Like something key to understanding politics is that in every genocide that has ever occurred, some portion of the victims take up arms and try to fight back and they are always denounced by the killers as the original cause of the violence. Under current language, they’re called “terrorists” but different words have been used. Bandits and partisans (rebels) are popular ones.

The Rohingya in Myanmar are being slaughtered and a few have tried to fight back by attacking police stations. They are being called terrorists and are blamed by the Myanma government as being the cause of the violence in the first place.
