User blog comment:Harold Burned-Mane/The Truth about Ulfric Stormcloak/@comment-26693897-20151203190018

I want to discuss some things:

1) About Ulfric being racist

I don’t think Ulfric is racist because I believe racism comes from intent and he doesn’t intend to harm non-Nords, but he's very nationalistic and that is dangerously too close to racism.

2) About Brunwulf and the Khajiit Caravans

Ulfric doesn't rule Falkreath,  Siddgeir does and he is not a shiny example of a Jarl. But what if these Khajiits were attacked in Eastmarch? What would Ulfric do? I bet he would do nothing since he doesn't lift a finger to even to catch a serial killer inside his own city. I know he is preoccupied by the civil war, but if that's the problem why has he not appointed someone to look after his hold so he can focus on just the war? Also Brunwulf calls you a cat or lizard if you tell him that you are "Skyrim belongs to the Nord" type. Brunwulf advocates a more tolerant policy towards minorities. He hates racism and he verbally chastises you if you seem bigotted in the dialogue. He expresses how much he hates the narrowminded "Skyrim is for the Nords" policy that the Stormcloaks espouse.

3) Ulfric as a Thalmor agent

I want to get the line "A Stormcloak victory is also to be avoided, however, so even indirect aid to the Stormcloaks must be carefully managed." The Thalmor are USING the Stormcloaks! This is very clear in the line "Ulfric's death would have dramatically increased the chance of an Imperial victory and thus harmed our overall position in Skyrim". If the Thalmor are working with the Empire, why would an imperial victory in Skyrim be a hindrance to them? I do not think that Ulfric is a Thalmor agent, but, rather, that he is a tool in their dissolution of mankind. Ulfric is distracting and shrinking the Empire. Although he is not directly working for the Thalmor, he is ultimately becoming a useful playing piece in their conquest. Ulfric is pretty much handing the Empire on a silver platter to the Thalmor.
