NO we are still the same species.
I also get a lip twitch when I hear atheists say "When we become the majority we will treat you better",
NO NO NO NO, that is part of the "virtue of the oppressed" and that is in the moment when how you are treated is direct and fresh because you are living it. A future majority generations from now after we die will not be closely connected to the past.
Ultimately we are the same species and no label give anyone a patent on morality. No label will automatically make you do good or bad. Our species ability to be cruel or compassionate is in our evolution, not the labels we assign ourselves.
