Re: Your thoughts on bullying
I'm not manipulating your words. I'm taking you at what you're saying, and what you're saying is at least partially wrong (not entirely, but partially). You exagerate and equivocate, change the subject as you see fit and them attempt to take evidence for one claim and say it proves another.
I show no disdain for the articles you've posted, nor have I even mentioned them, because by and large, they're not relevant to what you're claiming. They've proven nothing. You're making claims well beyond what your evidence actually supports, and declare yourself victorious because evidence supports something moderately similar to your claim.
I'm well aware of what you're saying. They mess with you at school, you handle it at schooll. If they in turn mess with you out of school, you handle it out of school. A detention may not deter a bully, but an assault charge and the possibility of a criminal sentence might. Again what you are saying is not evidence to support your claim or your way, you're simply justifying how you handled your own situation... or rather how you chose not to out of fear. That doesn't mean the situation was beyond handling, that means you were affraid or didn't care enough to handle it. That's on you, not the bullies.
I hate to break it to you mate, but I've taken a fair few psychology courses myself. Abnormal psychology among them, with extensive emphasis on personality disorders. I know what I'm talking about. You equivocate between stress, normal human reactions to events, and personality disorders as though they were all the same thing, they aren't, and you can't treat them as though they were. My take on personality disorders is based on medicine and science wheras yours are rooted in your psychological need to place the blame of your problems on something else and your refusal to accept anything other than what you've decided is truth. In fact, psycholgists have NEVER pinpointed the exact cause of personality disorders as you're claiming your sources do, when in fact all they do is show common problems of bullied individuals, which are not indicative of any personality disorder. In fact, in stark contrast to your claim, studies have shown personality disorders to be correlated strongly to genetics and biological factors. Yeah, you need experiences to set them off in most (not all) cases, but the underlying conditions have to be present for anything to occur.
For Our Lord Sheogorath, without Whom all Thought would be linear and all Feeling would be fleeting. Blessed are the Madmen, for they hold the keys to secret knowledge. Blessed are the Phobic, always wary of that which would do them harm. Blessed are the Obsessed, for their courses are clear. Blessed are the Addicts, may they quench the thirst that never ebbs. Blessed are the Murderous, for they have found beauty in the grotesque. Blessed are the Firelovers, for their hearts are always warm. Blessed are the Artists, for in their hands the impossible is made real. Blessed are the Musicians, for in their ears they hear the music of the soul. Blessed are the Sleepless, as they bask in wakeful dreaming. Blessed are the Paranoid, ever-watchful for our enemies. Blessed are the Visionaries, for their eyes see what might be. Blessed are the Painlovers, for in their suffering, we grow stronger. Blessed is the Madgod, who tricks us when we are foolish, punishes us when we are wrong, tortures us when we are unmindful, and loves us in our imperfection.
