      The politics were probably the least bad in season 2, but they were still somehow the most frustrating.

      The evil villain does a colonialism because he wants to literally destroy all light in the world? How about he just does it because he's a greedy prick and/or actually believes that the Southern Tribe is being grossly irresponsible? Turning him into a moustache-twirling villain just makes colonialism seem like much less of a real issue. It all ends up so flattened, and the fight starts being about metaphysical Light and Darkness and stops being about colonialism.
