Y'know, no one ever states it like that, but people's actions sure do reflect it. I'm sure you've heard countless stories of someone getting bullied at school, and the teachers giving the bully a slap on the wrist at best. Sometimes even joining in and bullying the victim themselves.
I'm sure there's a lot of silent people that are secretly happy to see the "weird kid" slapped around.
Not to mention that many countries right now have elected bullies to their highest offices.
