What word would you use for the wiping out of 90% of the population lol

Not genocide because it doesnt meet the definitions.

Keep digging holes for yourself.

You made the claim:

Largest European Genocide in history

Stop dancing around it and prove your claim.

Edit: Im done with you. This is a waste of time. We both know you cant prove your claim and you're just going to reply with some other nonsense.

    Largest European genocide in history.

    You said it was the largest genocide in European history. I asked you to prove that and you didnt. Your source doesn't even mention genocide.

    They wiped out 90% of the population you plank

    Your source doesnt say that either. The part you yourself highlighted says:

    steppe-related ancestry and was associated with the replacement of approximately 90% of Britain's gene pool within a few hundred years.

    Genetic replacement doesn't mean genocide you plank. And it doesnt mean "ThEy WiPeD tHeM oUt!!!" either. That's why genocide isn't mentioned anywhere in the article you sourced.

    The only plank here is you. You've made it very clear that you don't actually know what genocide means. Genocide has a specific definition. So why don't you look up what that is before you make a fool of yourself any further?

    Except it isnt an historic fact because the Beakers didnt "wipe them out". They were absorbed into Beaker culture over hundreds of years due to migration.

    And Beaker is a cultural phenomenon, not a race of people. Those Beaker people on the island of Ireland were not necessarily genetically related to those on the continent.

    And even if they did wipe them out, the Beakers were not a single unified people under one flag and one leader like the Brits. Why would people living far off on an island off the west coast of Europe have anything to do with the actions of people on the continent just because they make similiar pottery?

    Your comparison is ridiculous.
