Would Be Rude to Say "Genocide"	comment	Some pesky population happened to get in the way and got exterminated as a side effect. For storytelling reasons, the operation may not be called genocide or otherwise be made to sound bad. There are three basic ways in which this can play: Admit it proudly, and inflate the figures. It wasn't just necessary, it was right. The demographic/species you exterminated were Always Chaotic Evil, and anyway A Million Is a Statistic. You might want to put narrative focus on how much better off all non-bad/normal/good people are now that the bad/weird/evil people are no longer around to contaminate and/or prey upon them. The only sad thing about any of it is how many non-bad/normal/good people suffered and died exterminating them. There is room for fudging the figures, but only upward — to make your extermination-achievement look greater, and your losses greater and/or more tragic as well. Avoid admitting it, and down-scale the figures. Maybe it was not 'right', but it was necessary. The demographic/species you dealt with were quite definitely Always Chaotic Evil, and it was all their fault anyway — it was you or them! Your own lot suffered so much more than they did that you can't even imagine how offensive it would be to suggest that they came off worse just because you dealt with them all! This trope is also how we got the term "ethnic cleansing", which stemmed from an euphemism by perpetrators to avoid saying "genocide" during The Yugoslav Wars. Genocide of who...? You never killed anyone, let alone these... what did you say they were called again? That whole time period you are so concerned about was very fuzzy — badly-documented, lots of records lost. It was a time of great unrest and upheaval. Even if they had been a real people, anything could have happened to those guys. Just because this hypothetical demographic is not around today does not mean someone killed them all — that is a very serious accusation! Where is your evidence? ...oh, I see. Have You Told Anyone Else? No? Well, nice knowing you. Can't very well start having a conscience now... Legally speaking, genocide is a category that is fairly recent, dating from the 1920s and entering public consciousness after World War II. The man who coined it, the lawyer Raphael Lemkin, defined it as "a coordinated strategy to destroy a group of people, a process that could be accomplished through total annihilation as well as strategies that eliminate key elements of the group's basic existence, including language, culture, and economic infrastructure." This was eventually enshrined into the 1948 UN Convention of Genocide where it defined genocide as actions, committed with demonstrable intent, to kill off "a national, ethnical, racial, or religious group". The key phrase is "co-ordinated" which establishes intent and infrastructure geared to achieving said crime, as well as whether a group of victims can fit categories of identifiable "nation, ethnicity, race, or religion". Since the category was codified, the word is often invoked by many individuals across the political spectrum, to invoke the word to describe any action of mass operations committed by states or organized communities, without regard to whether said example fits the 1948 definition. A large number of historians and scholars when examining allegations of genocide have generally struggled to separate deaths caused by famine, war, disease, or expansionism, many of which are consequences of government policies, often incompetently implemented, but lack the evidence of "co-ordination" to display the intent to destroy another people as part of original policy. Compare Villain with Good Publicity, Devil in Plain Sight, "Blackmail" Is Such an Ugly Word, Distinction Without a Difference, Deadly Euphemism, Metaphorically True and Never Say "Die".

Would Be Rude to Say "Genocide" / int_169f043b	comment	In StarCraft, Mengsk crosses a Moral Event Horizon by having the entire civilian population of the planet Tarsonis slaughtered by the alien Zerg so that he can crown himself emperor. In StarCraft II, he starts out as a Villain with Good Publicity who has managed to erase all traces of his crime. His loyal lackeys all shut up about it (or did he have them all assassinated?), and in the public social life of the empire, it's out of line to point out that the Zerg invasion of Tarsonis was convenient for Mengsk's power grab. To imply that the emperor was actually behind the attack is surely out of the question. Of course, there is one single exception to this dreadfully polite silence: Our hero, the main character, the "Traitor & Terrorist" Jim Raynor. Oh, and the genocide really backfires on Mengsk once the hero's forces have taken over the television network so the truth can no longer be suppressed.

