Marc is not a bully tho, that's kind of my point. Nothing he has done (or Helen, really) compares to what this vile waste of oxygen did all season long

Can a person who uses the N word to talk about black people use the defence that they don't go as far as Hitler did, so therefore they're not really a racist.

This. And he acts this way towards her because she stands up for herself against him and bullies don't like it when someone stands up to them:

Good to see a few people remember this and don't just think Helen has turned him into a bastard

Are you saying that the video is the minimum a person should do to be called a bully is what the girl did in the video? Because I think bullying is far more fluid than that. Bullying, to me, can be much more discreet or insignificant than the video.

I can understand you not thinking that Marc is a bully if the video is a cut-off point for you but, personally, I have seen Marc cross my imaginary line of what bullying means to me several times.

I've noticed people throw the bully word around a lot too, I've also noticed people complaining about the overuse of the word.. I think the word has more of a personal meaning though, I guess it's up to each person to decide what level of anti-social behaviour is 'bullying'.

^I wanted to say something similar but I wouldn't have been able to express it as well as this so I'll just quote your post instead.
