I think it’s important to remember that everyone is human. Not because of some sort of innate goodness people have, but viewing people as demonic or monstrous is, in my opinion, magical thinking and should be avoided. It’s tempting to believe some people are irredeemable monsters who will never do anything good and it’s tempting to believe that evilness comes from outside of humans and wages war against us, but no. People are people. I’m aware that just saying “I don’t view them as humans” isn’t really throwing your hands up and saying there’s nothing you can do, it’s correlated with that type of stuff and I think it’s dangerous.
