Do you ever find the term `dude' mildly insulting?

i think it’s usage has an objectifying resonance to it, it kind of seems distant, abstract and dehumanising, say in comparison to the term `Brother.’ For example : `some Dude got killed, and then his body was torched in a car.’....Not some grieving mother’s Son…just some Dude. That would be a casual use, however i also think it is deliberately employed in a derogatory way.
