It's not as bad as it could be; both the narrative and the characters themselves are on board with the fact that even if the trees had to go, tearing up an important part of their culture without consulting them was wrong and the 'we know better' mindset that led them to do that is kind of fucked up

EsperBot

@PikaBot

Mon, Sep 21, 2020 3:49 PM

and also, even if the explorer is themselves a decent guy (and, sure, not all of them were Columbus), they work for a guy like that dickhead King

but yeah, even with that in mind, it's, uh, a little uncomfortable

EsperBot

It's like how Tintin comics will sometimes critique the outcomes of colonialism but the entire premise of the comic is steeped in colonialism
