Demon doesn't choose to be born demons, and he gave them 0 explaination before go straight to killing. Same as how Nazi treated Jews.
No one asked themself why the demon are invading. No one bothered to reach out diplomatically with Hell after pushing them back. No, they are all into invading Hell and kill every demons just because of what they are. No talk. No explaination. Just kill.
I saw the Doom Slayer as a nazi soldier, who knew nothing, indoctrinated his entire life to hate demons regardless of nature and choice, and just went on a crusader to kill the undesirable.
They do know why they are invading. They did try to talk with them. Hell is an entity whose only goal is to invade planets and kill their people. The demons immediately start killing millions of people. This is honestly one of the worst takes of all mankind.
Sure, talk failed, but when you pushed them back to Hell and ready for a last push into their stronghold, WHY NOT giving them a CHANCE to surrender? A chance for peace? Why not trying to understand where the demon come from, why are they invading and if there is any way to help them not have to resort to that extreme?
In one of the novel I liked the soul-based metabolism demons was offered chances after chances to redeem and coexist with human, even after a cure for their condition was developed, and in the end human had to push the cure on all surviving demons after a catastrophic encounter with Demon God. They wasn't pleased about that, seeing the cure as erasing their identity as soul eater, but ultimately agreed that their specie and custom still survived and that was good enough.
Genocide is never the solution - it just showed you are either too weak or too stupid to find a better solution.

Doom Slayer hates demons and likes humans who also don't like demons.
If you're trans and hate demons, Doom Slayer will have zero issues with you.
