Genocide and ethnic cleansing are not interchangeable. Genocide is destruction of a group of people, ethnic cleansing is physical expulsion or exclusion of a group of people from an area.
Trying to downplay genocide as ethnic cleansing is arguably a type of Holocaust denial, but most people don't understand the nuances.
I’m sorry I didn’t understand those terms clearly.
I was trying to emphasize that the Nazis’ categorical decisions were based on race, sexuality, and political affiliation.
The Soviets’ selection process was mainly based on politics and economic class.
