Its unfortunate that the way our brains process ingroup and outgroup perceptions leads to such depravity spilling out of what we'd consider those who are true sociopaths into the thoughts and actions of every day people. The bug in the code of human cognition that is social identity theory is essentially dehumanization, the creation of facism, and genocide.
