before it was too late?
As someone who was mercilessly bullied all through my school years, no, I don't believe any bullying is "deserved" in any way shape or form. However, I also don't subscribe to the current anti-bullying campaign nonsense as the "cure all".
I was into just about anything and everything a boy growing up in the 60s-70s should have been. Had nothing to do with girl toys/cartoons being a sissy or whatever...the bullies needed a target and I became "it".
Regardless of whether or not you agree, those doing the bullying have no concept/idea of just how much their actions/words affect the recipient.
To this day, if I were to see my tormentors, I'd probably come close to killing them...as much as I've tried to let these things go, it's still for naught.
This young man obviously had some issues to begin with in gravitating towards ponies.
But at the same time, folks could say that I have issues because I mountain bike, shoot guns, play airsoft, build models, play computer games, etc.
Did it teach me something about human nature? Sure. I learned that there are people with absolutely no compassion, there are cheerleaders, there are tacit supporters, enablers, etc. to this kind of behavior because they lack the courage to shut this kind of thing down.
They are the "pussies" in our society, not the victims of bullying.
Doesn’t that deserve a little bullying?
A Good Dad would have taken care of it, before things got out of hand. "No, Son, you're not playing with My Pretty Pony Dolls. Because I said so." And that would have been that. A little fatherly work (bullying? liberals would say so, because the kid isn't being allowed to do whatever he wants, when he wants....) and the problem is solved - or never would exist to begin with.
Darwin steps in, where traditional family fails.
The kid was developmentally delayed. What’s your excuse, asshole?
Anyone who decides it’s worth the time and effort to make a possibly mentally feeble person, or even a “pussy”, feel miserable is a douchebag.
Right. A "grown man" with learning disabilities "deserved it."
Comments like yours make me sick.
