Comment on ChapterSong of the Wasteland - Chapter 1
I want to start by saying that I'm not going against anyone's opinion, and even if we might not agree on everything,right now I am just writing what I understood from this chapter, so if you don't like what I write and want to leave an insult, you can just ignore this comment and move on with your daily life.


Spoiler!
With that said, I want to start by saying that the only wrong thing (except the last words the ML said about being his slave) is the structure of how the manhwa was set up, as whatever choice the MC made was bound to be considered wrong (example: If he had kept the slaves to run the ranch, he would have been accused of being a cruel and ruthless slave owner. If he had freed them by kicking them out without a penny, he would have been accused of condemning them to death by starvation or lynching. Having freed them by providing them with money and the means to survive, he is still labeled a white savior.).

He didn't always own the ranch; it was his father's property, not his, and the moment he found out that he inherited the ranch, he freed the people there. We don't know what he thinks about the situation with people being enslaved. From what I felt (and saw from other stories about nobles) in the pages showing him with his family, I felt that the things he was doing (war, accomplishments, etc.) were due to the pressure his father and the environment put on h

I don't remember anything else from my analysis, so I'm going to end it here. I'll repeat that this is only my speculation and what I understood from this single chapter, and I don't mean to go against anyone's ideas.

For now, I will continue to read this and see how it turns out (of course, I hope it goes in a better direction), so I'll postpone any judgment that could cause a discussion and will probably delete this someday, Idk.

@Zero jus read bruh, ain't nobody against it🫩
@Bazooka I spent an hour reading the comments, and as I wrote in my comment, it was just what I understood from the story. I had to write that I don't stand against anyone because if I hadn't specified that, people might have insulted me in some way. So, it's not my fault if I had to write it like this. I just wanted to be safe because the discussion around this manhwa is crazy on other platforms and here
