Did you know?
In 2002, Israeli forces invaded the West Bank city of Ramallah and seized three television stations, and broadcast porn on the airways as psychological warfare against the Palestinian people

@kiyobiooru@katara_loopies -she's been taught. The portion of the fandom who came up w this hdcn are also distinctly non-white people from colonized cultures who've had long discussions about the relationship between this and the colonial attitudes towards our indigenious practices and how they use-
@kiyobiooru@katara_loopies Bloodbending is still something she's learned from her cultural elder, and she can't just put off something she's learned because she only knows it through evil, especially because it is related to her culture. She can use it for good and she should be allowed to reclaim what-
@katara_loopies I don't understand why so many of you are either being purposely obtuse or not keeping track of Kataras arc throughout the show and how TSR is treated as the culminating episode, with no interference from external events or plot whatsoever
@katara_loopies No one is arguing those episodes aren't important for Katara and don't explore or character and aren't important showcases of her. But they are not an episode singularly meant for her conflict and her alone, for a character theme written since the beginning of the show.
@coolgirl4tysuki Painted lady was still her saving a village, the blood bending episode would've been Katara centric entirely if it wasn't specifically to create a villainous caricature of a genocide survivor and write her off as only evil in the end through Aang and Sokkas own dialogue.
@Blingo_Borgundi His history was also gay in a not very good way, the silver age was notorious for the period specific homoerotic jokes/insinuations in his interactions with Robin/Superman back when Robin was his ward and not his son. There's readership commentary from the time talking about it
@Blingo_Borgundi GhostBuster or whatever still bi and wants him, Two face was made bi recently and canonically wants him, i don't even understand what Hush has but it's not straight.
@Blingo_Borgundi The eight kids? Still there. The queer kids? Tim and Cass are still alive and there. Tim was actually made queer recently after the retcon and has a boyfriend! His ex(?) Wives? Selinas Still Bi, I'm not sure about Talia, idk if the desert orgy counts.
@faralong_o Those are bad things he did! Correct! Do you remember the episodes after where he renounced his previous believes, apologized for this and helped them escape the assassin he sent? Or they not canon and these are, selectively?
@faralong_o The taking away autonomy talk is usually specifically about when he kissed her twice, the concern w him in TSR is him lecturing her to forgive his mother's killer. I would not say "you sound like jet" and "and this isn't like you" is just nudging, let's not be disingenuous.
@kataradove Aang canonically did not know his people got genocided yet. That iswhy he's denying it, he hasn't started grieving something he doesn't even know. Idk why everyone keeps insisting he's grieving smthng he doesn't know yet, his denial GRIEF scene is when he sees the body
