    Reminds me of a satirical song in my country that goes “I like black women! I’m not racist!”

    Ulfric Stormcloak is literally Trump

    Skyrim belongs to the Nords

    Claims to be a strong warrior but is actually a coward

    Stole the election

    Secretly a Thalmor agent

    Anyway the Stormcloaks are all racist trash. And the Empire kinda doesn’t give a shit about Talos worship and is just playing along until they can out-breed the Dominion and win the next war. But the Stormcloaks brought Thalmor heat down on Skyrim and caused Heimskr to be jailed. They’re so hyped up on righteous fury, they can’t work together with the liberals to take down the fascists, and as a result it’s just causing more harm to the persecuted.

    …remind you of anyone on this website?

        He doesn’t know he’s a Thalmor agent, he was brainwashed with selective disinformation.

        As long as the civil war proceeds in its current indecisive fashion, we should remain hands-off. The incident at Helgen is an example where an exception had to be made - obviously Ulfric’s death would have dramatically increased the chance of an Imperial victory and thus harmed our overall position in Skyrim.

          … A Stormcloak victory is also to be avoided, however, so even indirect aid to the Stormcloaks must be carefully managed.

          Regardless of the chosen side, if the dragonborn completes the civil war questline, it’s bad for the thalmor. The only losing move is not to play. Join the civil war! Nothing ever happens unless the protagonist is the one who does it. The only way the thalmor’s stalemate can be maintained is if the dragonborn does NOT intervene.

    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:
