An expert in the field has spent a lifetime studying, writing, debating, and thinking about the field. We can survey the course catalog at Stockton on Genocide studies to get a first taste in what a expert would be able to contribute.
These specifically stand out as focuses relevant to our conversation today ‘Witness to Genocide, Genocide War Crimes and Law, War Nationalism and Genocide, Ordinary Evil’… tell me what is your philosophy on Ordinary Evil?
You gave such a thoughtful well crafted response to a person who is clearly being a troll. But thank you for that, at least you provide good reading materials.
I try not to think of them as trolls, more like explain it like I’m five users. Imagine most of the internet is basically sugar hyped toddlers with the attention span of goldfish, and a rough grasp of the English language.
Explain it like I’m 5, is probably still too high a bar. :)
You can think about them whatever you like, doesn’t make them any less trolls. Also they want to get a reaction out of you, and all you are doing is feeding that.

Raz Segal appears to have done lots of research of the societal bystander effect, where a genocide can happen without anyone getting involved…

That’s a long list, but is there anything in there on genocide you couldn’t figure out yourself?
All of it, the context, the implications, the patterns…
I am not as intelligent and intuitive as you, I have to do research practice, and communicate before I can compete with an expert in a field.

I’m clearly not as gifted and as well read as you, I have to do research before I know a subject.
