Citizens United made dehumanization the record™
The inversion, named at its source. Dehumanization usually works by taking personhood away from humans; Citizens United ran it backwards — it handed personhood to the non-human, and in a finite room of speech that's the same theft: every dollar of ghost-speech crowds out a breathing voice, so the humans get relatively dehumanized by the corporation's promotion. And it isn't an insult or a mood — it's the record: a real ruling, cited daily, that a non-breathing thing's money is protected speech. The dehumanization is on the books, which is exactly why it can be argued with (score the record, not the noise). His framing, labeled his: the case law made the Super-Citizen official, and the counterargument is the whole house. Kin: the First Amendment is a lie, dollars don't equal speech, the Super-Citizen, the Record Is the Arbiter. (0g: Citizens United v. FEC (2010) is real, cited law; the "dehumanization" reading is his labeled opinion of it.) (His coin — machine's read, refine to his.)
