again, a war cannot in it of itself be genocide, a war however can perpetrate genocide.

Much like a car can perpetrate transportation, but in it of itself is not literally transportation.

Amazing, you stopped genocide with semantics. Truly inspiring feat.

i didn't stop it. Do you actually have 3 braincells?

A war can happen independently but at the same time as a genocide, and you can have a genocide without a war, the two are not intrinsically related.

By this argument i've completely destroyed the transportation industry, because there is no more fucking transportation.

You do not have to say it "again". I ignored it the first time because there's no logical reasoning or evidence for this. Until you do, it's not something that I can respond to.

there literally is logical reasoning for this.

Notably the fact that war and genocide are LITERALLY defined as different words.
