Not really no. Bullying is hostile, violent. Traumatizes people. It doesn't involve any rational thought like "ah yes, I am helping society by ironing out this individual's anti-social behavior". Bullying is more like " I hate you because you don't have a fucked up family like I do and you can afford a nice backpack, so i'll demean you, throw things at you, spit at you, etc". Bullying is never about taking out the trash, it's just chimping out over petty things.
So yeah no, bullying doesn't work. What does work, though, are needling comments like "you are fat" and "that's disgusting". It's one thing to harm someone because they are reprehensible, but words stick with people. Words cause change. That nigga will be taking those words to the grave that day some kid told them "you stink dayum take a shower, ya nasty fuck". The thing is, it's casually saying it which hurts them the most. Nowadays, such comments are called passive aggression or included in the now-large umbrella of hostility as society condones degeneracy.
