A quick definition of ethnic persecution:

Ethnic persecution is when people are treated unfairly and cruelly because of their race, nationality, culture, religion, or gender. It is a very serious crime that violates people's basic rights. To prove ethnic persecution, it must be shown that the victims were targeted because of their identity, that the mistreatment was part of a larger attack against a group of people, and that the person responsible knew what they were doing. An example of ethnic persecution is the mass killing of people in Rwanda.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Ethnic persecution is a crime against humanity where a group of people are targeted and deprived of their fundamental rights based on their identity. This targeting is often based on political, racial, national, ethnic, cultural, religious, or gender identity. The deprivation is committed as part of a widespread or systematic attack against a civilian population, and the perpetrator knows or intends the deprivation to be a part of this attack.

Examples: One example of ethnic persecution is the genocide in Rwanda, where the Tutsi ethnic group was targeted and killed by the Hutu ethnic group. Another example is the treatment of the Rohingya people in Myanmar, where they have been denied citizenship and faced violence and displacement due to their ethnic identity.

Explanation: These examples illustrate ethnic persecution because in both cases, a specific group of people were targeted and deprived of their fundamental rights based on their ethnic identity. The attacks were part of a widespread or systematic attack against a civilian population, and the perpetrators knew or intended the deprivation to be a part of this attack. These actions are considered crimes against humanity and are punishable under international law.

Nah, the fucked up thing about therapists is they try and make you think your parents are your enemy 99% of the time and really they should be telling you that your parents have almost no effect on the rest of your life. If they can get you to keep focusing on your parents they can keep making money.
