What 19th-Century racists (i.e. most white people) would have recognized as the “Santo Domingo” syndrome (after the 1791 slave rebellion in what is now Haiti); where the only alternative to race-based chattel slavery and denial of human rights is a violent, bloody slaughter of innocents.

Updated, of course, for “welfare checks” and better guns, but still the same-old- same-old….
