Not here on Lemmy, but I’ve definitely seen some examples in the last few days that made me a little uncomfortable in other places online.

I can sympathize with the desire to dehumanize him because as an individual he’s completely reprehensible, but I just worry that the ease at which the dehumanization is happening that it’s allowing fucked up people to slip in anti-semitic messaging among it and that it’s helping solidify fucked up right wing bullshit views which are already running rampant.

Sorry if this is the wrong community for this, don’t hesitate to remove the post, mods.

    His ethnicity/faith has nothing to do with him being a terrible person. If someone criticized him FOR those reasons then they would be a fascist.

      I think the word you’re looking for is “racist.”
