Well, hello there. Long time, no see, right? I'm sorry for the lack of posts on this blog in the past three months. It's not that I don't have any thoughts to write down (though well... sometimes I really don't), but more that amidst all this school and finals mess I'm currently in, I barely find any time to do what I like, e.g. posting on here.
Anyway, I just wanted to study for Maths but of course instead of doing so, I started procrastinating and then I started thinking about my past again, as like, always.
As you might know, I have been bullied in 2014 for something I did not actually do, but a friend of mine did and I wanted to protect her. Well, I looked back at that day when people finally found out that I was being bullied for no reason whatsoever as I did nothing wrong.
And what has really struck me, is that instead of telling the bullies "What you did was wrong and despicable", our entire grade simply turned on my friend instead of me. And to be honest, if you observe the treatment she still receives in our grade, that still has not change.
When it first happened I was so MAD because here I was, a person destroyed by relentless bullying and you can SEE how much it has impacted me and instead of owning up to their mistakes, their wrong behavior, they think the next step is to find a new victim and that's just wrong on so many levels.
But I guess that's just a part of being a part of the mob mentality. It is far easier to turn onto one single person, than on an entire group of people, right? Maybe through doing so, we can deny that we ever did anything wrong (that's how I imagine their thought process). And even the people who just quietly let it happen cannot escape, because: What if their old friends will turn on them, too?
Don't get me wrong, I'm not exactly a person who separates themselves from the "mainstream" on purpose. But this is just a common sense issue. If your mob mentality is physically and mentally HURTING people, then it's just logical to question its limits, you know what I mean?
I don't know, maybe this will change one day, maybe it won't, but I sure hope it does. Give everyone a chance to live a life of their own, please.
