Are there "humans" pretending to be humans?

when i think about that, i think about qualifications of a human. what makes a human human? is it their body, their personality, their actions, their words etc. 

and maybe supernatural is the most human thing in the world, just something that I haven't seen so far and that science hasn't discovered yet. because as a young adult, in my most monotone day i still discover things that never came to my mind before, discover things that i've never heard and so does my grandmother. that 'finding out' situation never actually ends so it slowly destructs the concept the 'super' from the supernatural, maybe today it is but tomorrow it will be my new natural and it will contunie like that until the end of the universe.

wtf this is so interesting

I'd say the inclination to see others as non-human is natural, but it really depends on a couple of things. First, how do you define "human"? A common scientific and etymological understanding of humanity comes from the Latin "humus" meaning "soil", which is found on Earth. So if it were another species like "humans," native to Earth, well, they would be humans. If they were misshapen or talked differently or things like that, that wouldn't make them non-human, just different. But let's assume that they weren't native to Earth. Then they wouldn't be "human" in the same categorical manner, they would be ontologically different, but if they looked and talked like humans then for all intents and purposes they are still human. Finally, if it wasn't a native species of Earth AND we could tell the difference, it would depend on how many of them exist. If it's everyone except for you, that doesn't really make a lot of sense, since you would just be an outlier in a world that you didn't belong in because legal and philosophical standards stipulate that countries are, if not in policy, are de facto run by the majority. Then you would be the outlier, not them. But if it were closer to like 50%, then I suppose we would have to learn to integrate with them. Overall, interesting idea.
