The key thing to note is that even if some asshole reads between the lines and kills a bunch of people the folks who use this type of rhetoric to make money or consolidate political power will always just fall back on the "it's not my fault that crazy people take me seriously".

This type of rhetoric and climate don't create a sufficient condition for atrocities like Bosnia or Rwanda to occur, but they are a necessary condition.
