Genocide affects groups & individuals, and doesn’t require a total erasure. Bahanna culture is tattered & stained with past & ongoing genocides, as well as mass-destruction of animals. Regarding ‘the five precepts’ in Buddhism, Bahanna culture seems addicted to killing, stealing, sexual-misconduct, dishonesty, & alcohol. I regard the word ‘Bahanna’ (etymology: borrowed from Hopi) qua essential gift. There’s odd, & there’s evil/unskillful.
