“To fight bullying, don’t be an easy target” doesn’t that shift the burden to the next weakest person?

You don't need to be faster than the bear, just faster then the next person...

Ideally the equilibrium would be that enough people in the group can't be bullied that it extinguishes the bullying behavior, or bullies get ganged up on.

It's unfortunate, but to the person being bullied, their immediate concern is not the next weakest person. Their immediate concern is avoiding or fending off the bully.
