@drq Oh, Wikipedia, lol!
The funny thing is the claim of the notion of "Transgender genocide" in this article refers to Jones, Adam (2017), who wrote nothing about transgender genocide in his book and Waites Matthew (2018) who mainly oppose Lemkin who initially defined it as "race" or "tribe". Matthew argues that in his opinion it is not correct as "race in biological terms is a fiction" and prefers to focus on the cultural aspects of "tribe" but not biological. This is very arguable and the discussion supposes to be still open, as it's not clear then whether was it Jew 'genocide' in Germany as most of the German Jews didn't identify themself as "Jews" actually but culturally identified themself as "Germans".
This is better to use precise terminology that conveys meaning but not emotions. I understand that "genocide" is a strong word whose connotation can be used to increase the emotional aspect of the message, but I suppose that for this particular situation words like: "discrimination", "persecution", and "attack" better fit the context.

> words like: "discrimination", "persecution", and "attack"
... don't paint an adequate picture. It's targeted extermination.