All of them. In practice this mostly works out to them tracking down and destroying the most violent or those who disrupt the gossamer-thin, unspoken peace between Wards, but child Ghouls and peaceful Ghouls are not spared if detected. The sequel manga :Re has them truly crack down and make a concentrated effort to kill every last Ghoul, and rather than react in horror at the televised piles of corpses the public winds up cheering. It's about this point several members of the CCG start to become concerned about the organisation's direction.

Would Be Rude to Say "Genocide" / int_1cc09117	comment	Bleach: Yhwach has a history of targeting the Quincies whenever he wants to redistribute Quincy power, or simply power himself up. Six years before the story began, he enacted The Purge on all "impure" Quincies, killing entire generations of men, women, and children. He doesn't refer to this as "genocide"; he refers to it as Auswahlen, or "Holy Selection". When he uses a minor version on pure Quincies he no longer deems useful just to power up his "useful" Quincy, he tells the victims they should be happy because they're "supporting" their comrades. The only Quincy in history known to be immune to Auswahlen is Uryuu, who has been Kicked Upstairs by Yhwach in an attempt to find out why.

While Xavin's homeworld was just one colony of the larger Skrull Empire, so far as we know, the Majesdanians had only their planet and maybe a colony or two elsewhere, and thus it can be assumed that the Majesdanians are nearly extinct (to say nothing of any other lifeforms that lived on their planet...)

What makes it this trope is that the Vilebloods are consistently demonized by the last surviving Executioner as evil and corrupt heretics deserving of their fate.

As halting the cloning process would kill the current incomplete clone (and thus be murder), various legal experts tried to get the definition of murder changed in order to make it legal. As it turns out, they managed to get murder renamed (to 'revoked') but failed to achieve anything else (such as legally changing the spelling; 'revoked' is still spelt M-U-R-D-E-R-E-D). One tactic involved mass cloning another individual, Allitnil, who is irresistible to the Lintillas. Each Allitnil and Lintilla pair would be tricked into signing a death warrant under the guise of a marriage license, and the two of them would be vaporized. If later series are to be believed, the plan was quite unsuccessful.

Thus: If you successfully kill everyone, so no one is left to protest, no crime can be said to have been committed. Ironically, this institution is also a part of how they maintain social order: If one of the royal houses falls out of favor with their evil Goddess, then other houses will use this system to gang up on them.

Given that very few of them have committed crimes worthy of a death sentence, and the fact quite a few of them are innocents who joined the Society in gratitude after the Society rescued them from slavery, unjust imprisonment, torture, or other terrible fates... it reeks of Genocide. In addition: Weaver's Society is all but legally a nation unto itself, with infrastructure, territory, and such. Most obvious is when she offers forty citizens to the defense of Brockton Bay, more than half the number of capes the Protectorate could gather.

While they were a genuinely Always Chaotic Evil species of magical monsters, some of the collateral damage discussed when the same event takes place (with different means and participants) in the relevant canon — for instance, partly infected heroic members of a resistance organisation not only lose their superpowers but if they're past a certain age, suffer from No Immortal Inertia. This is again presented somewhat ambiguously; in this case, as something dark, though perhaps necessary, and something that emphasises just how terrifying Strange is capable of being.

In the face of this threat, the Red Dragons, after many years of conflict, decide the only thing to do is declare every single Black Dragon corrupted and beyond redemption and to exterminate every last one of them. That's every Black Dragon, Drake, Whelp, and Egg. And the player helps them do this, even personally dispatching the last fertile Black Dragon female and smashing her eggs. The irony of the Red Dragons, the Protectors of Life, being forced to declare indiscriminate oblivion on an entire species is not lost. However, in a far distant and unrelated quest, there are signs that the Red Dragons have taken steps to purify a Black Dragon egg and to restart the flight anew. With one member: Wrathion, who ended up killing off the entirety of the Black Dragon species, barring himself. Also played straight with the war against the now homeless Zandalar Tribe and the remnants of troll species (barring the Darkspear, who are playable). The Scarlet Crusade is an entire faction of Knight Templar fanatics formed in the aftermath of the Scourge occupation of Lordaeron. The Scarlet Crusade is infamously xenophobic and will immediately purge anybody not associated with them. Even though their primary enemy is the Scourge, the Scarlet Crusade justifies its killing of mortal races as preventing the undead plague from spreading.

