more tl;dr
Ah, okay, I gotcha. To clarify, I wasn't trying to make any claim about whether or not the story's bigoted, either. I was just responding to the idea that because box and manofbats were stating things that really happened in the story, any hint of bigotry in the story deduced from their description must be accurate. I disagree with that, for the reasons I stated earlier.
But it seems that's not what you were actually saying, so it's all good.
