But, you may have died by then. Tolerance of victimization, in my experience, is often viewed as cowardness, even if it is not. Turning the table around let's the other understand what you are going through. Good communication is important and can help the other, I would think. Being passive in the face of abuse can be wise in some circumstances. But fighting back bad behavior helps the assailant understand there may be something wrong with what he or she does. And the exercise you get in fighting back may be better for your health more than just taking the abuse and not risking any escalation. To me, one should use one's own judgement here.

Sort:  

Most problems can be resolved by tolerance. One should not create an impression harshly. Issues can be resolved without a fight. To be a peacemaker, one should have a good sense of judgement.

For many people and groups of people a fight is the way to resolve the issues. They are supremassists. How do you argue against that? For many people, you get peace once everyone that disagree with them has been neutralized or put away. I'm glad you concede that not all problems can be solved by tolerance. I congratulate you for tackling this difficult subject.
