    Oh, absolutely you are right 100%. I love the show despite the gripes. But it is also just a show. I watch it for entertainment. It has a good story and good jokes. The fact it’s being so heavily critiqued is just… Idk. Weird? Of all the horrible shows and animes out there, some that literally support actual fascism… To go after little ol Avatar seems really silly to me.

      Yeah that’s completely fine, but what people consume, specially pop culture since it is so popular and specially as a kid, help mold what they think. You’re not wrong that it is just a kid’s show, but I think it’s great to have people do marxist analysis of this type of stuff, we need to dispute these spaces that are already occupied by neolibs and fascists, who critiques shows all the time already. But you’re right, there should be more effort into critiquing from our side on shit that is much more problematic and actually fascistic.
