her campaign , had strong connections to the African-American community , voiced support for Black Lives Matter , and generally presented an inclusive and welcoming vision of the United States as a place of racial and gender diversity . In opposition to these inclusive models of leadership , Garrosh Hellscream in Patch 5.4 of World of Warcraft refers to “ pitiful ” allied races as inferior . His conflicts with allied races lead to a fracturing of the Horde and reformation of a racially pure “ true Horde ” he describes as “ the Orcish Horde , the True Horde ” which uses “ anger , hatred , and fear ” as tools of war ; after Garrosh is deposed , the Horde returns to its prior racial diversity . This attitude towards “ pitiful ” inferior races has parallels to Trump ’ s descriptions of Mexican immigrants “ bringing drugs . They ’ re bringing crime . They ’ re rapists ,” as well as his anti-Islamic policies .
One should note , though , that members of both Horde and Alliance have some legitimate reasons to be concerned about the undead . The Forsaken , as is the case with real world marginalized movements such as the Palestine Liberation Organization or the Irish Republican Army , resorted to terrorism . In particular , they are experts in biochemical warfare . In the Battle of Angrathar the Wrathgate ( in the Wrath of the Lich King expansion ), Forsaken Grand Apothecary Putress unleashes a plague that kills not only the enemy Scourge but many of his living Horde and Alliance allies , proclaiming : Did you think we had forgotten ? Did you think , we had forgiven ? Behold now the terrible vengeance of the Forsaken , death to the Scourge ! and death to the living ! Professor Putricide , an undead in service of the Scourge , similarly proclaims “ Good news , everyone ! I think I ’ ve perfected a plague that will destroy all life on Azeroth !” Although both Putress and Putricide are both opposed to Sylvanas and the more moderate faction of the Forsaken who favor a degree of peaceable co-existence or pragmatic alliance with some of the other races of Azeroth , even among the Forsaken there is considerable resentment against the living , just as extremists within revolutionary movements in the real world may call for the deaths of the entire races or nations that oppress them . In their battle against the worgen ( werewolves ) in Gilneas during the 2010 Cataclysm expansion , for example , the Forsaken unleash a plague making the land uninhabitable by the living . Responding , perhaps , to the popularity of The Twilight Saga , one particular portion of the Cataclysm expansion creates an historical tradition of enmity between the “ worgen ” ( werewolf ) and undead races , with both using racially-tinged epithets to insult each other during combat , echoing issues in the real world where ethnic tensions between minority groups often serve as distractions from oppression by
