just saw someone called ___ a racist, who "ustified the genocide of taurens by the alliance".
"Genocide":
Ah yes, our assault on the Horde town of Taurajo. I struggled with the implications of the decision. Taurajo was admittedly what you might call a 'soft target,' primarily a hunters' camp. Still, it had been used to recruit, equip, and train Horde infantry for many years. When our scouts reported that Taurajo's most dangerous units were out on the hunt, we had to act quickly. Gossip We sacked the town? I would prefer not to use the term 'sacked,' but yes, the attack went off flawlessly. We removed Taurajo from the equation, confiscated its arms, and destroyed its smithing facilities. The assault gave our forces considerable breathing room and knocked the enemy off balance. Nonetheless, during the assault, I instructed my men to leave a gap open in our lines… Gossip Why did you do that? Taurajo had a significant civilian population. I wanted to ensure that they could escape the fighting, and many did, finding refuge in the north. There are some, even in Alliance High Command, who argued that I let an opportunity slip away. That I should've taken hostages. But I don't see the value in those sort of terror-tactics. Hear me out,: I want this war to end someday. It won't ever stop if we butcher or imprison civilians. I just pray that there are those on the other side who see things as I do.
“They took down a military target. And their general refused to slaughter civilians. He could have given the order to massacre everyone. But he didn’t.” - Baine, leader of Taurens.
While the horde gleefully terrorizes civilians in Ashenvale, Alliance are sent to kill their own fraction for daring to take a few spoils of war. The only general in this war that shows mercy is forever tagged a butcher, and had his body dragged through the dirt.
Poor horde started the terrible war, but hey, how dare the alliance to answer:
Manual: Under Garrosh's command, the Horde belligerence toward the Alliance is growing. Most recently the headstrong new warchief led his forces on a rampage through neighboring Ashenvale, claiming much of what was once night elf land. King Varian Wrynn has not backed down from Garrosh's aggression, nor has the rest of the Alliance. Offensives into the Southern Barrens have secured territory once belonging to the Horde for Varian and his allies, who are also working to retake portions of Ashenvale. With tensions rising, both factions are on the brink of all-out warfare. Quest: You're in Hellscream's army now, <name>, and in Hellscream's army we kick butt and take names. Gone are the days of our people starving in the streets of Orgrimmar as we sign treaties with elves. We take what we need now. Kalimdor belongs to the Horde! The Alliance attempts to stop our expansion every chance they get. Unsatisfied with owning most of the Eastern Kingdoms, those pig-lickers want it all!
The Hordies showed how they treat their enemies, the ones who showed mercy and compassion. The Horde has completely devalued the understanding of the word “honor”.
Perhaps it's time for someone to stop inventing an alternative lore and face the truth, the horde, with a rare exception, is a solid bunch of killers.
