First, "human nature" is a logical fallacy straight away: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naturalistic_fallacy

Second, in many existing societies outside of the US school bullying is extremely uncommon.

There are rules of human behavior just as there are rules of dog behavior. To state otherwise is ridiculous.

I never stated otherwise. The (well known) logical fallacy is in arbitrarily picking one behavior instead of another and labeling it "human nature" and claiming it's inevitable.
