It is not a strange concept to assume that if you get fun out of calling someone names, encouraging others to follow this example, speculating publicly on their mental health and every other aspect of matters that are none of your business - that the victim of all this must also be enjoying it as much as you are.

Were I to respond in kind - it could be possible to make this assumption of a kind of participatory sport - but as I do not - it remains a puzzling concept.

Perhaps all bullies, rapists, child abusers etc make similar assumptions about their victims enjoyment of the treatment they receive?
