True

Explanation:

Immanuel Kant proposed the categorical imperative, which he deemed to be the supreme principle of morality. He believed that is morally wrong for an individual to treat others as simply a means rather than to treat them as an end. He also believed that treating people with contempt, even when not using them as a means is out-rightly wrong and against the moral norms.

An example of an individual using others as a means, is when an individual implicates another in other to win the favor of his boss or to get promoted.
