It is very human to go to court and sue each other for libel or whatnot. It is very human to spread gossip in return for gossip spread about ourselves.
It is very human to stab each other in the back. But these are CERTAINLY unChristlike acts....
What would be more Christlike is to take everything as our share in the sufferings of Jesus Christ.
And for ourselves, who have been belittled by people, maligned by people, the challenge is that God is our judge, not our fellow men.
The challenge for us is to believe that it is God who will bring judgment and as well as payment to all our efforts, not our fellow men.
The whole world can be against us, but if God is with us, who can go against us?
