The Weekly Verdict

Death, Dignity, and Dehumanization

Episode 2

From assassination attempts to online outrage, we explore how America has traded dignity for dehumanization.

Are politicians still people? In an age of social media, political tribalism, and nonstop outrage, it has become easier than ever to see our opponents as avatars instead of human beings. In this episode of 'The Weekly Verdict,' Thomas, Andrew, and Sterling examine the rise of political dehumanization, the loss of dignity in public discourse, and why Americans increasingly celebrate the suffering of people they disagree with.