Mayfield quickly begins losing his temper as his former commander waxes about the carnage inflicted on Rebels, civilians, and Imperials alike, but his former commander smugly insists what the Imperial Remnant has planned for the galaxy will make previous rounds of Operation: Cinder look like sparklers. In the second season finale, Mando and Cara Dune confront an Imperial officer who recognizes the latter as a survivor of Alderaan. He quickly begins taunting Dune about the genocide of her people, ranting that he was aboard the Death Star and how the galaxy cheered while millions of his comrades were wiped out with its destruction. The officer further rants how the destruction of Alderaan - despite being an unarmed, peaceful planet - was a small price to pay for peace in the galaxy. Dune takes this as well as youâ€™d expect a former Rebel shock-trooper who survived the extermination of her people and shoots him.

There is a nice planet with a nice plateau, but the plateau is inhabited. The Deathworlders suggest simply eliminating this population. 'Oh no' says the hero, 'that would be wrong'. Instead, they lead this war-like race off the plateau to rich farmlands where they can cut a swathe through the native population, enjoy their luxuries, get seduced by the lifestyle, and never return to the plateau. This wholesale slaughter is 'oh well you can't make an omelet without breaking a few eggs'.

Would Be Rude to Say "Genocide" / int_5c897f4a	comment	Schlock Mercenary: Played with in regards to T'kutts-Afa, who committed "sort of genocide." He forcibly uploaded mind copies of his entire species to a virtual world, then killed their living bodies and preserved them in a way that they could easily be resurrected. There's a strong argument to be made that this is not actually genocide but more a mass kidnapping, but everyone (including T'kutts-Afa) still calls it genocide because it's the only word that comes close to encapsulating what he did wrong. The worst part for him is that although he had some immensely compelling reason to do it he erased his own memory of the event and has no idea what it was. Petey later does something similar to save a heavily populated world from an approaching supernova. After everyone is uploaded, he sends bots to turn off all the appliances and stack the bodies in freezers on the off chance they'll be able to save the planet and move the people back in. One of T'kutts-Afa's victims is disturbed to realize he is sympathetic to the perpetrator of this atrocity.

Would Be Rude to Say "Genocide" / int_5e2cf42	comment	The band members of System of a Down are Armenian-American, and they are all very active in spreading the word about the Armenian Genocide. However, their music is almost never specifically about genocide: the only song from them that specifically mentions the word "genocide" is the song "P.L.U.C.K." (which stands for "Politically Lying, Unholy Corrupt Killers") from their self-titled debut album in 1997. "Holy Mountains" from their album Mezmerize/Hypnotize is also about the Armenian Genocide, but doesn't even mention that word. It's somewhat justified in the fact that their lyrics are primarily concerned with specific issues. They tend to tackle topics such as drug decriminalization and environmentalism in order to curb complacency in general, and Serj Tankian (the lead singer) even said that he would rather not preach about the genocide.

Would Be Rude to Say "Genocide" / int_629cd094	comment	A codex in Dragon Age: Origins talks about a long series of wars between the Qunari and all the other nations of Thedas. The Qunari were eventually driven back when they withdrew to avoid civilian casualties. In the lands they had occupied, there had been many converts to their strange, totalitarian, and brutal religion. When the Chantry could not convert them back, they simply purged the civilians and then denied that it ever happened. Several codices about the Exalted March Against the Dales detail how relations between the Elven Kingdom of the Dales and the other (human) nations soured after years of tension and a skirmish both sides blamed each other for; so the Orlesian Chantry invaded, conquered, and annexed the elven kingdom. The elves were given a choice: Convert to Chantry worship and work as second-class servants and laborers in closed off slums in human cities, or flee into the forest. Most Chantry clerics refuse to discuss it because it is "political".

