Bystanders
I just saw a korean movie called "Bystanders" and I was, to be honest, shocked.
I'm not that naive to believe, that terrible things do not happen. I think I'm quite sure how the world really works, with all it's cruelty and unfairness and contradicting happiness. Shit happens - that's how it is, but that movie kind of moved me in I way never thought it would. I didn't start to bawl to my hearts content, I wasn't even sad but I really took pity on that guy, whose face was never even shown once.
As a matter of fact, this movie is about mobbing and until the end, I just thought "oh, nice storyline, I like that" but when I saw the flashback of Maria (the mother) I was... I don't know... angry maybe, no, I was furious. I wondered why his mother didn't notice anything and how she could tell him to just go away - she didn't even care how long or where to. That stupid bitch. But what hurt more than the words of Maria was her remembering how she treated her son after she found out he was being mobbed (and dead).
And when they showed the video of the schoolmates mobbing him, I asked myself how something like that happens. Why, not even once, someone said "Stop it". As far as I know, there was no mobbing in my class and if I had noticed it surely wouldn't have stayed that way! I'm not a kind-hearted, nice soul. I'm more like a sarcastic, mean egoist. I don't care much about the affairs of other people, but when somebody was being tormented by his classmates I sure as hell would say something.
If it is evenly matched, I don't care - but that was like a butterfly trying to ambush an elephant (whoa, bad comparison Oo). I hope you get what I mean.
What I hate the most are gutless, cowardly followers and blind bystanders. Am I the only one who would give someone a kick in the ass if they tried to torment a weakling?
Great, no I'm even more angry than before. Alright. Calm down.

Fucking retards.

I know it was just a movie, but that doesn't make it less realistic, because mobbing does exist and yes, even to that degree! The hell, I could picture my brother doing something like that if he didn't knew that I was going to castrate him if I ever found out about it - because my brother really is bully-material³. But I think I did a good job in turning him into a loyal person with a sense of justice. At least I hope so. If not, he is going to be an eunuch soon.
Alright, just wanted to rant off.
