Ethnic might? I don’t know how to teach you how to think critically I’m sorry. I would put money on you being American though, you’re that willfully ignorant and obtuse
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.
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.
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?
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.
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.

Do you find it hard putting pants on in the morning?
Is a nation or state a race? Is any race besides white a minority???
Fuck, you morons are exhausting.
I was going to say the same thing about you, lol. Fuck no, I’m not American.

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.

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.
Good for you.
