Everyone here bashes many who proclaim loyalty to Sylvanas and accuses them all of being fanboys and such, stating that blind loyalty is not honorable.
But do you know who else was blindly loyal to a warchief? Nazgrim. You know, the orc everyone liked and loathed having to kill? After all that Garrosh had done, he stayed loyal to Garrosh to the bitter end and people praised him for it.
But now we have people bashing and attacking those who are doing just that, calling them traitors and fanboys, all because they don’t share a similar mindset.

Is it possible for Nazgrim the loyal and Saurfang the revolutionary to both have been “honorable” at the same time?
What does “honor” even mean in this context?

I dont think that is the lesson you should have picked up from Nazgrim. I’d also point out there are just as many who consider Nazgrim a fool for continuing to follow Garrosh.
Nazgrim, despite his loyalty, still knew what Garrosh was. That’s why he was satisfied to die at the hands of the Horde players, content to let them move forward and create a better Horde than the one they currently had.
The Sylvanas loyalists I see getting attacked aren’t comparable to Nazgrim, they’re not reluctant soldiers who continue to fight because they feel duty-bound to do so. They’re the “YES DARK LADY BAE KILL ALL ALLIANCE SCUM HURR HURR” types.

Nazgrim wasn’t blindly loyal to the Warchief, Garrosh Hellscream. As Levinar stated, he knew exactly what Garrosh was about, and he knew that Garrosh was wrong. Nazgrim chose to honor his Blood Oath, and his death was one he could be proud of on two levels.
The first is obvious; his oath had been satisfied. He died with honor.
The second was tragic; he died to the rebellion he knew the Horde needed, and so his death was for the Horde.

There’s nothing wrong with killing alliance. If you are horde it’s the right thing to do. Its not right for a leader (Baine) to be killing soldiers loyal to the faction he’s supposed to represent. As a horde leader Baine is responsible for all soldiers of the horde regardless of race.
i wonder if Vol’jin, Lor’themar, and Sylvanas killed any loyal horde soldiers during the siege of Orgrimmar?
