Everyone in Tamriel is racist

People say the Stormcloacks are racist but I think the whole of Skyrim is racist. I mean even Imperial cities won't let those kahjit traders in.
Also the Dunmer like to play victim now but they used to be the biggest racists of them all. Anyone who's played TES3 knows this. There is even a book in Skyrim somewhere that mentions that humans in Morrowind were considered to be on the same level as animals.

Racism is a natural thing. People always used to be racist. Now things are a bit different, but you can't say the same about 50 years ago and before that.

I just wish some of the NPC's that said racists things to my character were not flagged 'essential.' I would show them!! Oh wait.. I can show them over and over again. Slowly.

My grandpa is one of the more racist people I know. Should I pay for his racism?

But yeah, I hate IRL racism but in the game it's a nice touch. It does irk me when someone makes a snide comment but it's immersive.

What's with this obsession with racism in TES games all of a sudden? Threads about it pop up almost every day. TES has always been racist, it's part of the lore.

The setting is a faux Medieval era. I think the khajiit in Skyrim have the role of the gypsies of medieval Europe.

Its more realistic to see prejudice amongst the races. Its a story-element though and is not condoning racism or anything.

I love immersing myself in a game with no political correctness...

Its what I hate about real life, how brainwashed people are by the government and media to believe their idealogy of what is right and wrong nowadays.

Racism, I could not care less, doesn't bother or affect me in the slightest.
