There may be racist remarks here or there, but you don't need to take it as far as some people and treat it like the USA in the 1920's or something like Warhammer.
I remember people bringing up this point back in WoW as well. Yet very few people actually do that...and Hydaelyn is established - repeatedly - as being a pretty grim and dark place to live. I doubt I need to go into the how and why (partly to avoid spoilers and mostly because anybody who owns the game can see for themselves fairly easily).
Who are these 'some people', though? Can we have examples? There's no need to name any particular individuals directly, of course, though I'd love to be able to wrap my head around all this!
