in my schooling (eastern Germany 90s/00s) I haven't witnessed any bullying. I only. know it from EVERY high school movie/ TV show I have seen. how much is the media portraying U.S. reality and how much is media influencing lived culture?
Spanish guy here. Raised 80/90s. Middle/High income background of a middle size city. Witnessed plenty of bullying back then. Didn't have that name at the time. Many cases could have ended very badly with a bit of bad luck... but didn't.
