Bullying Old People

[Hawk Hart]

Why do people do this? Is it really "cool" to shit talk an old person and put videos of it on YouTube? Seriously, if I see anyone bullying an old person, I'm gonna bully them.

Do you think anyone bullies Big Bully Busick nowadays?


I wouldn't.

[Chronos]

It's easy to see why people do it. Some people love to show their superiority over others, no matter how defenseless or elderly. They think it's cool, which is disgusting and inhumane. I think a lot of these are the same people who mutilate the English language into some alien signal pattern in the comments sections.

If I saw anyone bully an old person, I'd likely outright try and beat the s*** out of them. Even if they can handle themselves. Even if I got my ass totally handed to me (which would likely happen). Respecting the elderly is one of my highest-valued core principles. (I'm sorry if that come out pissing-match-style, I very much didn't mean it like that; I'm a bit tired.)

As a guy who doesn't care how old you are, and believes no one automatically deserves respect for anything, that kind of shit does piss me off.

E-Thugs yeah they think they are tough but when they get to be old the tables are going to turn on them. Oh the harsh thing known as Irony I hope it hits them hard.

I hate when people are rude to the elderly. My younger cousins used to be dicks to my grandma all the time.

I argue it's an combination of juvenile humor (Think Crank Calls) and poor moral education.

[YeahYeahYeahYeahYeah]

Anyone messing with elderly people makes me really, really mad. Elderly people are seriously cool. Honestly, given a choice between hanging out with a group of random strangers my age and a group of random 70, 80, or 90 year olds, I'd go with the latter in a heart beat.

But, yeah. Elder bullying in any form= NOT cool.

I thought this title said "Buying" old people.

Unless "others" is Matt Hardy. I think not too many people would agree with you, and he's the proof.

I agree with you. I don't think you should automatically be respected because you're old (hey you might be the biggest ass in the world). But I also don't think you should automatically be disrespected either (not saying you said that).

I don't like bullying in general. Though some old people are also real assholes. And terrible drivers.

I mean how old are we talking here anyways? Cause if I was like 60's and some asses started messing around with me I'd f*** around with them right back. I'd have ton of options at my disposal depending on what type of personality they had and what would f*** with them the most. Things like:

1) Out right threaten them.
2) Act like I've gone crazy and it could end with their murder in my basement.
3) Start laughing WITH them.
4) Start laughing AT them.
5) Give them a really well worded response using an education level likely far beyond their own to befuddle them, but in all reality I'm just disguising shit talking them with nice words.
6) Come on to them and tell them I like it like that.

It tends to be pretty old, I'm talking 70s and 80s complete with walker and hearing aid.

The elderly are only weak because they are victims of old age, as we all will be someday. Since human youth is fleeting and fragile, to trust in it as a source of supremacy is foolish. Aside from that, it's barbaric. In barbarian cultures, the strong dominate the weak, like animals, and the elderly suffer, just as women, children and slaves. If we belive that all human life has the same worth, and all men posess an inherant dignity that should be respected, then respect for the old is a countermeasure to the human tendency towards power worship.

But in all fairness, I don't think they truely care about what fat dullards posting YouTube comments think about them.

[Milkman Norm]

As bullying is an ahole behavor in general I'm against it
