Acceptance and Promotion. When considering societal attitudes and sentiments surrounding individuals experiencing homelessness, dehumanizing stigmas often play roles in the tolerance and justification of harmful views and actions. There are many false myths that have become associated with homelessness, as mentioned in section 1.4. Views that these individuals are dangerous or criminals, are addicted to drugs, are lazy or somehow deserving of their circumstances, and other myths associated with experiencing homelessness draw attention away from issues of lack of affordable housing and impacts of poverty and also strengthen support for the reduction of these individuals to a single label or classification.107 Dehumanization is dangerous, and the societal normalization of it is even more so. Justifications for treating other human beings as sub- or non-human have fueled horrific and unthinkable actions, wars, and genocides throughout history. The association of negative emotions and stigmas towards these individuals and their continual dehumanization prove to shape, enforce, and justify inhumane behaviors and actions towards them.108 By associating the outgroup with negative, often dangerous or fear-inducing, stigmas, culturally-dominant group individuals can act “on a [biased] moral imperative and preserve their view of themselves as moral agents while indicting 107 “7 Myths About Homelessness – Homeless Voice.” Accessed July 26, 2020. xxxxx://xxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx/7-myths-homelessness/. 108 Xxxx, Xxxxxxx X., Xxxxx Xxxxxx, and Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx. “Thwarting Stigma and Dehumanization Through Empathy.” harm on others.”109 This justification perpetuates the culturally-dominant individuals’ feelings that their dehumanizing attitudes and actions are socially and morally acceptable. However, this justification is based on a denial of the full humanness of the outgroup members as well as each individual’s human dignity.110 This means of justification is often evident when groups are referred to as a nuisance or societal problem that needs to be removed – harmful views that are often associated with individuals who are experiencing homelessness.
