Do you find it hard putting pants on in the morning?

Genocide is only that when aimed at a race, not a locale

Genocide is the deliberate attempt to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group.

Is a nation or state a race? Is any race besides white a minority???

Fuck, you morons are exhausting.

I would put money on you being American though, you’re that willfully ignorant and obtuse, you removed are exhausting.

I was going to say the same thing about you, lol. Fuck no, I'm not American.

Technically Texan is a nationality/demonym with a shared culture. You could argue that killing everyone in Texas would be a genocide based on that, but it would be open to interpretation.

I think a better argument would be that killing everyone in Texas would necessitate the extermination of the Tejanos, which is an established ethnicity and shared culture native to Texas.

If you attempt to destroy the entirety of a people in a state/province/nation, I think that's pretty cut and dry, but yeah I get what you're saying.

It's mostly semantic, but arguing semantics is kind of the basis of any legal system. Imo most conflicts that reach a level of total war vicariously engage in a collection of genocidal actions even if that is not the original intent.

[–] Nonconfrontational@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 days ago (1 children)

No, most wars don't reach the level of genocide. Yes, most wars that the US has fought in reach the level of genocide. Hmm weird.

I clarified total war, which is when civilians and civilian infrastructure become legitimate targets of war.

You have an amazing ability to fluctuate between pedantry and purposeful ignorance.

[–] Nonconfrontational@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You have no amazing abilities.

Your mom would beg to differ.

[–] Nonconfrontational@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

She told me you have a small dick and cum before you even get your pants off. That is pretty amazing, I suppose.

[–] TranscendentalEmpire@lemmy.today 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I didn't say I fucked your ogre of a mom...... She just thinks I'm a nicer person than her "worthless child". Her words, not mine.

Lmao, good try, prejaculator!

[–] TranscendentalEmpire@lemmy.today 0 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

You seem to really want to bring this conversation back to me cumming on your mother...... Is this some kind of Freudian projection you have going on? Does thinking about Mommy make you want to bust?

[–] Nonconfrontational@lemmy.ml 1 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

Nice try. But your pants didn't even make it off. You pathetically came all over yourself lol.

So not a denial about the sexual thoughts about your mother and a stranger, you have a more indepth fantasy? That's a weird kink.

What? If you are being pedantic by focusing on my first statement and completely ignoring where I elaborated, what are we actually discussing here? My choice of words?

[–] Nonconfrontational@lemmy.ml 0 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Uhh yeah. Your choice of words in a written communication are pretty important. You said genocide only matters if it's done to a race. I said you were wrong. You provided the definition, which proved you were wrong. You insulted me. I insulted you back. I'm sorry if this was a difficult chain for you to follow. Better luck next time.

[–] TheparishofChigwell@sh.itjust.works 0 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yes I did under define, then elaborated to correct that. It's a human way to communicate conscisely. I am sorry for insulting you but attacking someone whole wielding a wrong definition yourself came across as rude to me and as a statement wholly driven by ego.

Someone else commented that genocide is any group, which is just short sighted. I'll be elaborating further there if your ego demands you nitpick further.

Nah, I don't give a shit, have a good weekend 👍
