Humiliating

Using humiliation

Description

Humiliating as a strategy involves deliberately undermining an individual’s or group’s dignity or self-worth to assert control, discourage undesirable behavior, or enforce conformity. This process often employs ridicule, public shaming, or exposure of failures to elicit compliance or deter future transgressions. While intended to correct or discipline, it can cause lasting psychological harm and social alienation. Remedies include fostering respectful communication, restorative practices, and promoting environments that address issues without degrading personal integrity.
