Can you point out when you have been bullied many times on JC please Linda, I am genuinely curious because you have only typed on this site for a few months or less. I thought you said you worked in high profile academic jobs are highly qualified and have academic qualifications related to those jobs. How on earth is it possible for you to be bullied on a site like JC and then compare it to the bullying some children endure online?
Listen and believe …
Or does the Duluth model only apply when it is convenient?
(I wanted to bring up femminist critical theory in this thread too)
Weird yes. You don’t type like someone with a Ph.D In fact not even degree level.
I would like to hear you explain to me why anti-positivism should be considered scientific.
Lol. I had no idea you are such an expert on sociology Drac, I am impressed. Being scientific yourself though, because according to you sociology isn’t science and reiterating that science only counts, surely you must have some ideas yourself relating to this issue?
The persion with a PhD knows something about research methodology, weird.
Do you think sexism exists in society or not and if you don’t think sexism exists, why not?
When did I say anything even remotely similar to that?
Yes of course I care. I wouldnt be taking part in this discussion otherwise would I? And I have three children myself. Two of them were picked on at school, badly enough for me to involve the police. Didnt happen again.
It’s hard to tell the difference between people who are virtue signaling, and people who genuinely care about an issue when I don’t know anything about them.

I do understand. You are looking at it with adult eyes in the context of a site like JC. Children network with people they know, they belong to the same network groups. They socialize in the same network groups. Blocking one individual, or five, will not halt online bullying. In fact it will probably make it worse as has been explained, the blurred lines between online and offline.
It is the role of a parent to advise them on what they should do. As they have ‘adult eyes’ as you descibe it.
And yes, blocking the people involved will halt it, words cannot hurt you if you can’t see them.
(Not that they should hurt you when you can see them)
Sociology is not a science, it should not be treated like one.
(Positivist branches of sociology can broadly considered to be scientific, but critical ‘theory’, of any variety does not fall into this category)
Drac….it maybe online bullying….however…as is usually the case, the scummy bully attends the same school/college as the person they are bullying, so blocking someone isnt going to work is it? Why is that so hard for you to understand?
It stop the online aspect of the bullying, in order to stop any physical part then other measures must be taken. As I have repeatedly said during this thread.
Drac a kid was bullied to death…of course people will react emotionally…how do,you expect them to react?
Rationally, if you want to prevent it happening to other kids.
Maybe you don’t care about that, I don’t know. But I have young children, and it’s in my interest in preventing them from commiting suicide.

Actually, as keeps getting repeated, it isn’t as simple as a simple block. If it was online bullying would have ended years ago. You paint the world as if it black and white, if only life was so uncomplicated.
Why is it so hard for you to understand when I make statements like that I am only talking about online bullying?
I knew it would be a bad idea to post on this thread because people would react emotionally and blind them to what I am actually trying to say.
