This is a fascinating read about bullies and bullying, calling into question the toxic culture around manliness and cruelty. The desire for the “law of the jungle”, where the man most appropriate to lead is determined by his ability to crush those who contest his right to rule, this predates American society.
While America is one of the few modern nations that still glorifies it, the form and shape is considerably weaker to past societies and the power of the bully diminishes daily. Champions of industry are now the bookish sort, something that would be unthinkable a half-century ago. I am hopeful that the trend will continue as society evolves.
