What is the point of this? Fascists are obviously people. There is no non-person fascist. What do you gain by pretending otherwise?
Dehumanizing a fictional enemy lets collectivists and terrorist supporters feel like they are in a real war without being in one and also let's them balance the cognitive dissonance of a discourse that claims to accept others while in practice they just want to get rid of others
It's fascinating, actually
Not in any of the ways that matter.
