Wonder how countries sort out hard political questions

Well, sometimes when the hard political question is "Should we kill all of these people in our outgroups?" the answer is violence. Not always. Sometimes people just die in mass.

Sometimes people just die in mass.

"En masse" -- it's borrowed from French. "In mass" means you're either talking about a Catholic church service or Massachusetts.

What does "en masse" translate to when translated to English?
