The slur was savages
Pretty mild and not worth the headline compared to the rest of the comment
Mild enough that it should have been in the headline. Not mild enough that there shouldn't be outrage at it.
Nah, in this "modern" time using the term savages is a way to dehumanized them, and push a view point that the white man helped them...when clearly that is not the case.
Did you read the rest of the comments?
She was straight up dehumanizing, the term doesn’t matter if they are straight up saying everything it represents
I read it, but that term alone is enough, even without doubling down. She is just garbage
My view is she could replace it with whatever preferred term and it wouldn’t be any less offensive so it’s worse than just saying a slur
Fair
