I think Ms d'Abbadie knows from thinkers like Fanon, Seghor and her own
experience (somehow) of how the answers to this are answered:
"He presents the Hereros as erotically enjoying their destruction &
subjugation—and compares black skin and shit."
For the above, see the below:
"As an intellectual <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intellectualism>, Fanon
was a political radical <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_radicalism>
, Pan-Africanist <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pan-Africanism>, and Marxist
humanist <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marxist_humanism> concerned with
the psychopathology <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychopathology> of
colonization <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colonization>,[2]
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franz_Fanon#cite_note-2> and the human,
social, and cultural consequences of decolonization
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decolonization>.[3]
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franz_Fanon#cite_note-3>[4]
