Well, there are terms that are recognized that are not acceptable, even when used as slangs such as real life terms used toward negros. (I won't go any further into it lest it becomes a political flame war).
The populance use them as a sort of measuring stick. If you're one of those "monsters", then you're not one of us. If you're not one of us, you're better off dead or somewhere else. That seems to be the gist of what Impact's experience was like.

But yes, your edited in statement was more or less what I was reaching at. Although that doesn't mean that it isn't ingrained in some way. :3

And as a slur, it's actually pretty powerful. To be called a monster is similar to being called a beast. And typically, if you're called a beast, it's similar to being called sub-human, a brute, suitable as a beast of burden. A savage of the wild without the notion of civilization. That sort of thing.

Just opinion though, and none which impact Renny directly at this point since he doesn't know a thing about it. :3
