A common thing in society that I personally find hard to accept is the typical ‘runt of the litter’ scenario. No matter where you look, there is always some person who is slightly isolated from the rest, whether that be in school, work, or the home environment. There is always one child in school who gets bullied by absolutely everyone regardless of the social huerarchy of the rest of the school, and once they are identified as the easiest target and selected they often don’t escape this social position and it can leave them with emotional or psychological issues. There is always someone in the work place who the superior and the rest of the team automatically dislike as if it is a collective instinct, and these people usually get given the worst possible jobs with no possibility for advancement. Collegues also tend to make this person’s job as hard as possible. As the ‘runt’ they get all the hard deals and yet even HR tends to ignore it because it seems to be a socially accepted fact that there will always be a ‘runt’. There is always someone at home that is identified as a ‘runt’ too. There’s the parents that is respected and loved far less than the other, or the sibling who is ignored and taken less seriously, or the family member who is always blamed for the things that go wrong. Everyone else gets along while the identified ‘runt’ becomes isolated among their own family. I hate the ideology that seem to be in society that it’s just socially acceptable to allow people to load all their issues onto this one identified ‘runt’ like some sort of human sacrifice for the greater good. I hate how many people are okay with this, and I hate how people who don’t join in with tormenting the ‘runt’ are the ones considered abnormal.

Great contribution, The part about people considering those who don’t join in the torment as “abnormal” is particularly insightful and frustrating. It really shines a light on how group dynamics can turn toxic when this kind of behavior becomes socially accepted.
