I'd never really noticed this until I read Serakit's Escapees or Exiles, in which Julian is on Terok Nor before the Occupation ends and his relationship with Nog is to die for, I get so emotional about them. But yeah, that series definitely highlighted that blind spot for me and now I cannot unsee because jeeeez. Nog had it so rough for real.
Watching DS9 for the first time and it really strikes me how blatantly the adults show prejudice against Nog bc he's Ferengi. Like, he's a kid with clearly a not-great home life. Y'all expecting bad behavior is just gonna push him towards bad behavior. I just feel bad for him. He's constantly being set up to fail by nearly every adult around him.
