Initially, that is the more successful response to bullying. Ultimately we have to actually somehow stand up to the bully to get them to fully back down.

I think we also have to find a strategy to the larger question of how to deprogram those who fall for these techniques without eliminating freedom of speech. I'm at a loss as to how to discredit things like faux news and psyops on the American public by our own intelligence agencies. Certainly we need to get rid of the concentration in media sources and concentrations of income and wealth.
