Oh please. As I have said countless times before on this blog, the Dunmer are naturally xenephobic, if a Nord came into their lands they would do much worse than what is being done to them now. They're lucky they even have homes in Skyrim.

'If you're not with us you're against us'? I'm pretty sure the Empire is the same in that respect, the only difference is Ulfric has no time for sycophants.

Most people in Windhelm don't actually mind the Dunmer, I can only think of two people in the city who I can actually describe as racist (Rollf Stone-Fist and Argenor Once-Honoured), the Dunmer probably wouldn't leave the slum if the city did even have space for extra housing. I don't hate the Dunmer, but they are getting a taste of their own medecine.

As for the Argonians, they need to earn trust. I'm sure that in real life when a group of people come from far away it would take time for them to grow into the community.

Just because Brunwulf said that he rushed to the aid of Nord settlements and leaves everyone else to burn, does that mean it's true? After all, we know Brunwulf is an Imperial supporter and will try to sway everyone else. How many foreign races-only settlements have you seen in Skyrim? I can only immediately think of the Orcs and the Forsworn, and they seem fine by themselves. Those other people aren't Ulfric's concern. He represents the Nords and the people of his hold, no one else.
