I feel like that this is the true route, despite that the ACTUAL true route is pacifist. But think about it, you learn most of the lore through Genocide, and you get to meet a very important character through Genocide. You even get rewarded through Genocide, despite Undertale's message, but you do get stronger and richer, though the theme is the opposite of the developer's view. Despite the fact that the developer left you the fact to kill everyone. And this is an RPG, so while technically speaking, you have to kill everyone to get stronger to avoid death, but the developer had fixed that with the skill-based bullet hell system. No, I'm not gonna go on and say that the Genocide route is the true canonical route, as it is easily debunkable from everything to the theme of the game to the developer saying it himself, but I am saying that this is still true to heart of RPGs, as the game discourages killing, despite it being an RPG, and letting you have the option to kill.
