I guess almost all of us are struggling about it. Either you’re an unconscious Bully, having no idea you’re hurting someone’s feelings, or you’re the one who’s being bullied helplessly trying just to Laugh or at least don’t mind. I am a bully. I make fun of people about different things or how they look like or how they do things or how they speak, etc. I bully friends. Close friends. I bully those people who are really fun to laugh about.
But I guess I’m done with it. One day I woke up and wondered what's fun in laughing at people without even thinking of how they might feel? I get bullied sometimes - about my tiny little boobs, my uneven teeth, or I don’t know. Whatever. Sometimes, I just laugh at them because I know they just joking. Sometimes, I throw harsh words to them, too. But sometimes my patience isn’t just enough. What’s good in making fun of each other?
Maybe some of you would say, just take it as a joke and forget about it later. But it is a bad joke. I mean, you’re telling the truth, what’s the “joke” there? You’re telling the truth, and you’re just making fun of it.
So what if I am flat chested? So what If she’s fat? So what if she’s not smart? So what if she’s a whore? So what if my English sucks? So what if he looks like a beast? Would your laugh help me overcome it? Would your words inspire me to change? Instead of making each other comfortable, instead of helping each other grow and change, instead of supporting each other, we laugh and make fun of them. And I think it’s bullsh*t.
I’m not being KJ or anything, especially when you’re both into making fun of each other, then why not. But laughing at people who’s quietly living her/his life away from bad vibes, I guess I’m out.
I don’t even get what is the “value” of saying those this about people. Because it’s fun? Does it make you happy? Well, good for you. Have you ever thought about those other people? I think yes they are laughing, but deep inside, they’re losing their confidence, self-esteem, and courage because you’re making them believe that they are carrying that label forever.
Please do remember that not everyone can tolerate your “jokes”. Some people need support and not jokes.
