Eradicative and status-maintaining violence are fundamentally different

Evidence

This phenomenon of lumping together the enemies of the Catholic faith should not be exaggerated. It was one thing to be forced to listen to a Dominican sermon in one’s Barcelona mosque or synagogue, something else entirely to be massacred as a Cathar by the Albigensian crusaders. The same authors who associated Jews, Muslims, and heretics as the devil’s minions could distinguish their different social and legal statuses. There is a fundamental distinction between violence aimed at the eradication of a deviant group (the Cathar heretics) and coercion aimed at enforcing and maintaining the inferior social status of accepted groups (such as Jews and Muslims). — John V. Tolan, Saracens, 1364 (#corroborates, via linked claim)
