I just read a long article about school bullying that had a weird tone. Finally I spotted the oddity: nowhere in the article did the author or any of the experts quoted acknowledge that bullying is often violent -- that bullies frequently hit their victims, and enforce silence with threats of worse violence. The whole discussion was weirdly bloodless and bruiseless.
Either bullying has changed A LOT in half a century, or all these anti-bullying experts are whistling past a schoolyard.
