  • And somehow people vote for these sub-humans.

  • It may seem tempting to call them that, but it's also contemptible owing to historical precedent. You may be unaware that it's a direct translation of a Nazi term.

  • Sure, but I doubt that sort of consideration should apply when punching up instead of down.

    Burn the fucking lizard people.

    See? Totally fine

  • It may be unreasonable to call them sub human but I disagree with your reasoning. The etemology of the phrase sub human in English predates the Nazis by over 200 years. I would also venture that the direct translation of the Nazi term is under human.

    I do think you would have a case for the Nazi reflection if someone chose to use the expression in English "under human" or "under man" (which I believe has pre Nazi KKK origins) then I would totally agree with you.
