A simple statement.
Labeling another human being a bully denigrates them to the status of a beast : a mindless, heartless, brutal animal capable of nothing but cruelty and savagery.
Is that what they are really though?
Of course not.
They are kids who don't have a path in life to follow and the support and love of their society.
They are high-energy kids with tons of vim and vigour, a powerful desire to be challenged and stimulated physically, they want their limits to be tested.
I do not believe they are just : bad.
What an idiotically simplistic label completely ignoring the fact that all human behavior is a product of past experiences.
When kids bully, they are making a statement :
We're in pain.
We subject others to pain so that they can know how we feel like.
We do not know how to express our pain other than through violence,
but,
We hope that somebody strong will rise up and save us from ourselves,
and,
Protect us from our bullies, the way we were never protected.

From Bully to Hero
Kuwabara seemed like just a mindless bully.
But, as the Anime points out, he is far more than that.
What did he need?
A purpose.
A reason to prove himself.
A need to do something extraordinary.
Give that need to anyone, and they will show you their worth.
Rivals to Friends
Bullies are people who want others to show them their strength.
They are people who seek out strength in others.
Yusuke and Kuwabara were rivals, but, they prove to each other their mutual strength and thus form the basis for a friendship.
In a society dedicated to making people weak and subservient, vigorous people like Yusuke and Kuwabara, need each other to stimulate their desire to grow strong.
To be honest, it would be good if everyone got into fights to test their strength out.
People need to feel they are strong.
Oh, of course, everyone should wear protective gear.
It's cool to fight, not to scratch your face though.
Still want to look good on dates. ; )
