Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No bigotry of any kind, including ironic bigotry.

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Sure, and what should we call it when it's a combination of methods like in the Nakba, for the purpose of clearing an area of people of the ethnicity in question, whether by killing, deporting, or scaring off?

It involved genocide, but displacement was also an important element.

I feel like you are playing obtuse word games in order to cling to a term which, as a brown "dirty" person, constantly reminds me of the white urge to purge me from existence to "cleanse" it

I'm saying it refers to a specific, historically significant type of campaign on the part of those supremacist groups, and I don't know an equivalent phrase.

Edit: I think your objection makes sense, but there should be some equivalent term. You can propose a new one and we can agitate to make it part of HB policy to enforce it, if you like.
