In the 1700s Liberals condemned Kings for inciting slave revolts & Injuns against free White colonists, their judges were attacked for leniency wrt petty criminals, who should be hanged, action was demanded against poor mutal aid societies, regarded as conspiracies v. the public.

Mandeville, Locke, Sidney spoke of poors in terms that a 90s Klansman wouldn’t apply to blacks. Sieyès called them “bipedal tools” not “capable of entering society.” Franklin wrote to a doctor that he was committing a crime against Providence by saving “useless” (dysgenic) lives.
