The Hyenas in the Lion King are second class citizens living in squalor.
I refuse to accept this film as Lawful Good
The differences between Lawful Good and Lawful Evil are mostly aesthetic in my opinion. (They're both evil.)
actually (🤓) no. Lawful means having a set of principles not neccesarily obeying law or other people's rules.
Thars why my table calls it Aweful Good and refuses to include it. No true neutral either except for some eldrich beings
Off-topic, but there’s a character in Disco Elysium that perfectly encapsulates your comment: Evart.
In addition to helping you find your police-issued gun, the dude is an absolutely corrupt asshole, and does everything for the wrong reasons. However, he’s in charge of the labor union for the harbor in the city you are in, and he actually does a lot of good things for the workers - not because they are good, but because it furthers his political base and, if you take him at face value, he truly does believe in protecting the working class. Evart does everything very lawfully, so you can’t really arrest him for anything illegal because he hasn’t done anything illegal. So while it’s very easy to write him off as LE, he does have enough nuance to arguably be considered LG in some cases.
Yeah, following laws because they're the law with no regards to whether or not the law is just gets into bad places real fast. Opposite problem with chaotic good: automatically assuming that all laws and rules need to be opposed to do good leads to iffy or worse stuff too.
In conclusion: Neutral Good is the only real Good
Weren't the hyenas explicitly outside the kingdom? I don't remember the demarcation that well
Yeah, upholding the current ruling because it's the current ruling order is definitely more lawful neutral than lawful good.
