In eighth grade, first grade of junior high school in Canada, I lost it in the middle of a science class and pulled a stool out from under this guy that was fucking with me, and then beat him with it. He went to hospital, I was almost expelled and spent the day in jail. Everybody in class hated the guy and they all said he started it, so I got off - barely. The violence was totally out of character for me. No one fucked with me for the rest of junior high.
You must treat people the way they want to be treated.
IOW, to treat others they way YOU want to be treated, you need to treat them the way THEY want to be treated.
It's like this. Some people speak Chinese. Some people speak Russian.
Some people speak bully. Marxist. It's all about oppression and force.
For those people, you have to use force. That's all they understand.
Afterwards, you can help elevate their consciousness, but if you don't stomp the shit out of them first, they will think you are weak and they will never listen to you.

This is the TRUE meaning of the Golden Rule.
You must treat people the way they want to be treated.

This is why the Chinese and Middle East respect Trump. They may not like him, but they respect him.
"Do unto others as you would have them do unto you."
The way I like to think of it is if I'm being an asshole, I want someone to kick my ass so I stop being an asshole.
