Racism in Oblivion is child’s play. Morrowind had full on race based slavery.

There’s a quest where slavers/drug smugglers ask you to escort a Khajiit slave who has been forced to swallow a bunch of moon sugar. If you choose to complete the task, they’ll just kill her when she arrives to get the drugs.

There’s a couple quests where you can also return freed slaves back to their owners.

Funnily enough, even you play as a Dunmer lots of the Dunmer will still hate you because you have some kind of imperial accent.

Playing Telvanni can have you putting down slave rebellions.

The main antagonist of the game literally wants to create his own ethnostate.

Based and Dagothpilled.

I always thought the natives know your dark elf is an outlander because they don't have the raspy, 3-pack a day voice.

One time I used the Farming mod and Fliggs Slave mod to buy out every plantation in the Ascadian Isles. I had an empire with hundreds of Khajiit and Argonian slaves, which enabled my Princess (mod, alternative start where you are Helseth’s illegitimate child) to live a life of luxury. Thousands of septims on imported fancy dresses (mods lol), luxury houses, it was glorious.
