    Many claim that last stage of genocide is "denial"

    But i think last stage of genocide is "normalization" - genociders convincing peopke that what happened was just a fate or inevitable or even normal.

    Look at USA. Mfs dont deny their ancestors genocided natives, they claim it was "normal flow of history" and "it just happened"

    It is basicaly taunting those that survived - "look, we are so powerful we can admit our evilness without consenquences"

      "At least we can talk about it."

      Endless talk, maybe a hollow apology, never full reparations and return of sovereignty.

        Exactly.

        But when non-europeans uses their might and kick out empire (like in Haitian revolution) they instantly flip and critize their "cruelty" and "savagery"
