Avatar the Last Airbender beautifully told the story of how imperialists lie and have to be called on it and yet somehow certain people missed that message and turned into fire nation apologists

A real post made by a real human being.
And you wonder why Zutara shippers are the fucking joke of the fandom now.
Wft is up with this nonsense. Seriously. There are a bunch of us out here in the fandom that are mixed-race (you know the product of a real life interracial marriage) and/or in an interracial relationship in real life. There’s something seriously fucked up about anyone who holds up their crack-ass fanon ship as representation while talking over real people with actual experience on this (or any related) manner.
On the lighter side, how stupid do you have to be to not realize Kataang is also an interracial ship. In fact, it only takes about two working synapsis to realize that any relationship Aang has will be interracial…you know, due to genocide.

been kind of artblocked lately, but when in doubt, draw katara 🩵
Sokka would genuinely hate this freak
The gall to call the Air Nomads eugenicists while shipping Katara with the leader of the nation that wiped out a huge swathe of her culture as well as the entirety of Aang’s. Like, yes, Zuko is redeemed. But the optics are. Not good.
Not to mention Zuko being the result eugenics due to Ursa and Ozai’s union being made due to a prophecy of powerful offspring.
And yes, Aang ‘favouring’ Tenzin was not the best parenting, but Tennzin was also the only one of Aang’s children who actually could fully engage with the culture Aang was trying so hard to pass down, with Air Nomad culture being so heavily tied to bending.

suckerstyles accusing air nomads of being eugenicists is so ironic considering thats exactly what the genocidal royal family she loves ass kissing so much are. ursa was forced to marry ozai because she was related to roku, azulon believed a descendant of an avatar would produce powerful bending heirs for his lineage lol is that dummy aware of that?
People who are stanning that fuckass colonizers and hating the air nomads are not aware of anything lol they are just watching this show with zutara glasses
I literally cannot stand shippers who try so hard to make it seem like Gihun is more important to Inho’s character than Junho is.
Like I saw someone say that the main plot of squid game is Gihun’s and Inho’s dynamic while Junho is just the “side plot” and that’s insane.
Guys who’s more important to Inho and his character as a whole? Guy he met 3 years ago, who he really actually got to know for like 3 days under a fake ass identity. Who he really doesn’t care about as much as this fandom makes it seem like he does.
Or
His literal fucking brother who he watched and helped grow up and literally sacrificed a kidney for.
“Gihun brought back a bit of Inho’s humanity!” Junho. Did. It. Frist.
If there’s anyone who can still actually bring back Inho’s humanity it’s Junho. Not Gihun.
Do people not realize that when they slander Aang for being a pacifist, they’re feeding into and repeating the same rhetoric that got his people killed in the first place?

Sucks you've encountered such wild takes. I have a fic rec for you if that's cool. It focuses on Aang and acknowledging the depth of his loss:

One of my favorite Aang-centric fics. Hope this helps!
Thank you!
I swear i want to be active in atla fandom so much, but I just can’t stand the weirdos in this fandom

Like, fuck off
