Okay I think in the interests of Red Queen’s sanity we should refrain from utilizing further real world examples and try to discuss how Larian can makes its writing more subtle.
I don't think they can. Any indication that the fears and concerns of the Baldurans about the refugees are even just in part justified and Larian would be crucified on social and actual media.
Unfortunately, I agree with this.
Which is to say that I think art is at a low point in the world today. Being constrained in this manner is not good for storytelling. Writers are beholden to "social and actual media."
