Absolutely right, but the added subtext is so that rich people win against poor people.
It's designed that way. It was on purpose.

It's a weird thing to compare. What's worse for a people: an incredibly traumatic experience that shapes a culture for generations to come or an incredibly traumatic experience that shapes a culture for generations to come?

I'm going to assume that you mean well, but aren't well informed on this subject.

Genocide isn't just about killing people. It's about destroying a people. The best example I know is how Canada treated/treats indigenous peoples.

Forced sterilization and children removed from their culture are two ways that these peoples have been decimated.

The Canadian genocide against the indigenous peoples has been recognized by multiple governments and falls within the common definition.

The genocide during the Holocaust was immediate and violent like a bomb. The Canadian genocide is a slow burn like a forest fire.

In the US the largest group of people without id's are Democrats and black.

It's literally making the system more racist.

I worked in a government office that supported a very seasonal industry.
My coworker had an 8:30 start and would be done her work by 9.
Other times we wouldn't have time in the day to finish, but the slow season was hell.
