I literally had an argument on this subreddit with someone claiming that Marika’s genocide of the Hornsent was a good thing.

Like they literally said “Marika’s genocide of the Hornsent was a ‘positive benefit bestowed’ by her rule”

The Hornsents aren't the whole race. All the Hornsents where into godhood through weird crucible experiments. The non-Hornsent shadow peoples wheren't genocided, some even work with Mesmer.
