Huh. I see it a little differently. I believe humans can dehumanize other humans for "reasons" other than the external appearance of their physical body. Religion, for example. Hitler, various conflicts in Africa. China right now with the Uighurs. Etc. Or, disease states of their brains. Just my take, though.
