4. Dehumanisation: Members of a persecuted group may be compared with animals, parasites, insects or diseases

Description

Viewing a group as "less than human" facilitates violence and murder. During this stage, hate propaganda in print and on hate radios is used to portray victims as villains. Combating dehumanization requires acknowledging that freedom of speech does not include the right to incite murder.
