>>We at the beginning thought he was above that but having Lisa sneering at you day in day out would be enough to grind down the stoutest of men.

When has lisa sneered? She's done nothing but comment. Hardly the same thing as laughing like an idiot in your face. She's no saint but Freddy found a new level of bullying.

C'mon Albie mate, you really believe that?
I was being conservative when I said that.
She does sneer and a lot worse

Halfwit may be losing his appeal, getting a little cocky of late and hanging with Bea isn't the wisest of choices but this huge turn around from his former admirers is quite insane.
Sure he lowered himself to Lisa's level but doesn't that say something more about Lisa?

It's funny really, if I'm any -ist, I'm class-ist.
I'm proud working class and here I find myself defending a silver spoon toff but I admired Halfwit's class in the face of overwhelming animosity.
Attacking David was not big and not clever (I'm not a fan of his) but Lisa got what she deserved. If you don't like Freddie it doesn't automatically make you like Lisa.
But if she doesn't go on friday than her numbers will swell (within the house) and with it the sniping and subtle bullying.
If you're pro-Lisa than I have to imagine you were cool with the early bullying.
I hope Freddy takes a look at himself (wish I could say the same about Lisa) and get back to his old self.
So let's get her out.
And show her the public doesn't approve of bullying in any form.
If she doesn't go than I dispair, where us the public let the bad run free.
My name is Ghostface77 and I'll be here all week.
Thank you and good night

(I wish I can write English frequently like you, guys)

I do not think Freddie should be called bully.

It is nothing compare from Lisa of earlier weeks. That was genuinely bully.
He is only enjoying himself now. Nobody in the house knew how terrible time he had weeks after weeks.

Sure, I do not feel comfortable watching him recently over David specially.

One thing good of Lisa did not go last nihgt (sorry for Hira fan), Freddie has to stop running towards the wrong direction and adjust himself little bit.

Lisa next I hope. Long overdue.

The fact is that a lot of people who write on this forum have a very confused understanding of what the word "bullying" means. It has become utterly apparent over the last week that this is the case.

The primary errors are to confuse "bullying" with ideas such as "mocking" or "acting in a hostile way". The three are, quite simply, not the same. I suppose this is an unfortunate by-product of the many stories over the last few years, which have muddied the waters.

Once people make such an accusation and invest some of their "forum credibility" in it then they will obviously defend their claim, even if the mistake is an elementary one (as I have pointed out above with regard to the actual meanings of the words) and so it goes on.

Some of the people who claim Freddie is "bullying" are simply mistaken; some really know that the claim has little basis and derives from a simple misapplication of the word but despise him anyway and want to use it as a stick to beat him with. This displays a lack of integrity but they will never admit it.

And that is pretty much the state of play with the accusation. Despite the fact it has little merit it will undoubtedly continue to to bubble away on this forum and no amount of correction will get rid of it.
