A shame the famous Mongolian tolerance did not extend to unconquered peoples, any of whom would balk at this depiction.

They start tolerating your religion AFTER they conquer you and you admit that Mongolians are a better race than you.

Right, like a capybara

You don't conquer half of Asia by being nice. Well, not just by being nice.

No, not really.

was genghis khan unique?

Honestly, yes, in that he was probably one of the least aggressive of the Mongol Khans, ironically. He vored the entire Khwarizmi Empire, though, and that counts for a lot.

There are roughly 5,652 adjectives I would use to describe the Mongols before ever reaching the word "Chill"

Religiously chill. In other ways, not so much. XD
