Bullies, acting alone, can be faced down, but bullies in a group are called mobbers and feed off each other in a feeding frenzy of rage and violence.

Run towards the lone bully to deter them; run away from the mob in order to survive, and pick them off at your future leisure.

People who pay attention. Most learn the hard way because the hardship helps memory, but observant can learn lessons from other’s mistakes and observe effective behaviour. That comes at little or no cost to the one learning. The teacher need not even know they’e being observed and taking the pain
