LOL get off, I used racism as a bullet point on the problems Garleans have, that's the point them being racists is part of the reason there cool with genocide, it's another reason reform is the only logical way we could ever be REAL allies with them.

It's not about being "morally exercised" or whatever drivel you just tried to spew, it's that after everything Garlemald has done, becoming allies with them longterm in there current state would be so actively OOC for so many of there allies that it would break the story. Garlemald getting away with everything they've done and staying the same with a slap on the wrist would be garbage White Washing to the extreme.

The fact that some people are so eager to excuse them strikes me as weird because the logical consequences of everything they've done would be they get wiped out or reform to are standards as an apology for all the genocide and droping fucking moons on where we live.

Moral grayness is great, but not when it bends the narrative to actively forgive and forget things that should be remembered.
