I might go so far as to say most bullying could start from disgust but my personal observations tell me that it sometimes at least stems from pure sadistic pleasure.
you’re right.
the Italian kids in the next neighborhood didn’t wait for bullying, They just punched you.
I took up boxing, got into a fight with some brick with a head and did a pretty good job.
That was that.
BTW, I’m Italian, they didn’t discriminate :)
Have you ever read or watched “Clockwork Orange”? Disgust and sadistic pleasure.
I agree with you.
