Kuma is probably the best of the rare good dads of one piece.
The callback to the burning of grey terminal was great imo. Becori replicating the “cleansing” policies of other countries is unfortunately a pretty direct reflection of history. It is this type of detail that really elevates one piece as leftist fiction though. Grey terminal was just explicit agit prop.
The different responses from the public in Sorbet kingdom vs Goa was really interesting to me. Goa seemed much more physically stratified by class, so that may be why the burning of grey terminal didn’t met the same public opposition that the burning of the south did in Sorbet kingdom.
