He won't be banned. They need ammo, which is the ultimate superior act, because then they can play victim.
I won't forget seeing dcon's profile though, which someone shared to 'highlight' who he was, which then got that person banned.
While wearing a horse mask he was putting the middle finger to the camera. How Christian does that picture choice sound? It just confirmed what I already knew, and why this thread which in essence he runs and lives on, is the way it is.
Like attracts like, so we have people like eternally-gratefull, preacher4truth, TruthTalk here. Those are just a few names.
It seems like they always need a victim to bully to some degree, and this is subconscious. Because I have empathy, I think maybe at some point in their life, maybe they were bullied, or were a victim. I know some things about some of them and it makes sense, their struggles. What happens to a person like this, is in denial of it and 'wanting to appear strong', what they feel negative about in their personal lives, comes through in how they speak.
In their need to feel that they are doing God's work, or to feel that God is present in their struggles, they need to scapegoat someone who 'stands up for their own beliefs' and belittle them, and point out that they are acting against God, or correct them and correct them. One of the common tactics of bullies, is to accuse a person, of everything THEY are doing.
Jesus stood up for his beliefs, in the face of destruction. And no I'm not making a comparison that people here are like Jesus. What I'm saying is that where someone stands up for a belief which is greatly different to those around them, the people who milk it are not so unlike the Pharisees.
But at the same time, the spirit of Jesus is in everyone, whether they realise it or not. When a bully comes to realise it, he chooses to love rather than be right. And will question whether he was always right when he believed he was right.
Often being right, is not always the right thing to do. Often being right, is wrong, because being right, often requires distortion or belittlement of another, otherwise known as defilement.
On the other side, someone may feel the need to defend themselves, but all it does it add fuel to the fire. Better to ignore such people, unless they have a change of heart, and realise that in their intention of intellectual superiority they are not being loving.
In real life, when someone experiences psychological bullying, if possible they remove themselves from that persons presence. But what does the bully do? They wait for the next victim to come along.
In this case you have a brood of bullies who support each other. Why that is not observed, or is allowed, I don't know. In the real world, bullies are extremely manipulative, as to your impression of them. So when a bully is highlighted, then they might make out they are a victim of their victim. As soon as they have 'proof' they are a victim of a person, they will pounce on it, like a juicy piece of meat. One wonders if they try to push someone to this point of 'proof'. This often happens in a situation of relationship bullying, and a person can become trapped because they fear what the bully will say or do if they speak out.
Bullying is the need to have control, when the person feels a loss of power or loss of control in themselves, or their life.
