Actually when I thought about it a really good example is the thread about communities and the best ones to live in for Calgary. One guy was saying that having a lake is normally or always better than one without a lake, and the guy was just being tarred and feathered for a perfectly reasonable stance to take.
That's a perfect example of where it wasn't bullying.

Sliver's position that having a lake is subjectively better was ridiculous and having that pointed out to him is not bullying at all. It wasn't even close to a reasonable stance to take.

Again I have been part of some of the biggest times of many people "ganging up" against my views and not once has it come close to bullying.
