What about Wiki bro?

You basically lost the argument a long time ago...and it may be an unusual museum, but many massacres are owed a holocaust tag.

The Black Holocaust
The Greek Holocaust
The Chinese Holocaust

What about the million Indians that were massacred over 100 years by the US government? That not important enough to be termed a holocaust either?


The more I think about it, the more pissed I get because people haven't educated themselves well enough to recognize any of these holocausts. The word isn't reduced to a single event, and by rights the term shouldn't be either. That's definitely offensive.

Didn't bother responding to your wikipedia post, because, well, it's wikipedia.

Without a qualifier, the term holocaust almost always refers to the Judeocide. I'm fairly certain that's been well established by now. You have to explicitly qualify another genocide whenever you aren't talking about the Judeocide because the working definition of holocaust has been so well established by those who use the term the most.
