Infrahumanisation

Infrahumanisation is when someone treats someone else as less than human. It usually happens when people group other people together and treat them as less than people. For example, if someone says they don't like someone because they look, act, or talk differently, this can be an example of infrahumanisation. Another example would be if someone believes that someone else's opinions don't matter because they are from a different culture or have a different background.
