Extermination (3h 44min, dec 13, 1937 y – 2h 47min, jan 17, 1938 y)
Description:
Going by Stanton's book, another stage of Genocide is Extermination. Extermination is when the "us" group of people starts killing people on a large scale. In the Nanking massacre, extermination happens when the Japanese soldiers brought 10,000 Chinese people to the Yangtze river and gunned them into the river as an easy way to get rid of their bodies. Another example of the extermination that occurred during the Nanking massacre was when the Japanese soldiers used Chinese people as live bayonet practice. That also partly falls under dehumanization, but it fits better under the umbrella of extermination.
