  • Jokes aside it’s a good conversation. It is a vague term and continues to be the world’s most popular word for the greatest crime imaginable. What I find interesting is that mass killing of people of a particular political ideology still falls out of the bounds of the ever growing definition of genocide.100,000 communists in South Korea are systematically killed and it doesn’t capture the imagination quite the same if it can’t be called genocide.

    I’m not arguing that genocide should be a more vague term. I feel like a need a word for mass killing of largely unarmed demographics that is more flexible.
