it is funny you should ask this question .
last night "the bully" came on tv...based on book of a real life account.
i had seen it and my husband just expected some big guy physically beating up on other littler guys.
the bully in the movie was a master manipulator on many levels for many reasons, all of the above mentioned.
mostly because of his hatred of himself and his insecurity about who he was.
he had a manipulating father that he hated and was, it appeared, to be latent homosexual.
oddly enough those who followed him, served him, thought he was someone they needed in lives to feel important or special also.
so he visciously manipulating them all until they could no longer stand it and murdered him.
really creepy when you realize it really happened.
