Well, if you want him to _think_ that his discharge was entirely due to his faunushood, I expect that would not be a thought out of the ordinary. There's still oppression and discrimination within the ranks, though probably not systematically enforced, so maybe he's taking the one signal factor and blowing it up in an attempt to absolve himself of wrongdoing.

That sort of victimhood thinking always makes great stories, but maybe that's just me.
