10. It's easy to think in that manner

It's quite easy to think in that manner once we depersonalize them, and then pretend to ourselves they lack humanity.

On the flip side, it also means Pogo was correct: we have seen the enemy-- under the cool fluorescent rays of the bathroom mirror.

I suppose at the end of the day, we advertise our character to others far more clearly when we don't really mean to.
