Why is it immediately recognized as the easiest to bully? Most people labeled as【Easy to Bully】are not identified at a glance, but rather tested to reveal it.
Victims often have social trauma-induced sensitivity and anxiety, which makes them easily express genuine words and actions under stress during assessments, allowing perpetrators to confirm they can continue to bully without backlash. Perpetrators may not necessarily understand psychology but learn testing paradigms through naive observation from their original environment. Common tests and defenses: 1. Obedience Test: Command to fetch water or buy cigarettes without reason; if not refused, it gradually escalates. Defense: Ignore, say you're busy, or say "I'll do it this time, you do it next time." 2. Triangulation: Fictitious negative opinions about others to measure emotional reactions; anxiety and nervousness indicate "displeasure." Defense: "He has a misunderstanding about me? I'll talk to him another day." Also, "What does he think of me, and what does that have to do with me?" 3. Delayed Response Test: Intentionally delay replying to urgent matters to see if they imagine offending themselves and apologize. For work, prompt without delay; for personal matters, use other channels. If asked, say "I saw you're busy, handle it yourself." 4. Vague Command Test: Deliberately speak unclearly to see if they take on excessive responsibility voluntarily. Defense: "I'm not sure, I'll only do the clear parts," keep asking to bother them, do less if not said, or ask around to appear incompetent. 5. Debt Creation Test: Design scenarios where they are forced to accept favors, observing if they give up principles due to guilt. Defense: Refuse forced favors, interrupt, or after receiving, immediately reciprocate with a milk tea, and tell them it's unnecessary in the future. 6. Emotional Temperature Test: Alternating between enthusiasm and indifference to observe if behavior adjusts to gain approval. Defense: Don't overthink why they are cold; communicate normally at a regular pace, treat equally. 7. Memory Tampering Test: Fictitious details of shared experiences to see if they doubt themselves. Defense: Deny it didn't happen, keep records and evidence of all work communications.
