It’s an extra special touch with half of them labeled drug dealer when skooma is part of their religion. It’s prohibition targeting a religious and racial minority.
Semi related: in the USA, marijuana came with Mexican immigrants, so a lot of the criminalization stems from racism and xenophobia. The same applies to Brazil, since it was typical to find natives and blacks smoking it.
If I remember moon sugar is part of the religion but people took that and refined it into the narcotic skooma. UESP says the Dunmer were the ones who refined skooma originally and that moonsugar is more potent for non-khajiit. So drug dealers from other lands take something they aren’t physically adapted to consume, refine it, sell it, and malign khajiit as drug addicts for using it natively.
Like a teetotaler fainting at the fumes of a beer and calling you an alcoholic.
I think that’s the joke.
They’re marginalized by society, they need to resort to illegal stuff to survive. In the end, that’s a vicious cycle that affects many of us, too.
100%. The OP is literally how people justify racism IRL.

That aspect was lost on me. Nice catch.

I don’t think raping is required to live…
“It’s the marginalization that made me rape” lol
Yes, we should always trust the labels our oppressors put on us. They’re surely being honest. lol
Rapist is such a racist label for casual forced sex anyway
