There is also of course the irony that the language @DrDeth uses is the exact same language used by the Nazis to justify their genocide, this example being from _Der Untermensch_ by Reichsführer-SS Heinrich Himmler.

> Just as the night rises against the day, the light and dark are in eternal conflict. So too, is the subhuman the greatest enemy of the dominant species on earth, mankind. The subhuman is a biological creature, crafted by nature, which has hands, legs, eyes and mouth, even the semblance of a brain. Nevertheless, this terrible creature is only a partial human being.
> 
> Although it has features similar to a human, the subhuman is lower on the spiritual and psychological scale than any animal. Inside of this creature lies wild and unrestrained passions: an incessant need to destroy, filled with the most primitive desires, chaos and coldhearted villainy.
> 
> **A subhuman and nothing more!**
> 
> Not all of those, who appear human are in fact so. **Woe to him who forgets it!** Every great creation, idea, and artistic expression on this planet were brought forth by real man. It was this true man that thought to invent and to create.
