Well, they don’t seem inclined to cannibalism until they’re injured, anyway. Which is as fair as you can ask for

What makes it a sticking point is that the other races are each minorities in their world. They came together forced by necessity as only then they could surpass the numbers and prowess of humans (who had been abusing their majority status exactly as Harky describes). That could inform someone looking not too hard enough that the “savage” races were more into diversity and coexistance than humans.

I have no doubts that any of these races (or rather, members of them) would equally abuse other races should they become the majority.

It’s pretty clear that while there is a larger conflict between the two cultures, this is very personal for Big Boss Harky.

What little we’ve seen of Avian culture in general makes them hard to place, Savasi seem fine with anyone but Humans, and Gnomes generally seem pretty accepting, until you do something to get yourself personally excluded (ie: Bandit’s kleptomania), but…yeah. Generally, this is a pretty universal thing.

Humans, Trolls, Wood Elves, Sky Elves, Gnolls, all pretty ‘monkeysphere’ (with individual or practical exceptions), Goblins seem culturally disinclined to even expand their sphere past ‘useful people’ and Landsharks…well, they don’t seem inclined to cannibalism, at least.

The problem with Harky’s list of human failings isn’t that he’s wrong about them, it’s that he’s implying they’re unique in that regard. From what we’ve seen, the same is true about every race, including his.
