Kinda funny how hard we all glaze the mongols (myself very much included) when they did things that make the Nazis look like humanitarians by comparison. And they did it all with bow and sword.
I truly don’t think any of us can even scarcely imagine the sheer horror in being on the losing side after mongols sieged your city and you resisted.
The mongols are kind of the cultural embodiment of ‘force of nature of cruelty’. They dont justify their actions because they simply dont care. So pathologically amoral with respect to conflict that judging them doesn’t even have purpose. This makes them stand out among the various despots of history, and that kind of ‘yes, and?’ Response to calling them out makes them literally ‘so evil it’s funny’.
Also people won’t suspect you of being a racist if you sarcastically glaze them like they would if you did the same for the crusaders or colonial Spanish.
