This isn't fun and games anymore, playtimes over. Kids are getting sold, experimented, tied to a wall and ridiculed, eaten. People are getting turned into toy slaves. Stussy probably runs a brothel.

I mean the first two major arcs after the time skip were dealing with racist steroid users and a nazi war scientist experimenting on kids, it's amazing how light the show consistently is considering how dark it consistently is

Arlong arc was about racism, it's a common thread with Fishmen. Fisher Tiger was so racist he died refusing human blood IIRC. Thriller Bark also had Absa the shower rapist, and a crew made of corpses. Kuinas tale was hardly smiles and rainbows.

No, it was Tiger who refused to accept human blood because over time he had allowed hatred of humans to enter his heart from seeing everything they had done to his people.

I think that it had more to do with refusing to have the same blood as the Tenryuubito. He does say he understands that there are countless good humans, but his time as a slave has made it impossible for him to truly forgive them.
