Am I the only one here who doesn't see the Noble savage trope to be bad? Can you explain to me, why it's bad? Are homesteaders who don't want to live in society, and want to live off the land noble savages? Were the Celts also disgusting noble savages to the civilized Romains?
Celts built towns and villages, they were not savages.

Because the Noble Savage is a myth, lies. It would make you no better than those that would deny the existence of races.
Of course, there's nothing wrong with admiration or desire for a primitive and simple way of life like what Ted desired in his scathing critique of modernised oversocialised industrial society or what the Amish have.
Levi Butler
Were the aztec savages then?
Eli Cook
Amish are not savages, they are luddites.
Jace Brooks
They were not in my opinion. The native indians, the niggers and the aborigines are savages since they build villages at most, never a walled fief.
Isaac Wilson
Celts didnt scalp women or rape babies, they also didnt have concepts of total warfare like the Indjuns did
The Germans were even greater savages, but even more noble, they killed faggots on sight and would not abide a woman to be a whore
Also Celts and Germans were the genetic basis of some of the greatest empires that ever lived on Earth (British, French, Germans, Spaniards)
Indjuns were the basis of……nothing. Absolutely nothing.
Aztecs and Mayans were much more advanced and slightly more noble if you ignore the flaying of virgins and sacrifice of children, but then we;re getting away from your built-up idea of noble savages.
Josiah Bell
The "noble savage" didn't live like that because he was avoiding society. He did it because he was a nigger with no idea how to build anything more complicated than piling mud on sticks.
Hunter Bailey
Vikings were not noble savages either. They had walled fiefs and steel weapons.

the native americans had just gone through a great plague when we really started to get to know them, we truly saw them at their worst if it were possible I would like to give them a second chance at proving themselves to the world because of that, but unfortunately it is not
