It is interesting how western countries want white men dead and gone, but then when they leave demand they come back to die for the country... like a bipolar girlfriend.
I am not aware that any plantation owner wanted the eradication of negroes, though. On the contrary, they wanted them to multiply if only because the erstwhile source had been cut off.
You right, it was just the best hyperbole I could think of to demonstrate "actively tries to destroy you while still needing your slavery" in a historical sense people would get.

Even the most racist of plantation owner still wanted the negro to pick his cotton while also calling for his eradication.
