What "culture" says it's okay to treat humans as if they are animals?

MAGA culture. Often frames people they don't like as "vermin", and it sets up a permission structure to cause violence against them by labeling them as diseased or inherently criminal.

Whoever it is you think is out there doing it and promoting it. That's why we have phrases like "a culture of harassment", "a culture if lies", etc.
The point is things that appear as universal absolutes are not the same for everyone.
