    Oh, by no means. The never ending task of identifying which
    groups cannot be hated is one of the primary responsibilities
    of enlightened governments everywhere.

    Ah, thanks for the clarification. Of course, were serial murderers
    to organize into a voting bloc or rights group, naturally that would
    be different. But it makes perfect sense that mere collections of
    people, e.g., "white persons" should not be conflated with actual
    pressure groups or identifiable ethnic groups united by genuine
    solidarity due to oppression, discrimination, racial consciousness,
    etc.

    I am afraid that you are confusing genocide with campaigns of hatred,
    which are not always the same thing.

    Well, there can be little doubt from the link on your page,

        Campbell's Genocide is a cleverly pre-planned, pre-meditated
        attack on an "identifiable group" of known political-cultural
        enemies, ie a population which has a long record of voting
        against his political party and political interests. Common
        sense tells us that his calculated policies and programs will
        take many lives according to the "odds" or statistics. What
        he has underway is COLD BLOODED MURDER, more sinister for that
        reason than the murders by the Port Coquitlam Pig Farmer. This
        premier is a murderous psychopath. There is no "time clock" on
        prosecution for genocide. In time, Campbell, Plant and their
        accomplices will be brought to justice.

    and, more sinister by far, the missing persons! Extropians have
    just responded to a plea to those who know of direct victims of
    terrorism, and the call should probably go out to those who are
    aware of Canadian missing persons. Speak up!

        Since 2001, several "Exit Surveys" of persons who have left
        MHR rolls have been used to cover up the missing persons of
        MHR. Only about 1/3 of those surveyed have been interviewed.

        The question has to do with the 2/3 and the missing persons
        implications. The Campbell Government has cleverly focused
        attention on the 1/3, falsely asserting that this proves
        success for their policies and programs. They distract
        attention from the 2/3 missing to MHR.

    Ah, but it would be well to remember that these figures can have
    relevance only against the normal background frequency of those
    abducted by aliens. The actual figures could be far less, because
    abductions by flying saucer also target the same group: the poor,
    the defenseless, those least likely to be missed!

    But my main point is that such programs of extermination do *not*
    necessarily have to be characterized by hate. It is true that
    historically, most pogroms have indeed been spawned by the hatred
    of groups convinced of their own racial or class superiority, but
    in this day and age, remember that such campaigns could be carried
    out by cold-blooded people like those you expose merely for short-
    term political advantage---no real hate involved. Likewise, a lot
    of the hate prohibited by the enlightened Canadian legislation
    does not affect groups whose hatred (e.g. of the Campbellites)
    would in turn lead to pogroms or genocide.
