If it&#x27;s used to intimidate and isolate, then yes.<p>Remember school bullies? Same thing yet more subtle and stealthy.<p>Often the model of harassment is indirect. For instance you have a group of people who are happy and working together. A predator arrives and sees opportunity. He sees another guy is protecting and coaching the group. So he slowly undermines and destroys this guy&#x27;s credibility, provoking him to anger and finally making him leave. Then, the group is exposed and easy to play with.<p>You almost never see it. Even when it happens to you, you can almost not see it. It is so slow, careful, smooth. This is why education of these patterns of stalking, isolation, and attack are so important.
