Likewise, it's odd to throw out an arbitrary claim about my socioeconomic status as if that's reason to disregard my points. It's absurd at minimum, but it also reflects incredibly poorly to be the sort of person who looks down others based on how much money they have.
One doesn't need to look at an organisation frequently mired in horrific scandals (such as human trafficking) for a definition of what genocide involves nor does it strike me as appropriate to attempt to gatekeep what does and does not qualify as 'genocide' in a fictional setting. To be quite honest, I'm not particularly interested in dragging real world historical events into such discussions as it is often done in a very biased and hypocritical manner, often as little more than a point scoring exercise.

At any rate, given that Venat's actions resulted in the extermination of the Ancients - and she refers to herself as the 'last of her kind' you're free to claim otherwise but as I see it her actions were very much a clear cut case of genocide.
