Since all bigotry by definition dehumanizes the target class, the bolded is the kahuna, the ace of spades, the 800-pound gorilla.
Get people to rent that idea, and bigotry of all sorts is set free.
Having a not-quite-human class to blame for society’s woes, real and imagined, is a universal feature of totalitarian misosophy (my suggestion for the opposite of philosophy).
It ends always in the same place.

Conservatives have a constant need to be the victims, while they move the needle ever right. There is no compromise to be had with those who want your extinction. I don’t need to understand why they’ve convinced themselves this is a moral course of action to recognize where it leads, history tells us as you’ve pointed out.

I would say the hard right. The word conservative has been as effectively misappropriated as the word freedom by the hard right.
I might be wrong, but I still imagine that there is a space to the right of center that is legitimate within a plural republic. What almost all Republicans in government are currently promoting is fascist and corporatocratic, not conservative.
Similarly, Christian Nationalism is neither scriptural nor republican; it is insurrection politics of the sort to make the few honest Christians wince.

too bad their definition of "good men" is so fatally flawed...it should read "the day is coming when mindless drones will get murdered trying to do the will of their fascist masters, and it will be the responsibility of those masters."

For me it was the “assault life” watermark. They’re almost self-aware.

I am curious. What is assault life?

I have no idea, I can only go off of the definition of the words. Probably not the sentiment they’re shooting for. I couldn’t resist.
