      the thing is- Aang himself understands that his strict adherence to his values is not always a positive thing, i remember in one of the comics (or a later season) he outright calls it his own flaw

      if not for the lion turtle giving him an alternative moments before, he’d have to either kill, or watch the world be destroyed

      he later has to face that flaw again (actually this time) in the big graphic novels that came out, they’re really good btw. give them a read if you have the time to spare

      Korra is also like extremely lib pilled (THe entire message is like “Extremism is bad folks”)

          The anarchists were trying to kill Korra and break the avatar cycle later on because reasons. Pretty sure they didn’t want to risk another Kyoshi, which in all honesty valid. Also they kidnapped the new air nomads but I think that was so they could kidnap Korra so… Yeah.

          Legit I think Korra would’ve joined them had they not started fucking with her, especially since outside of Zuko, Tenzin, and her own father damned near every person in power she encountered was a damned fine example of why they were right.

          Legend of Korra fucked up by making every one of the bad guys except season 2s somewhat reasonable. Amon was a hypocrite but not necessarily wrong from a historical point of view (Dai lee, fire nation), the Red Lotus were just anarchists who went a bit far, and I got bored with season 4 so I can’t remember anything about Earth Nation female Bismarck.
