The planning and execution of the genocide, before people actually started dying.
So it’s not celebrating all the people dying, but the successful plan of convincing the ones they were about to kill they were actually a good, caring and giving person while in fact they just future-killed them by giving them a fatal disease. “Those were my ancestors! We should honor them by slaughtering loads of turkeys to show we’re capable of doing the same.”
