    Doesn’t the “Dragon-born” one implying DOMINION over all of the other races?

    The former just implies homogeneity. Hard to be racists if you only ever meet one race. (have no knowledge of the first game)

    Now, if we want to talk about truly racist gaming, look no further than Nintendo’s Fascist simulator:

      Being exposed to only one race actually is a great way to create racism. Lack of exposure leads to a lack of understanding, and a lack of understanding often leads to fear.

      I’d imagine wealth and class play a big part in it because of the ways wealth plays into education, cultural exposure, etc, and the ways wealth affects their relationship with such things. Like how wealthy people tend to travel more, and thus get exposed to different races and cultures which helps tolerance of such things, but their relationship with all of it is deeply consumerist. Its still racism, but in a more subtle way. Race and other cultures is a commodity to them, either for entertainment or social and cultural capital
