:
We do know that glukkons are evil though because of the way they mistreat their employees and their environment.
Once again, nurture vs. nature. Glukkons have been brought up with an innate hatred for the Mudokons, and they do everything they can to smother the race out of bitterness.

All the American slave-owners of the 1800's genuinely thought blacks were inferior. This didn't make them evil, just terribly misinformed. The inhabitants of Oddworld all just live in their own separate worlds with their own clashing beliefs. There's no pure good and evil, which I feel gives Oddworld an unmistakable human element to it giving it that much more depth. I also find it wholly ironic that if you compared yourself with an Oddworld race, you'd find you have more in common with the antagonists.
