I'm not sure they view the Stormcloaks as being wrong so much as manipulated, which is... worse?
Right? It's suppose to be one of these 'no right answer' dilemmas, which is just laughable when I'm playing as a Dunmer, the oppressed-to-be-cleansed population in this system and I can *join*the*Stormcloaks* - presumably to get murdered last?

RIGHT??? I was a Nord my first game and finished with the Stormcloaks. Started the next game as a Khajit and turned the recruiting meeting into a bloodbath.

The thing is, Bethesda used to be good at this sort of complex colonial narratives. Morrowind does this really well - imperial power is ambiguous; local authorities are too. It helps that all player characters, even Dunmer, are scorned as 'outlanders' so you are never an insider
