Anyone got the stats on that?
No stats as such - but I'm pretty sure that the Crusades, the Abigensian massacres, the Inquisition, The Thirty Years War, The Jacobin Terror, Stalinism, Maoism and the Khomenist brand of Islam were motivated by a desire to impose a particular view of society and morality on those who resisted it, rather than a desire to write fan-fic where Avon gets hurt and Vila gives him a cuddle.
Just an educated guess. (And as always MHO)
