      The quote isnt bullying at all. Its your own post using words like idiot ect. Thats abusing which again has nothing to do with the post below it. A mundane version of that post wouldnt be as controversial and most likely be roundly ignored.

      Might as well just remove the ability of people to post. That will fix it

        You have to think of it from a micro blogging perspective. Imagine I have a ton of followers and have created a culture of them attacking anyone I attack. It makes more sense how it is bullying in that context.

        Edit: Also, to be clear, I’m not arguing against this feature, just explaining how it can be used for bullying.
