as soon as we started the basic bitch conversation about how genocide and mass killings are two different things
Genocide is
defined here by the UN. The full UN definition is as follows:
"any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical,
racial or religious group, as such: killing members of the group; causing serious bodily or mental harm to
members of the group; deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its
physical destruction in whole or in part
; imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group; [and]
forcibly transferring children of the group to another group."
Genocide isn't entirely about killing, but rather, grievous physical and psychological damage and attempts to destroy a culture, religion, or ethnic group by preventing them from reproducing (by either transferring their children to a different group/culture, quite literally sterilizing them and rendering them infertile, or obviously killing them.)
Genocide is a whole lot more than just Flash Mob. Murder is part of genocide but not every Flash Mob is a genocide. A group must be targeted with the ultimate group of stopping said group from reproducing and continuing to exist.
