    Dehumanization occurs when an individual or group is perceived as having no intrinsic value and no inherent worth. This can be done through verbal attacks, exclusion, or inaction.

    When someone is dehumanized, their basic human rights are violated. This can lead to feelings of isolation and depression, which can in turn cause more dangerous behaviors.