Even after Kylier tries to get her to realize that she's going to become the new 'evil invader', Yggdra tells her "This is Justice." Then the game forces you to mow through the 'Bronquian Militia', which is basically a bunch of level 1 units trying to defend their homeland, and makes you feel very bad about it. "What is Justice?" is a question that a lot of people are asking throughout the game.

Would Be Rude to Say "Genocide" / int_7988cb68	comment	In the Mass Effect series, the extermination of the vast majority of the quarian species during the Geth War is successively downplayed from one title to the next. With dialogue in the first game stating directly that "the geth killed billions and drove [them] from [their] homeworld," the tie-in novels written by the lead writer of the first game and part of the second having the third-person narrator directly describe the geth's actions as "genocide in which less than a single percent of the [quarian] population survived", the second game limiting its description to "the geth drove [them] from [their] homeworld," and the third presenting it as a conflict in which the geth "won their freedom." It goes the other way, too; in the first game, Shepard can directly point out that the first strike against the Geth was an attempt at genocide, in the second there's a major Quarian faction who think it should be acknowledged as such, but by the third, the comparison is avoided even though we see recordings of Quarian kill teams massacring surrendering unarmed Geth. The Quarians actively trying to wipe out the Geth race during the game is also never called out. Another example from the series is the krogan genophage. With only 1 of 1000 infants surviving birth, the species is slowly, but surely dying out. While some people, like Maelon, regret it and see it as what it really was, most people, especially salarians and turians, try to downplay and justify it. This is a (potential) major point of conflict with Mordin, who goes out of his way to beat about it. As of the third game, he too realizes it was a mistake. Mass Effect: Andromeda gives us the kett, a race of Scary Dogmatic Aliens that invaded the Heleus Cluster and almost immediately started a war of extinction against the native angara roughly eighty years before the Andromeda Initiative arrived. It takes about a third of the game to uncover that the kett are actually perpetuating an Assimilation Plot that can be summed up as "convert any compatible specimen of every species we can get our paws on into more kett, kill the rest, then move on". It's literally the only way they can procreate now because they intentionally removed their reproductive organs via genetic engineering, which means they willingly chose to become a plague on the galaxy that has genocide of everything non-kett hard-coded into their life cycle. They call this insanity "exaltation", have built their entire society around it, treat it with religious zeal, and honestly think they're doing their victims a great favor.

They see themselves as improving the planets they take over (as among each other Souls are nigh-universally peaceful, kind, and altruistic, and so once the takeover is complete there is no more war or murder), and genuinely don't understand why people keep trying to stop them.

It is known that there was a civilization that was presumably destroyed during that century, as artifacts from it exist, but beyond that, nothing else is known because of how effective the World Government is at snuffing out any information. In Reverie Arc, when Im is revealed to the readers, we see him marking several targets and their pictures on a dartboard, and stabbing them. The Five Elder Stars bow to him, and ask Im's wish, on whose light should be cleansed.

It turns out in the end that the Child Soldiers were actually being trained to launch an invasion against the Buggers, resulting in the extermination of their species via Earth-Shattering Kaboom while tricking the children into thinking they were only playing a game. The Buggers themselves, thought to be Always Chaotic Evil by most Earthlings and portrayed as such in propaganda, were actually peaceful, having ended their hostilities against mankind generations ago. And the initial hostilities were an honest misunderstanding. They didn't mean to start a war, they were just saying "hello" by introducing their drone-soldiers to our territory and having them fight a bit. Drone-soldiers killing each other is roughly analogous to a hand-shake because each individual drone has no mind of its own. They had no idea that ALL of our drone-soldiers were actually individual Queens. How insane is that, an entire race of Queens and nothing but Queens? Who could possibly have predicted such a form of intelligent life existed? They became passive when they realized this, in the sense of only now fighting a defensive war. They made no further attacks and merely tried their best to not be wiped out by the vengeful hand of humans, who they were trying desperately to communicate their apology to. (It nearly worked.)

