I thought

"Tax hike spectacle guy"

Does it against the current PM not fall into the category of "bullying"?

If "bullying" is a balancing act against power, then, of course, "tax hike spectacle guy" is not "bullying.

I asked chatgpt and was told the following.

Bullying is "repeated harassment or hostile behavior perpetrated by an individual or group of individuals against another individual. This behavior intends to inflict psychological, physical, or social harm and is often characterized by an imbalance of power."

Okay, if it is "characterized by an imbalance of power," then "Tax hike spectacle guy" would not qualify as "bullying.

After all, the Prime Minister is the head of the executive branch and is effectively considered the highest authority in Japan.

Suddenly, the topic turns to my hobby of reading; I sometimes think that

In the "My Youth Love Comedy is Wrong as I Expected," the main character, Hachiman Hikigaya's daily behavior towards his friend (and the main character denies it), Yoshiteru Zaimokuza, is not "bullying"?

We cannot perceive this as "bullying" because Yoshiteru Zaimokuza is not "portrayed as a character being bullied" in the content.

However, suppose this is judged solely based on objective circumstances, ignoring the storyline and plot. In that case, it should be 100% certifiable that Hachiman Hikigaya is the "bullying perpetrator," and Yoshiteru Zaimokuza is the "bullying victim".

Of course, if you worry about such things, you will not enjoy any content.

That said, I believe there is a "scary pitfall" here.

In other words, by burying themselves in stories and daily life, they carry out "bullying" without recognizing themselves as "bullies" and drive the victims of "bullying" into a corner.

This is the reality of bullying.

Did you ever think that Yoshiteru Zaimokuza is only "teased" and not "bullied"?

This is a standard line of the "bullying" guys.

I am a senior citizen old enough (and twisted sufficiently) to have noticed this.

I would like to ask you, teenagers, or any of your young readers or viewers,

I wonder how many people have come up with the idea of "My Youth Love Comedy is Wrong as I Expected," the main character, Hachiman Hikigaya's daily behavior towards his friend (and the main character denies it), Yoshiteru Zaimokuza, is not "bullying" ?"

If you have never been able to come up with this, you are fully capable of being a "bullying perpetrator."

On the contrary, you may be a party to an ongoing "bullying perpetrator.
