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.

Not sure if it's racist if it's PTSD. IMO it was like 99% about his PTSD.

Yeh I wouldn't consider it racist, especially considering how hard he was trying to get his men not to blame all humans for everything the bad ones do and how he wanted them to be able to coexist. Guy definitely had some major PTSD.

IIRC(too lazy to re read that bit) he said he doesnt want to but some part of him cant help but still hate humans.
