how well did SE represent your cultures in dawntrail?

Yeah, not to mention we're systematically wiping out their way of life with Regulators. First regular souls, now with the Arcadia getting rid of beast souls. Let not forget wiping out Living Memory without any real remorse, how it was filled with nothing but white folk and few Duskwights with the lightest skin possible. If Cahciua had just told us about Living Memory, how it works, ect. We could have went up to Sphene, (before she went full Computer Program and would actually converse with us), and proposed other possible solutions to the problem. Though NOPE, she just kept her mouth shut about where she was and what was going on. The writers for SOME REASON decided "Let's have Cahciua deny critical, need to know information that could enable us to possibly help cause... reasons." She was selfish cause she, "didn't want to be tied to one place", so she wanted Living Memory shut down. That way she "could be free" and decided "The rest of those in Living Memory, yeah, I couldn't care less if they fade with me. I want out." Or as so many others EMPHATICALLY pointed out, she didn't consider them actually alive or worth saving. "Feel bad for them sure, but it's not worth even trying." Like she's the only voice in Living Memory that matters.

I feel professionally represented as the "Evil White Race" that must be systematically destroyed, my culture dismantled, everyone is not only OK with it, but cheers and sings songs about my downfall. Leaving those inside the dome with little recourse than to abandon everything and assimilate.

We sure were lucky that a group of people willing to let a machine delete parts of their memories if it meant decreasing their chance of death was mostly okay with being wiped from existence. Imagine if they attempted to stop us. Imagine crying kids begging not to be deleted. Yep, sure are lucky the only people who spoke on it were the parents of the protagonists and they all insisted it be shut down, deeming it unnatural and immoral though the only way to end up there is to die with a regulator on. Funny that.

Personally, I would have put security on the thing keeping thousands of people alive (from their perspective) before the ziplines. But hey, this was the super advanced society that got conquered by a lizard with a spear. So I guess it's safe to assume they are morons.

Also, thank goodness no character lectured me for 40 straight hours on the importance of respecting culture and then told the leader of the first culture she met that did something she found distasteful that she should make her people stop. I mean if that had happened, my brain might have exploded from the hypocrisy.
