Sounds like the definition of bullying is far too broad in this case if you read the instances called "bullying"

What would you consider a case of bullying, in your more narrow sense of the word? Does it have to include physical bullying to count?

There's not a day that goes by, Liberals aren't bullying people they think are Conservative, Right leaning, Republican, Tea Party, White, Fat, Uneducated, ect... ect... ect...
I find it Ironic that the Left keeps redefining innocuous words in the English language to weild as a weapon to prop their agenda.
But they were served in early August when half of the country showed up to purchase quite possible the worlds shittiest Chicken sandwich. To speak out against the over baring oppressive, Liberal agenda that expects everyone to have homoerotic fancies.
It seems half the country are bullies, and the other half are sick of being called bullies.

Wow, it only took three posts for it to become all about liberals. Angry much, shutup?
I work in the medical field, which is notoriously nasty when it comes to politics. The saying "Nurses eat their young" is very true. People jockeying for position - it sucks. It doesn't serve the patients and it's hard to keep up with.

The office staff of my entity are under a heavy thumbed bully fat bitch weird-o pos .... and they refuse to stand up for themselves ... and they get pissed at me when my only answer to them when they complain to me about their issues with their boss is, "do something about it then. Go have a meeting with the Board of Directors."

A real conservative values interpersonal work relationship management approach would be to charge up to the bully as soon as he or she puts the car in park and plunge a spinning chain saw through the windshield and letting it stop an inch from the bully's face while screaming, 'fuck with me, asshole! fuck with me! next time it goes through your fat fucking head, you scum-sucking piece of shit!'

Get used to it, I tried bullying back, interesting personal study.
I still took a stab at it when I was younger, punched my school bus bully in the face (after we got off the bus), he walked away crying like a little baby. Often you'll find bullying stems from their own personal insecurities - to undermine those smarter than them. A few other countries have laws in place to alleviate the destructive nature of bullying. Schools: even the teachers are bullies. Schools have laws/rules for bullying for about one reason only. They started getting sued en-mass. As parents documented the behaviors, filmed it, recorded it, watched it continue un-abated. Parents bullied other people's children, children killing themselves because of it. Sick society.
Strength in numbers.
Pecking order.
Build self esteem and learn about it goes a long way.
Kids: Take a martial arts class.

Social Scientists finally did a real study on bullies, and found they have great self-esteem; they simply enjoy the power and dominance. If you land a good punch or two on them, even if you lose the fight overall, they leave you alone because they won't risk looking the least bit vulnerable.

Not entirely. Vulnerability, or shame? If one thinks so highly of himself/herself that they need to put others down, you are clearly entering the dimension of low self esteem. Partially, with bullies, your looking at an ego gone awry, they are a star in their own universe, often lacking empathy. When you have a need to project an ideal image of yourself in others eyes ..
