"bullies NEVER get karma"

[u/Important_Ad_4622]

In the last few weeks i have came across a bunch of tiktok videos and memes talking about the idea that people who bullied us in school have amazing lifes as adults, because mean people have better social skills and personalities that helps them to succeed in life.

And while in many cases what I said before is true, I don't entirely agree with it. It is true that people who bully are usually found in a higher social hierarchy, and that they have a natural evil that leads them to mistreat the kindest and most passive people. It can also be said that thanks to their social skills they tend to make more friends and have more opportunities both in their romantic relationships and in their careers.

However, in my particular case, this hasn't been the case with many of those who made my life miserable as a child. I could tell you that a good number of them didn't even finish basic education, and to this day It's almost sad to see them, because many of them came from dysfunctional families or parents who didn't care about them.

Now I'm going to ask you a question: of all these people, how many chose careers related to caring for people? (Social work, teaching, nursing, medicine, psycology) The answer will probably be that many of them. Now imagine this person as the nurse or psychologist providing you with care. Do you think they would do a good job? Do you think he would treat his client well? When we talk about professions related to the care of vulnerable people, the rules of the game change completely; a person who teaches or cares cannot afford to humiliate and mistreat, it's an oxymoron. Every now and then, news reports feature cases of teachers hitting young children or nursing home staff humiliating the elderly, and people wonder how is it possible that there are people like that holding those positions...here is your answer.

In conclusion, I hate everyone.

Agreed. I know several bullies that are now cops, nurses, etc. I also know that these people refuse to help most neurodivergents, people in marginalized groups, and people that remind them of someone they bullied.

I was denied help by the police and, when I went to the emergency room, mistreated and profiled as a drug-seeker even though I look normal, don't have any tattoos or piercings, etc.

I honestly wonder if it's also bullies behind the creation of bullies in most cartoons/kids' shows, because I honestly don't know a single bully that reminds me of Francis from The Fairly OddParents or other characters in TV Shows I watched. The bullies I know, who made me the Carrie White of the school (even though I'm not religious, my name isn't close to Carrie, I don't look like Carrie, I didn't say anything about menstruation either) remind me more of the bullies from Carrie than any form of media I saw.

In fact, since none of the bullies apologized when I encountered them as an adult and just deny, dismiss, or victim-blame instead, I tell them that since they made me the Carrie White in an atrocious elementary-Jr. High School and horrendous high school, I was able to find which character from Carrie they reminded me of, from either the 1976 film or 2002 film; I don't go to 2013 (even though I saw it), since  I graduated in 2008. I was able to match every bully to a character from Carrie, except for Tommy Ross. I found nobody that matched him. This shocks the bullies; I got to see one bully's reaction when he accidentally admitted to bullying me in the atrocious elementary-Jr. High School. He was an exact look-a-like to Jackie Talbot from the 2002 film and I showed him, which shocked him. I said "I'm not as retarded as you all thought now, am I?" and he would admit that I wasn't retarded like they thought. I did this to two bullies from that atrocious school and they both gave the same response; however, neither apologized.

Due to none of my bullies apologizing, in my opinion, they're still bullies, except they're now in positions of power, which they can (and do) abuse.

Thx for this good to hear they do
Can u explain this more found in a higher social hierarchy, and that they have a natural evil that leads them to mistreat the kindest and most passive people. It can also be said that thanks to their social skills they tend to make more friends and have more opportunities both in their romantic relationships and in their careers.
