The best way to fight meanness is to be completely passive and quiet. I avoided bullying my entire life through this.

Never look at anyone directly, never say anything to someone unless you're spoken to and even then say the absolute minimum required to make them get bored and go away, and if someone tries to start a fight with you then just let them yell at you. Words bounce off you harmlessly if you distance yourself and don't pay any attention to what they're saying.

The thing that bullies want most is a response, but if you just become like a dead fish, staring off blankly and emotionlessly as they yell at you then they just get bored and go because it's not entertaining to bully something that doesn't respond.
