Trump knows what he’s doing when he calls his enemies “vermin” in his speeches and online. He’s dehumanizing them. This has happened to my community twice in my lifetime: once during World War II, and again during the pandemic. It is so dangerous, and Trump knows it. He’s preparing his base to do things that you can’t do to other humans, only to subhumans. Be warned. Be vigilant.

@georgetakei To be fair it is no worse than what the left has done to him. They have called him that and worse.
That said I dont particularly mind dehumanizing someone who doesnt act human (compassion towards their fellow man)... So dehumanize away, at worst ill judge you on who you target (as im sure Trump is targeting anyone who doesnt support him it is that aspect that speaks against him for me).
@freemo @georgetakei IDK, dehumanizing anyone is rarely a good idea, and “doesnt act human” is quite subjective criteria.
The criteria was stated, acting human here means "compassion to your fellow human"...
@freemo @georgetakei That’s even worse. Is a narcissist an animal?
@realcaseyrollins @georgetakei
All humans are animals.. So yes, but not for that reason.
Are we talking about a narcissistic who is incapable of caring but tries to act compassionately, or one who does not **act** compassionately.
But yes if a narcissist intentionally embraces not having compassion rather than trying to logically enact compassion (regardless of if they feel it) then they would not be part of human society and thus dehumanized in that sense.
Are we talking about a narcissistic who is incapable of caring but tries to act compassionately, or one who does not act compassionately.
I wasn’t making a distinction between the two because you hadn’t initially.
@realcaseyrollins @georgetakei
I didnt make the distinction because it was implied we were talking about how a person acts, no one cares nor can even determine a persons internal state.
