Both groups are insulted, called ‘scum’ or ‘vermin’. Political hate speech is common, as is the use of social media to incite hatred. Minorities are demonized as if they pose a threat, rather than their vulnerability being acknowledged. There are real challenges for both these unwanted communities in getting access to the media, since they are already stigmatized, and they are confronted with real challenges in obtaining sufficient humanitarian assistance, living in tiny areas without any ability to grow or maintain their own food stocks.
