What the hell? Orcs and half orcs are NOT HUMAN that is the entire point.

Well, I remember when some people on twitter threw an hissy fit claiming that "goblins in Hogwarts Legacy were antisemitic because they resembled jews", which is probably a parallel the devs themselves never even attempted and some of the most hilariously unintentionally (?) racist things I've ever heard.

Totally understandable!
And I can certainly see hints in BG3 as well.

For example, why are all dwarves short?
After all, a person's race is not defined by their gender or physical features!
Just to assume such a thing is incredibly racist!
People who think otherwise are worse than Hitler!

Let's gather a woke mob and demand the option to create 2 meter tall dwarves!
