Bullying, are you okay???

Bullying is a behavior in which a person is intentionally hurt by words or actions, usually more than once, feels bad about it, and it is difficult to stop what happens to them. In bullying, there are actions such as threats, spreading issues, attacking someone physically or verbally, and this action is done intentionally. Along with the development of highly sophisticated technology, intimidation can not only be done directly, but also indirectly through social media called "Cyber Bullying" which has developed rapidly and must be avoided. One example of cyber bullying is haters who bully celebrities by cursing and insulting without thinking about the negative effects that will be caused. So in today's world conditions, intimidation must be stopped because a lot of problems arise.

Bullying is a despicable behavior because bullying can cause many problems. Actually bullying not only affects the victim, but also affects the perpetrator. Until now, there have been many cases of bullying in the world, even this bullying has made victims become depressed. This is evidenced by the graph "Kaiser Family Foundation & Children Now (2011)". From the graph, it can be seen that depression cases due to bully reach the highest percentage, which is close to 50% compared to the others. This shows that bullying is very dangerous because it makes the victim of depression who might be brought to adulthood and more feared, this victim who has been very depressed will commit suicide because he is no longer able to face this world.

Worldwide, people already understand that bullying has a negative effect. but in reality, this case still often occurs even worse than the previous one. This is influenced by technological sophistication so that bullying can be done without having to face to face, namely through social media. More and more cases of bullying are increasingly rampant, so that makes everyone worried because of bullying, can make the victim become a mental trigger disorder. This is evidenced by the case that occurred about 2 months ago in Los Angeles. The case experienced by Will Poulter 'Bandersnatch'. The case where Will gets bullied on social media so that he experiences a mental disorder that makes him leave the virtual world. This is certainly a serious problem because the effects that are caused greatly affect it and must be addressed immediately.

Revenge is a trait a person has when feeling oppressed or persecuted. everyone can take revenge. it turns out, a bully case can cause a very serious problem that can make the victim become vengeful by taking revenge not only to the perpetrator, but even to avenge him or her who is totally innocent. This happened by a bully victim in China. As a result of being bullied, in April 2018 the victim killed 9 school students and injured 10 others. This certainly makes the country excited because this video slaughter is viral on social media. The victim named Zhaou said that what he did was a form of revenge for the bullying that he experienced at the age of 13 to 14 at the school. and in the end, the revenge took place on April 27, 2018 around 4 pm.

In conclusion, bullying is something that must be avoided and abolished because the consequences are extraordinary, especially for the victim. In this case both the government, parents, and the surrounding environment must be able to work together in overcoming or minimizing this with the aim that there will be no more victims caused and life becomes safe and secure.
