You're not "reclaiming" the term here either. Update the style guide or whatever to reflect that savage, when used as a noun, is really fucking racist and ignorant.
Saying that someone is *a savage* is racist and historically insensitive. Discourse around "savage" indigenous peoples has been used to justify the mass genocide of millions at the hands of colonialists in North America. How is this not on your radar, BuzzFeed????
