    depopulate is a pretty weird way to say “genocide”….

    i, from my armchair, think it’s more about “hearts and minds”… as in, according to the us army guerilla warfare handbook, a guerilla army is impossible to defeat if they are well supported by the populace.

    they can always disappear into someone’s home, and can always get new supplies….
    well, unless you genocide the entire country….
