Nah, just chemically toxic.
You really should clarify whether you mean the state or the people.
States don’t have rights (they exist at the pleasure of their citizens), but people do.

It’s tribalism. “If it looks like a person, but it behaves differently from me, then it’s an outsider or a defect. Either way, it’s bad for the tribe, so get rid of it.” Definitely one of humanity’s darkest traits.
