What are you talking about? Did you bother to read the definition of genocide? Not everything revolves around race, like the spin masters on the television want you to believe.
Let's try this one more time... Here is the definition of the word "genocide". Read it a couple times over, just to make sure you got it... Then try again.
"The deliberate killing of a large number of people from a particular nation or ethnic group with the aim of destroying that nation or group."
Notice the word "nation"...
My original reply was meant to be sarcastic.
To clarify, I don't think the fentanyl crisis is an example of genocide. I think the Chinese like all the money they can make with it and its severely negative impact on our population is just the icing on the cake as far as the Chinese are concerned.
So the OP seems to be saying that the drug dealers are intentionally trying to kill off their customer base?
Good point. However, I must say that for every overdose, ten new addicts seem to pop up. Our society, our culture, and our country have gotten on a downhill slide. All we Americans seem to be doing about it is upping the cultural war which gets neither side anywhere and helps the addicts not at all.

First it was Heroin, then PCP, then Crack, then Meth, now Fentanyl give it a few years and their will be a new cause for this alleged genocide.
I would hazard a guess that most people who died from Fentanyl overdoses had no intention of taking Fentanyl in the first place. It is being put in heroin, cocaine, "street pills" and other drugs. PCP was sometimes used to lace marijuana a long time ago, but this is on an order of magnitude worse.

It's obvious there are plenty of other players in this game. The drug dealers aren't the ones producing this stuff. They are just adding it to the product to make the product more potent.
I honestly consider it thinning the herd and don’t mind it.
Killing teenagers is thinning the herd? That's ghastly.
This stuff is ending up in the hands of people who have no idea what's in it.
