Question

Write like an 8th grader. In three sentences, summarize why the governments initiate mass killings and genocide.

Answer 1

Governments might start mass killings and genocide to control or get rid of groups of people they see as a threat or who they don’t like, often because of their race, religion, or beliefs. They might think that eliminating these groups will help them maintain power or achieve their goals. Sometimes, they use propaganda to justify their actions, making people believe it's necessary for the good of the country.
