User blog comment:Unrulyruby100/See Molotov. See Molotov read too much into prejudice in the game./@comment-161.253.97.183-20121202225748/@comment-27202257-20121203224236

I dunno man--a lot of the big problems in the game came about as a result of disregard for others' humanity. So while there are definitely more messed up things in the game, I'd say this and the rampant classism we see are both symptoms of Dunwall's culture, as well as causes of many different, horrible calamities.

(Even from the beginning, when Jessamine sends Corvo to ask for aid and the other nations deny him: how far would out of your way would you go to help save a city when you think everyone there is a bunch of racist, oppressive pricks?)
