The fucking blatant "those savages would kill you in an instant you bleeding heart cuckold fool" rhetoric is like something out of the turner diaries

It's older than that. The classical liberals all believed this shit. In fact John locke, Stuart Mills, Voltaire etc were all racist as shit and owned shares in the British East India Company or outright owned people. Their refrain in India was protecting the women from the "savages" there. Probably the same "reasons" they used for colonizing Africa, China, Southeast Asia, etc... none of this is new.
