How does PlayHouse deal with hate speech?

Hate speech is content that attacks someone, or uses discriminatory language about them, because of who they are. That includes race, ethnicity, national origin, immigration status, caste, religion, sex, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, age, disability, serious illness or veteran status. Hate speech, threats and harassment aren't allowed on PlayHouse.
