Great, so he... just made it so they discriminated against him quietly.
He was the leader of a hypernationalist organization, and only got that position because a previous leader, who supported the oppression of the Uchiha Clan, which almost lead to an event that would have destroyed the village? Curious.
He's a parentless child who was manipulated into stealing by someone he trusted, anyone who punished him for that would be morally reprehensible.
Yeah, he was also treated like shit. Crazy. Bet Hiruzen would've hated to see his father's name get slandered like that.
Literally no one would prevent that unless they were actively trying to kill Naruto.
Probably, I don't know, not leave him literally alone? Maybe assign him a guardian. Kakashi might be a bad example since he was going through some shit(Although I definitely need to make a "Kakashi adopts Naruto" fanfic, that would be adorable), but there would definitely be someone who was willing to come around once in a while and go "hey, Naruto, are you doing alright? You need any help?"
Seriously, what other Hokage would have just left children to live alone? Tobirama, maybe, but he's psychotic.
They actively despised him, but I'm starting to think he could literally feel that with his senses. But he was lonely as shit, bro was crying alone on a swing in the schoolyard in his free time.
They were actively trying to get their kids not to associate with him. Shikamaru was the biggest exception because his father is a human being with empathy.
And that shit saved the world. Leaving Naruto alone in an apartment and letting Danzo run around unrestrained didn't.
He was treated like garbage, though, I didn't say he was treated the worst out of any Jinchuuriki, that would probably go to the guy who had assassins sent after him by his own dad when he was a child. Or maybe the girl who was just made into a suicide bomb.
I think I said "Hiruzen being treated as a good leader is the real plot hole" somewhere in my original argument, that's my main issue.
He didn't have to, bro just had to come by and be like "hey, guy I promised to take care of, are you doing good?" Funnily enough, this could also be a way to prevent him from accidentally nuking everyone.
I suppose you're right. Apathy, human condition, you know the rest.
