In-group glorification drives dehumanization and minimization which reduce justice support for own-side atrocities.
Evidence
Specifically, when the perpetrator is the out-group the relationship between the variables is not very systematic, but when the perpetrator is the in-group a coherent and meaningful model representing the psychological process emerges, supporting the mediating role of moral disengagement strategies in the relationship between in-group glorification and support for retributive and restorative justice. … Controlling (statistically) for in-group attachment and political affiliation, in-group glorification is positively related to the use of two moral disengagement strategies – that is, the higher the glorification the greater the explicit dehumanization of the victims and the downplaying of the suffering of the victims’ family members. … In turn, explicit dehumanization is negatively related to the support for restorative justice (reparations), and the downplaying of the suffering of the victim’s family predicts negatively both restorative and retributive justice (punishment of the perpetrators) (Leidner, Slawuta, & Castano, forthcoming). — Emanuele Castano, On the Perils of Glorifying the In-group, 54