Anything involving Magneto and his views on genocide is always rather uncomfortably ironic since his whole motivation is to wipe out the entire human population (and he nearly succeeds in X2). Naturally, he never applies the apt description of genocide when it's him. Surprisingly, even after the number of movies made, no-one has yet called him out on this hypocrisy.

Would Be Rude to Say "Genocide" / int_b6c15d0	comment	The Conversion Bureau has ponykind forcing mankind to "convert" en masse into ponies. If they don't, they're killed. That this is genocide is ignored by both the ponies and the authors, who see it as the best possible thing that can be done. The fact that the authors gleefully ignore this and in fact treat it as a good thing (sometimes going so far as to vehemently defend it) is actually frightening and was in fact a factor for the very first TCB fic never being finished. However, most deconstruction stories often subvert this trope where humans and ponies alike realize the true meaning behind the bureaus and often rebel against Celestia.

Would Be Rude to Say "Genocide" / int_c62995ba	comment	Child of the Storm: It's noted that after the Dheronians, who destroyed Krypton with Thanos' support (and were originally Kryptonians themselves, many thousands of years before), finished the job, they departed in Nine Fleets. It's also noted that Asgard, Krypton's ally, found eight of them (the location of the ninth is unknown), methodically destroyed the vast majority of the adult population, only sparing the children, who it banished to who knows where. This is portrayed fairly neutrally, as a demonstration that while the main characters generally see the Lighter and Softer side of Asgard, there's a darker side too. In chapter 52 of the sequel, Doctor Strange enacts the genocide of the Red Court of Vampires by murdering Camazotz, the Mayan God that spawned them. While they were a genuinely Always Chaotic Evil species of magical monsters, some of the collateral damage discussed when the same event takes place (with different means and participants) in the relevant canon — for instance, partly infected heroic members of a resistance organisation not only lose their superpowers but if they're past a certain age, suffer from No Immortal Inertia. This is again presented somewhat ambiguously; in this case, as something dark, though perhaps necessary, and something that emphasises just how terrifying Strange is capable of being.

Would Be Rude to Say "Genocide" / int_d25b42c6	comment	Played straight to the very end of the Critters quadrilogy. Even in the last movie, where they hint at this trope being in place, when the crites have almost completely been annihilated but cannot be completely made extinct because galactic law prevents doing this, those trying to protect the last of the critters assume the role of the 'bad' guys, even though one of them, the shapeshifter 'Ug', was a returning 'good guy' from all the previous movies. In the end, the 'bad guys' are defeated and the last of the crites are destroyed and that evil bastard Ug who was trying to save them from extinction is killed as well, and there is much rejoicing. Ug had the upper hand in the situation, but the 'good guys' took him down by pointing their guns at the last of the crite eggs, and he had to make a fatal mistake trying to protect them. Isn't it nice when the 'good guys' use sleazy bad guy tactics to kill the virtuous bad guy?

(That one person was someone he owed a favor, his billions of victims were not.) Of all the people who witness this tragedy, only Bergelmir says anything about this action being immoral, and even he is quite polite about it. Even so, everyone else simply ignores him as they would a person who's being generally rude, impolite, and socially inappropriate. Those present know that annoying Lucifer is really not the best course of action if your plans involve seeing another day, so they're probably staying quiet out of simple self-preservation. But in any case, elsewhere in the comic, it is mentioned that it's impossible to destroy a soul — it simply unravels and then rewinds itself over millennia. And considering that the Mansions of Silence are in some ways worse than Hell, it could just as well be said that Lucifer granted their inhabitants a break from their usual torment.

According to the author, the original inhabitants of Telmar were so evil that Aslan turned them all into non-sapient animals, effectively ending their lives as people.

