From what I read 黃帝's tribe has only expelled 蚩尤's tribe at the end (which is a suspected part of my ancestry).
But, hey, if 黃帝 did order to murder everyone on the land, I will condemned him too.
BUT he is not God, he is not all knowing. He may not know what he is doing. He is not all powerful and may have very few option opened to him. He do not have hindsight either. So I would say he is condemned but most likely excused for what he did. You know, if a baby put his hand into the electical outlet, it is not called 'suicide'.
Do we need to continue? I also condemn Chun's first empire for his murderous campaign. I also condemn Guan Yu's flood-the-city campaign in his later year. BUT they are all limited in intelligence (brain power, or just pure information), power. It will at least excuse part of their sick behaviour.
So what do you say, are you prepare to condemn God?
---------------
From what I understand of the time, "killing everyone in the tribe" is not a common practise in the area. This tactic only begin at the warring states period. Up to the Spring-Autumn period, the common mode is to conquer a city, not to murder everyone in it.
