The term itself precedes World War 2, Raphael Lemkin coined it in the wake of the Armenian Genocide, I’m pretty sure.

BadEmpanada made a video arguing that the term “genocide” should be done away with because of how much it muddies the waters (as an example he compared the Srebrenica Massacre, declared a genocide in court, versus comparable massacres elsewhere in Bosnia that weren’t). It also overlaps with a bunch of other legal terms like crimes against humanity, so it ends up diminishing atrocities that come close but for one reason or another aren’t considered one.

A Saudi in Germany committed a terror attack recently in the same vain as ISIS’ attack on a Christmas market in Berlin, for Germany not being Islamophobic enough. I wouldn’t dismiss the possibility, fascists are never satisfied.

Further confirmation that JDPON Don is a Maoist :sparrows: /s

I remember when the family separation/kids in cages story blew up during the first Trump administration, a woman defended her description of the detention centers as concentration camps by saying:

“Do we have to wait for an actual Holocaust to happen before we speak up?”

That stuck with me.
