Dehumanizing language should not be allowed

We’ve pointed out specifically what we mean be dehumanizing(or perhaps, demonizing) when it comes from the right. Perhaps you can point out specific examples when it is directed at the right?

Here are two examples. For the record, I’m 100% against a rule that would prohibit this kind of language in Politics & Elections. In the context of politics, civil discussion tolerates a bit of “dehumanizing language”. I’m all in favor of the existing rules which prohibit directing this kind of language to other participants of the conversation.

When your strategy hinges on you being the meanest dog in the neighborhood then, in the end, that’s what you are.

A dog.

I watched part of the first debate. I tuned in at the beginning but it started getting so painful I switched channels for a while. Came back, same thing.

I wonder how much of the debate tonight I’ll be able to take. I’d like to see the Donald make a fool of himself, but it kind of hurts. This is a guy who wants to be POTUS, and so far her’s acted like an ape(sorry, apes). And people, some of them, will still vote for him!
