“The Great Replacement” is a racist and misogynistic conspiracy theory that holds that white people face existential decline, even extinction, because of rising immigration in the West and falling birthrates among white women (caused, of course, by feminism). ...Actually the commonly accepted definitions of genocide do not require mass death:
“White genocide” was one branding possibility, but that label has failed to take off — perhaps because a claim of “genocide” requires unmistakable mass death, and what we’re talking about here is gradual, peaceful demographic change.
Genocide is intentional action to destroy a people (usually defined as an ethnic, national, racial, or religious group) in whole or in part. The hybrid word "genocide" is a combination of the Greek word γένος ("race, people") and the Latin suffix -caedo ("act of killing").[1] The United Nations Genocide Convention, which was established in 1948, defines genocide as "acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial or religious group".Manjoo goes on to make these points: (1) white numbers will not decline so much if mixed race people identify as white; (2) whites are still doing much better than blacks; and (3) whites will still have a majority in the 2036 election.
Okay, I accept these points, but they do not rebut the argument that there is a systematic set of policies to destroy white people in part, and replace them with non-whites.
