    You think words can be dehumanizing but not actions?

    No, I think dehumanisation is a verb, it’s something someone does to another person. It’s something you’re doing, but you justify it when it’s something your victim also does. But that makes you no better than them - you’re both engaging in dehumanisation. The act is abhorrent no matter the excuse. And yet, you defend it, because you think your feelings are exceptional.

      Me saying rapists deserve no rights beyond a court trial is as abhorrent as raping a person…do you even know what you are saying or are you really that fucked in the head?

      Edit: you also realize my original comment was only offering a harsh punishment because of the parent comment for this whole chain right? Sending your own people who raped refugees you’ve taken in to wherever the refugee came from is fucking insane, that’s some full blown maga shit.
