    Scar is very much of the ruling class and uses and exploits an underclasses anger at the status quo to gain personal power

    common red scare trope. Scar didn't get a chance to correctly portray the uprising from his perspective. you only saw the bourgeoisie's side/telling of it

      Scar made a deal with foreign power (hyenas). He got power and they were allowed to steal natural resources.

          Different region. Scar also simply did a palace coup and used foreign armed forces to solidify his power.
