      Holocaust is the name of one particular genocide. There is only the one. Perhaps the word will be used for another genocide some day but if so it’s going to be entirely arbitrary.

          wow! you’re actually insane!

          Holocaust as a word has an ancient etymology meaning ~fire, but as a proper noun it refers to a (particular) genocide. The holocaust did in fact happen and Jews were targeted. Fuck off nazi.
