Is David Hogg just a bully now? Uses followers to go on personal vendetta.

Because in nature, disrespecting those in power always ends badly to those without it and that's has been consistent throughout human history too. The only way to change your position in the equation is to get power yourself.  That has always been one of the primary rewards of working your way up in to a position of power. Now the masses have taken that away and distributed power to all those that never worked for it, nor had the ambition to strive for it. I believe those that worked their way up in to positions of power should be able to exert that power within a reasonable maximum and they certainly shouldn't be torn down by a mob of people without any authority. If you can't win head to head then don't fight - when you need to be a sneaky backstabber then you're in the wrong. The biggest, strongest, cunning and the most ruthless wins in nature.

Yeah, but you can gain power without going head-to-head, in fact it's generally preferable, so you're simultaneously saying to get power yet denouncing ways of gaining power.

You can try to gain power in whatever way possible and you dont do that by going up against someone in power directly UNTIL you yourself are already in power - backstabbing is wrong, but in the question for power it's all good. Hoggs is short cutting the process by going directly against someone in power he isnt equal to. He hans't climbed the ladder to do what he's doing. It's like a drunk woman that slaps a 6'1, 190lb man on the street and then gets knocked out. She got what she deserved, because she ignored the consequences of picking a fight with someone of a different level of power. Hoggs is doing this on a societal level and our culture and society is now encouraging it by taking away her ability to exert her power the way she could have in decades past to ruin him behind the scenes.
