Blizz is trying to whitewash Jaina with historical revisionism

i mean as horde characters we were wiping out the alliance en masse throughout numerous expansions yet they dont care either :man_shrugging: anduin, jaina, alleria etc dont even flinch when talking to us now after we spent all of bfa and various other expansions destroying the alliance lol. we literally helped burn down teldrassil too LMAO

the player character has committed unspeakable acts against basically every race in the game yet no one cares - ultimately its a game based around fighting and killing each other and so for the story to work in any real way we have to suspend belief around this

Because those who were responsible for their suffering actually been punished.

everyone apart from garrosh seem fine :man_shrugging: even sylvanas is just chilling in the maw cause tyrande was angry boots. anduin is not even blinking chatting with us hordies despite the fact that throughout the last 40 years we have been regularly obliterating humans xD

My dude the whole Horde leadership was obliterated twice. Unless you want to delete Orgrimmar too it is impossible to make the Horde suffere even harder like it did during bfa and mop.

Jaina did all of us a favor since you Blood Elves multiply like roaches. We’re due for another purge.

My preacher always used this kind of thinking smugly, as if putting someone in their place.

Ridiculous.

There is a little bit of the archetypical hypocritical megachurch preacher in the Draenei dna, yeah.

“We’re super good, we’re super holy, we’re also going to get a lot of randoms killed by demons as decoys so we can escape and not warn or help a single one of them”

Desert rats showing envy.

Jaina didn’t go far enough.

She only imprisoned the belves who were complicit in two thefts of magical WMDs. It was the Silver Covenant that actually drew blood, under Vereesa who was looking for vengeance for Rhonin’s death.

She should’ve just teleported them all out of Dalaran’s city limits-- out into the open sky. Give people like Erevien a real reason to hate her, since apparently people are going to treat her like she attempted genocide anyway.

She was talked down, but the initial intent was there.
Sunreaver isn’t an ethnicity to my knowledge. Blood elves who weren’t Sunreavers but part of the Kirin Tor were unaffected.

No, all belves were affected and a pogrom is a purge of either an ethnic minority of pollitical group, so the term still applies

She ordered an ethnic cleansing, allowed Varain to invade the Barrens and tried to drown Orgrimmar in a tidal wave. We have more enough reasons to hate her already and if Blizzard wasn’t so biased for the alliance she would have died by now but consequences only exist for Horde leaders.

She targeted everyone in Dalaran that was allied to the Horde in some way. Not just the elves of the Sunreavers.

Well, technically she was talked down from trying a third time. The first two times she did hit the genocide button and launched the wave that would’ve destroyed Orgrimmar but Thrall was able to just barely stop them.

Really is kinda nuts that they never actually did a resolution to the fact that Jaina enslaved and tortured a massive amount of sentient elementals, had an internal monologue about loving the idea of killing kids, and was about to kill the hero who just literally kept the world together while she was sending out convict battalions to kill villagers.

“oh but she backed down after failing twice when her boyfriend showed up” is not a mitigating factor for her lack of morality any more than “oh but she saw a sad vore eel” is a mitigating factor for what Sylvanas did.

Evil thoughts aren’t really a crime.

We even had Thrall go trough all his anger against humans in one questline as well.

Enslaving elementals though it is a bit more complicated, but again, not something any society of azeroth ever thought in punishing and many do it as part of their day to day lives.
