Most bullies I've ever experienced just made fun of my looks and clothing. They never really made any statements regarding anything I couldn't or can't do.

Did you really win? That looks like it was done on receipt paper from the Dollar Store.

My post is not meant to assert something about me. But rather to help those who may feel they aren't "good enough".

Just me not reading the room. Again. Sorry about that!

Very fair criticism of the original idea, actually. My msg was just for those who felt it had validity 😁

Damn, going out of your own way to help others? Respect.

I understand the thought process, and if you can’t stop thinking about your oppressors then sure, do better to spite them, but maturity would be to find value and confidence where you are. To take your focus off those who oppress you, and be content without their so called ‘success’. For some, success is just having peace and freedom, for others, it’s chaos.

You bet.
As I said in another comment, this is more to supplement or discuss the other, much higher voted post here for those people who see merit in it, without being outright confrontational or "critical" to it or them. I also tend to think you are right though, in terms of that I personally don't find the underlying idea helpful either. I think revenge is kinda petty generally. But if you (i.e. others) don't, then at least make sure you know not everyone gets the same ability to have this kind of "best revenge" and you shouldn't implicitly hold that against them, either.

Orrrrrrrrrr, Just fucking ignore the bullies.
Revenge is not a good pursuit to advise someone to pursue.
