    So they know about the meaning of the word “genocide”. Why the fuck are they actively doing that now

      I guess they wanna throw a shade by contrasting the numbers. 1.5 million deaths in 2 years vs 76000 deaths in 3 years. Or in relative terms, 60-70% vs 4%.

      They kinda have a point there, even though the official UN definition of genocide of course doesn’t rely on number of deaths but intent. But usually, genocidal intent leads to high number of deaths, doesn’t it? Especially when your military is so much more powerful.

      Then again again: Srebrenica. “Only” 8000 deaths. But in 11 days.
