No need to be pedantic. That definition is the historical one, and most people today think of it as utter destruction.

"Most people today" is a terrible justifier for anything. Deci means ten in Spanish and Italian at least.

To decimate, while it refers to a tenth of a group, it also means utter destruction. At least that's what the Merriam Webster says.

Looking up a word is good. Looking up its epistemology is better. Not to mention it's religious and man made. Just not the right word.

I guess you mean etymology. Epistemology is just not the right word.

This is unacceptable, why isn’t the POTUS & FEMA doing more? Trump is more worried about deflecting from his kids using personal email.

Yeah but that's not Trumps priority right now. Dividing America and starting WW3 is where it's at!
