I agree with the person who actually said it, though, that it does sound like the kind of thing Terry meant all over the place. So yes, let’s not misattribute the direct quote—but IMHO the spirit of that message lives in his work. 1/2

I wouldn’t presume to give much weight to my opinion of whether he would have agreed with this formulation and trying a web search for Terry Pratchett satire bullying is only going to bring us back to this quote. Can we get an opinion from someone who might have a better idea of what he thought? ? 2/2

it was an anonymous quote before it qas attributed to Terry. I never personally heard him say anything like this.