Somewhat notably, a hag and a werewolf appear (as minor villains) after Miraz forces all remnants of Narnia into hiding. Make of that what you will.

Would Be Rude to Say "Genocide" / int_e235270c	comment	Stellaris You can "purge" anything from individual pops (each of which represents roughly one billion people) to entire species, including your own, but no matter what the game calls it, it's genocide on a mind-boggling scale, the other empires in the galaxy are very aware of it and tend to react suitably appalled if you indulge in it. Methods range from comparatively merciful mass neutering to execution squads systematically going from house to house. The tool tip for the latter option even includes another cynically trivializing term: "dissolution of a people". Early versions of the game allowed absolutely everyone to purge anyone they didn't like, but later updates restricted the ability to purge pops to the morally darkest grey and black empires, which usually means some combination of militaristic and xenophobic mindsets. The most extreme Absolute Xenophobe factions have this hard-coded into their foreign policy — every alien species they conquer gets purged automatically, resulting in their total extinction in as little as two years. Meta-example, the game is still plagued with horrendous lag late game, due to the number of renders and background calculation which only gets worse as more of the galaxy gets colonized. Obviously, the lag can be alleviated by, shall we say, 'reducing the number of renders', especially those of other empires. This is one of the reasons why Fanatical Purifiers is quite a popular play style.

The manga series Mobile Suit Gundam: The Origin, which covers the events leading up to the original anime, includes this operation. Admiral Dozle Zabi invokes this trope when, while briefing Lieutenant Ranba Ral on Zeon's plans, Ranba reacts incredulously to the outright murder of an entire colony's citizens. Specifically, Dozle tries to convince Ranba to command the operation by downplaying the genocidal aspect — not only countering that Ranba was already responsible for the deaths of a hundred million colonists but that the colony group was a defeated enemy nation. Using one of their colonies as a weapon, Dozle tried to argue, would make their deaths "count for something." Ranba disagrees, considers this operation the work of the devil, and refuses to take part any further.

It takes about a third of the game to uncover that the kett are actually perpetuating an Assimilation Plot that can be summed up as "convert any compatible specimen of every species we can get our paws on into more kett, kill the rest, then move on". It's literally the only way they can procreate now because they intentionally removed their reproductive organs via genetic engineering, which means they willingly chose to become a plague on the galaxy that has genocide of everything non-kett hard-coded into their life cycle.

In the earlier encounter, there was just one Chloran planet; the option of genocide (called explicitly by that name) was considered, but due to pleadings of "soft-hearted" women the milder option of sending the planet far away was taken. But when discovering a faraway galaxy with millions of Chloran planets, the protagonist Seaton decides that the Chlorans are "a cancer" and a danger to the entire universe and that nothing would do but to kill every single one of them — emphatically rejecting any other option. He and his arch-enemy turned ally DuQuesne proceed to do just that, causing all the Chloran suns to go nova. "The Chlorans died in their uncounted trillions. The greeny-yellow soup that served them for air boiled away. Their halogenous flesh was charred, baked, and desiccated in the split-second of the passing of the front wave from each exploding double star, moments before their planets themselves started to seethe and boil. Many died unaware. Most died fighting. Most died in terrible, frantic effort to escape... But they all died." Immediately afterwards, DuQuesne, feeling not the slightest remorse at having just killed uncounted trillions of sentient beings and destroyed an entire galaxy, proposes to his long-cherished lady love and is thrilled to hear that she truly loves him. (DuQuesne, however, is a self-admitted villain.)

Would Be Rude to Say "Genocide" / int_fd6407b	comment	In the Strontium Dog arc "The Final Solution", The New Church publicly claims that they're moving the mutant population in New Britain to new homes in another dimension where they can live in peace away from normal human beings. What they're really doing, however, is rounding up mutants from their ghettos and dumping them in a dimensional wasteland to be stranded and killed by an Eldritch Abomination, but they know that nobody would make much fuss if they make it sound like a peaceful relocation program.
