I mean, while it is questionable in a way, comparing breaking and raping normal dragons and subjugating Protodrakes is a completely different story, because Protodrakes are not as intelligent or sentient as the actual dragonflights or even Stormdrakes.
What's next, you gonna chastise the trolls for taming raptors?
Sure it is not. But in no way has the current Horde denounced any of the attrocities committed by the WC1 Horde. They have denounced the demonic influence but they celebrate monstrous people who committed every war crime in existence. They celebrate Grom and Orgrim in particular and Orgrim was the one who gave Zuluhed approval for what he did in Grim Batol and by the Chronicle "No one was more pleased" than him for the Dragonmaw's success.
Again I am not saying this should mean Alexstrasza should roast every orc she sees. She apparently has the strength to work through the trauma and good for her, that's empowering. Forgiveness is farthest from forgeting.

The Nether dragons are certainly intelligent. As are Black Dragons (they enslave some in Twilight Higlands).
And really are we discussing the Horde's attitude towards slavery of intelligent creatures? They still do it broadly and it is an accepted part of at least orc society.

Zaela took over the clan from Mor'ghor in Cataclysm and Mor'ghor WAS the one enslaving the Nether flight together with Zuluhed. It's the same clan and the same people just with a couple changes of leadership. She did not oppose Mor'ghor on principle, she opposed him because she thought they had a better chance with the Horde.
And again, if people actually bother to read my posts, firstly Alex can come to terms with what happened and still invite the Horde because she needs their strength there and secondly, while it is clearly not as problematic as committing the crimes yourself, if you celebrate your forefathers who committed such crimes, you are clearly accepting their actions.
I hope we get a Dragonmaw "redemption" story based on the one short story where the Dragonmaw orc hatches a cloud serpent
Orcs in WoW are also evil and vile creatures. Look at the Burning of Teldrassil which, by the way, was not a big problem for any Horde member except Saurfang. Even Baine continued to shill for the Lich Queen until the Lich Queen decided to mind-control Derek Proudmoore.
Waging war on your neighbours, slaughtering an entire kingdom with fire, remaining loyal to the perpetuator of such an act, how would you define such people?

He tried to argue that Void elves are comparable to irl junkies, even though Void elves got that power accidentally and, anyway, that power makes them supernatural beings who wield Cosmic energy which also allows for teleportation. This, frankly, seems more useful than any drug could ever be.
Do you have information on whether or not the new UI informs you of your combat effects adequately?
It is quite a lot different when you're dealing with a "warrior culture" for which "war is a way of life" and in which "there are no civilians" and which have periodically only been appeased by getting involved in murderous wars. As lastly confirmed by Sylvanas easily manipulating the Orcs want for conflict to start the war.
Anyone have “more leaked images” on their Bingo card for today?
Eh the difference very much is that Germans do acknowledge what they did. Very much so. The actions of your forefathers do not define you but if they were horrible you are still expected to condemn them instead of celebrating them.
What is your argument even? Do you have one? I made a clear case about the orcs. They celebrate the memories of past warchiefs whose actions were monstrous. They don't just happen to be from the same nation. We hate modern Nazis even though modern Nazis have not committed any genocide because they embrace the ideology that caused it. The orcs do the same. And actually have caused a genocide as well with the modern Horde so really again, what is your argument???
Honestly I am not sure what to think about whoever leaked those during the NDA. On one hand the right thing would be for them to be found and at the very least banned from any future Blizzard (or even MS) press event (if not held in breach which may include fines or more). On the other hand, maybe Blizzard wanted things leaked to keep the hype up? And it's not like the leaker profited from the leak since they did not get any traffic from it. Still feels unfair to all the people who also have access to this information and are respecting their contracts.
So no, I don't want more leaked images because that may well mean that Blizzard will be more constrained in future press events and we end up getting less information instead.
If the Germans leading party still called itself the nationalist socialist, still used Nazi imagery and idealised Nazi war criminals.
Yes I think it would be fine if Jewish , queer, Slavs and Romai peoples didn't want to deal with Germans.
The Horde still calls itself the Horde, uses the same imagery and venerates horde leaders of the Second War....
