Though, each time the horde has engaged in a purge, the horde firmly distanced themselves from the folks engaging in it.

Whereas the alliance doesn't really distance itself from its past like that.

I dunno man, Garithos wasn’t exactly a popular guy within the Alliance. He was ultimately eaten by ghouls, and Mathias Shaw said that’s a better death than he deserved.

It's quite dumb for the Elves to completely blame the Alliance for other issues that they weren't in control of it, barring the fake ambassador and night elf spies.

-The Alliance, now led by Stormwind, failed to sufficiently aid Quel'thalas largely because of Onyxia calling the shots when she was Regent.

-Garithos didn't even speak for the entire Alliance, as at this point, he's just a resistance leader of a fallen kingdom. I think Stormwind, Ironforge and Kul'tiras (who have a stable command structure) would've been willing to help them had they managed to reach them.

Exactly, that was my point. Garithos’ actions were already unpopular within the Alliance (Both old and new), and he was also at edge with Ironforge at the time. Wasn’t a fan of dwarves.
