The simple goal of the Bullies book and this site is to help all of us to see the foundational causes of our world’s divisions, its miseries and poor decision-making, and then offer real hope – clear steps that can be taken by any and all of us, together, to create a healthy, prosperous, thriving culture of mutual care, a country and a world where no one is excluded, exploited, or left behind.
And so…
This site contains excerpts from the Bullies book and the many sources that substantiate its histories, insights, analysis, and strategies for our future. The excerpts are just teasers, to give a sense of the content, but you’ll likely need all of it, start to finish, to reach the full import and application. Basically, read the book. You’ll see.
That said, it is a pretty quick and engaging read, filled with real-life examples and true stories that illustrate its message and hope. If you cannot afford to purchase the book, it is available to you for free. Click GET-THE-BOOK.

The False Hope of Technology
False hope preserves darkness. In recent decades, technology has been widely promoted as the cure-all for human suffering—with promises to cure disease, end hunger, provide shelter, and entertain. And it does have potential. But technological advancement has also been...
Preparing to Act

“Apex Predator?” – Discarding a Myth
Some people argue that our violent human history is actually the outworking of evolution and natural selection, with the “apex predator” perched atop the less-successful predators and prey, each in its place in the ladder of power, the bullies above and their...
We still keep slaves.
We still keep slaves. This excerpt from the book is the chapter on Slaves in history and today. It is accurate and disturbing, but vitally important to know and understand—or nothing will change. It follows chapters on Bullies and Parasites, people who take because...

Let’s begin by carefully defining three terms, to give us consistent and common language when facing down the predators before us: Bullies take because they can. They steal openly with intimidation, physical harm and even murder in their predation, if needed. They...
from the Foreword
What follows is all about each of us seeing the mistaken, failed methods of human bullies and parasites—and the kinds of bad leadership and immoral values we’ve had imposed on us. They couldn’t and didn’t work. Many people were exploited to subsidize a few, and this...
BPS.127 – Criminalizing Criticism and the “Disappeareds”
True leaders do not fear criticism, but see it as an opportunity for improvement and correction especially when accurate and needed, but even if mistaken and unpleasant. They deal with it as simply one of the unavoidable elements of complex social interaction—at the...
