Past Christianity was also all about the genocide.

Well absolutely in the judeism base of it. Old testament was constantly "god prepared this perfect place just for you" "whoops looks like there's already a thriving civilization of happy people there, they must be evil why else would they have taken the land I promised to you".

Christians loved genociding non-christians in the early days.

Every German soldier's belt buckle had the imprint "Gott mit uns" throughout World War 2 ("God is with us"). Doing whatever your leader feels needs doing becomes a lot easier when you've got permission from magical cloud daddy.

If Jesus Christ came back today
Like you threatened he will
Which poor group of people
Do you think that he would kill?
Who would Jesus choose to starve
If you gave him the chance?
And if there was a genocide
Would he take a neutral stance?

Who would Jesus bomb?
Tell me, who would Jesus bomb?
Would it be kids in Palestine
Or how 'bout Vietnam?
Would Jesus bomb the atheists
The Muslims, or the Jews?
I want you to ask yourself
"Well, what would Jesus do?"

Anyone else notice that a lot of EuroAmerican imperialist elements are being constructed as uniquely American within the past couple years?

Eh... A might makes right worldview automatically leads to genocide. It doesn't matter who is looking at it or what else they believed before.

That’s how Christianity has always worked.
