A power imbalance exists between the target and the bully.(Real or imagined by the target)
The bully enjoys carrying out the action.
The bully repeats the behavior, often (if given a chance) in a systematic way.
The target is hurt physically or psychologically and has a sense of being persecuted or oppressed.
