hi anon i was intentionally not referring to capital H the Holocaust, but *a* holocaust. yes that is a real word that existed prior to the 1940s. my wondering was if israhell’s genocide in palestine would be in line with this specific definition, hence why i did not capitalize it, because it has a different meaning uncapitalized. you can check out the multiple definitions and historical origins of the word holocaust here
#idk i was taught that holocausts still occured globally before and after the Holocaust in like 8th grade#however i’ve also read a lot more about deconstructing Holocaust exceptionalism and how dangerous it can be to claim its inability to be#replicated. i’ve seen israelis calling for gaza to be made to look like auschwitz so it doesn’t quite sit right with me what you said either#‘4. any mass slaughter or reckless destruction of life.’ i quite think it fits the bill don’t you?
