I'm sorry, does that label impact our debate whether rationality implies terminal values?
My point is that, while an agent that is not confused about its values will not change them in response to rationality (obviously,) one that is confused will. For example, a Nazi realizing Jews are people after all.
Sorry if that wasn't clear.
Taboo "people".
"not Evil Mutants"
Hairyfigment's answer would also work. The point is that they are as worthy of moral consideration as everyone else, and, to a lesser extent, that they aren't congenitally predisposed to undermine civilization and so on and so forth.
'Share many human characteristics with the Nazi, and in particular suffered in similar ways from the economic conditions that helped produce Nazism.'
