The voyeuristic coverage of the horrific prison conditions the rapist Russell Brand is enduring is somehow doing the work of both cultivating sympathy for a rapist and dehumanisation for the wider prison population who have to endure such conditions without rolling sympathetic coverage.

"the dehumanisation of Palestinians is so extreme that even their youngest, most defenceless members are regarded as legitimate targets by leading figures in both government and opposition."
Nothing is likely to change until israel faces global sanctions - as brought down South Africa's apartheid.

It wrecks my head that someone who has written so much about antisemitism can refer to trans identity (euphemised as gender ideology) as a “mutant virus”. Dehumanisation is sometimes fine it seems
A persistent problem for GCs, like Hadley here, is that despite winning some civil victories and devastating protections for trans people the trans people haven't gone "Okay, fair cop, we WERE faking it!"

Yeah that's absolutely it, total dehumanisation.

Well they finally got around to calling trans people "mutants". Imagine being freely allowed to talk about any other minority this way in a major newspaper.

if he'd massacred white people there would have been more outrage — but dehumanisation is a central element of fascism
hearing massie say hegseth ordered 243 extrajudicial killings is just so horrifying.

Very true, an excuse to further dehumanise people in the past, which inevitably also leads to dehumanisation in the present

intentionally occupy a third-gendered class and are facing that dehumanisation not just as like, an indirect consequence of their transness, but as a direct commentary on who they are and what they are worth as people.

No conclusion of criminal liability is presumed. The aim is independent legal scrutiny, balancing dignity, equality and freedom of expression.
We know one thing, we can't fucking live under this never-ending dehumanisation and duress.

it is fascinating to me how a large contingent of contemporary discourse about the dehumanisation of trans people is rooted in the concept of a trans people occupying a dehumanised third gender class without virtually any recognition of the fact that there is a whole subset of trans people who

I am staunchly against dehumanisation of any sort, and this is one good example. When you dehumanise the morally decrepit, you aren't exploring those moral ideas that make them wrong. It's better to explore all your moral principles. A core part of dehumanisation is ignorance.

do you really fuck with those who are denied humanity like that or only as long as they're inside the scope of dehumanisation you personally can relate to?

None of this is accidental. It is part of a disgusting plan of torture and dehumanisation intended to force Palestinians to depart their homeland (for wherever they can go) forever, with no prospect of return. There's a well-defined word for that, but apparently it's antisemitic to say it.

I would have imagined that a piece linking JKR and dehumanisation would have mentioned her own record of it if the author were thinking holistically - but in any case. If I weren't on a total JKR boycott I would write you that human rights piece :)

I wanted to not emphasise the gendered/sexed nature of the principles of flirting etc because it really is very simple in some ways. Unfortunately, the gendered/sexed disparity is so large socially it's impossible to not mention that massively rapey dehumanisation in the room.
