It really does seem like some users are trying to push a narrative that paints this character as being far worse than he actually is through implications rather than fact. If Runeard had confirmed that he intentionally wanted the Northuldrans wiped out and didn't care about the consequences for instigating a war, then perhaps he could have had a shot at qualifying, but as it stands, some users are reaching to make him sound as such. This then leaves him being little more than a generic oppressive ruler and Hate Sink. Therefore, I'd go with cutting him.
