Yes, I'm aware of the point of the blog, I was just arguing with you because you seemed to be in the mindset that Elves were the problem and not their current ruling government or their culture.

I'm aware, I'm also of the mindset that stereotypes exist for a reason, but at the same time one shouldn't judge a person solely by their ethnic origins, I apply the same mindset to the Elder Scrolls, as the same thing happens. But is the stereotype you have about Dunmer and Altmer true? I don't see it, as most Altmer and Dunmer I run into don't have anything like that. So I would say it's more of a nature vs. nurture issue, the Altmer's culture is that they're superior to man in every way, so the ones we encounter with this mindset are from their homeland, where their culture is most prevalent.

I don't think what the Thalmor did was excusable, regardless of what the Blades did, and I don't remember where, I just remember hearing her say that, maybe I was wrong. Still, that kind of indiscriminate killing shows a narrow-minded view.
