@asoiaflvr @ptoughkneigh @kiyodia Iroh was writing letters joking about burning an Earth Kingdom to the ground. He also wasn't just a general, he was also a prince, and would have been king if he succeeded in Ba Sing Se. He was a war criminal partaking in genocide, and didn't care until his own son died.

@Mar_li1 @ptoughkneigh @kiyodia Iroh isn’t a war criminal and this misinformation being spread across ATLA spaces is frustrating. Taking part in a war/being a General in one doesn’t make you a war criminal. Committing war crimes makes you a war criminal. And Iroh’s Fire Nation past is too vague to confirm that.

i rlly wish these characters had been handled w more tact & empathy with more tact bc i hate how their stories ended

@mushabooooms Feels like she unintentionally did this because she needed someone else (Shane) to be the "bad guy" in Ilyas life after his dad's death/ brother estrangement. She couldn't write without some conflict for Ilya.

@ptoughkneigh @kiyodia Yet, in the same show, Iroh (a war criminal) gets reformed, and becomes a patreon saint. He even makes it to the spirit world. Zuko, who was terrorizing and destroying villages in pursuit of the Avatar also gets a redemption. The white writer wrote it that way for a reason!

@kiyodia I mean she kid kidnap a bunch of random innocent people and jet tried to kill a bunch of innocent people, at least jet died trying to do some good

@filmphorias It's also completely unprofessional. Where have we seen a director and author consistently speak down on a cast member, during a press run? They are in a position of power, and don't seem to realize the weight of their words.

i’m only gonna say one thing on this bc you guys know how i am and i don’t wanna stay here too long but i will say…if this is their humor and this is their dynamic with their cast members i wouldn’t care but where it gets annoying to me is the fact that it’s only ever one person

@thotzekage The timeline of their relationship is so messy. Mark breaks up with Amber after the Anissa incident. That same night he fights Angstrom Levy, sees future eve who tells him about the relationship. Then few weeks later, he asks Eve out.

Wait Mark and Eve dating now??? If I was amber I would crash out cause wym???

@acuraintegirls It's so unfortunate that the tag of "aggressive crazy rabid fans" will be put on Hudsons fanbase for calling put prejudice, but not for the co-leads racist fans that are spreading kkk and nazi rhetoric daily. They will go unchecked.

@thebrainglitter Ironically they hate on Jenna Ortega for not being selective enough. There's constantly discourse on how she's such a film enthusiast, but has a shitty filmography. Social media is exhausting.

hating on him for this is very funny consideirng all the discourse y'all have been having about directors and their shitty fanfiction scripts. y'all pick a new director to shit on every month (rightfully so or not) but when hudson says it the pitchforks come out... #interesting

@Cornydetective1 @alertadoflequiy @BeYAYA444 Beyonce literally opened each show on the Cowboy Carter tour with this exact rendition. Y'all love to act obtuse when it comes to her.

@alertadoflequiy @BeYAYA444 Also this youtu.be/sjzZh6-h9fM?si…

I love that everyone understands the use of the US flag as critique in art now 🇺🇸

@bisexualdva It is less about consent, and more of a class/ wealth gap issue. How many times have you heard of millionaires or wealthy women becoming surrogates? It's almost always women in financial need that are surrogates. It exploits that financial need.

sorry but can someone educate me on why surrogacy in this case is being labeled as using a woman’s body? is surrogacy not consensual? does the surrogate not know what is going to happen when the deal is made?

the way yall talk about cynthia is so deeply rooted in racism. shes not a stud. shes not arianas bodyguard and shes not about to fall apart just because ariana does press without her. you make her out to be this guard dog when shes a very gentle and feminine presenting woman

@DHSgov They push this racist script so you blame immigrants instead of billionaires.

I fixed it for you: “Rent is too high!” Corporate landlords bought entire neighborhoods and jacked prices so high you need a co-signer just to breathe. “Groceries cost too much!” Billion-dollar food conglomerates are price-gouging you while bragging about record profits. “There aren’t enough jobs!” CEOs laid off Americans to pump stock prices and walked away with bonuses the size of small countries’ budgets. “Women don’t feel safe walking down the street!” Statistically the danger is coming from Americans they already know, not the imaginary immigrant you turned into a movie villain. “Traffic is terrible!” That is what happens when everyone drives a giant truck to buy a single iced coffee. Consumerism is wonderful, isn’t it? “Healthcare is too expensive!” A private insurance cartel did that. Your elected officials built that system brick by brick. “Welfare spending is through the roof!” Undocumented immigrants cannot collect welfare. If you believe they can, you should go pick up an Economics for Dummies book and read about it. “I can’t afford a car!” Automakers slapped luxury prices on basic models because they know you will blame anything except the corporations squeezing you. “I can’t afford a house!” Hedge funds bought entire zip codes with cash offers. Not one undocumented worker is outbidding families at those auctions. Many problems. A simple reality: Immigrants are not wrecking your life. Your government let billionaires strip this country for parts and then told you to blame the people with the least power. They know who’s actually bleeding you dry, but calling out corporate greed would upset their donors… so they hand you immigrants as the scapegoat and hope you’re too stupid to notice. Punch up, not sideways.

@afriyieau1 Army are so caught up in kpop fanwars, where they drag artists, whose labels actively promote their music to new audiences. Even though bts has gotten that in the past. Folks act like dynamite magically got over 400 million airplay, without label investment.

Damn I can’t believe I got crucified for this opinion 🫩

@VanilleFraise42 @mminimonimusic Y'all are so funny saying this. Seven debuted with 6.4 million radioplay in its first week, in 2023. Following your statement, did Jk "pay for spin like other western artists or even kpop groups with an us label"? Was that "payola" as well?

@Mar_li1 @mminimonimusic Or should they pay for spin like other western artists or even kpop groups with an us label for you to be satisfied, rejoining the "100k spins with 2 streams" clubs ?

fyi, payola means paying for radio play and you do NOT get radio out of good will, your label finances that and take it out of YOUR check.

@dimplelover875 @mminimonimusic Here's the proof. Dynamite had over 400 million total airplay. Butter was getting over 30 million airplay after 3 months. Seven debuted with over 6 million airplay.

@Mar_li1 @mminimonimusic you have proof of this? and the radio would never play the full bts songs and wouldn’t play the rap parts. and it’s not even the same when western artists have it so much easier.

@Kayte1613 With the amount of resources available, there's no reason why every release shouldn't get dynamite level of promo. The radio and playlisting that was available then should have been available throughout ch2. Hobi & Joon have explicitly mention wanting chart success/awards.

When the tome comes .. a lot of u will say the truth about how that label handled tannies solo releases and no this is not about “its the promo the boys want talk” for a top artist like tannies.. they really just gave us “take here damn” ass vibe..

@ilylianhua It already is. Same people who have cheered on nazis, support pannchoa (a racist trumpie), and trivialize rape and assault.

congratulations 👏 you are one step away from turning the kpop community to conservative cesspool

kpop stans in the past 24 hours have enabled ksh defenders, terfs, incels, misogynistic men all in the name of being more morally superior than these kpop idols

@Lolawinxclub Spanish speaking artists have had incredible success in the US and around the world long before Bad Bunny. It's a big industry. Unfortunately, BTS are the first Korean music superstars. The world hasn't seen that before, and there's no precedent to follow.

It reminds me of when someone spoke about the difference between bad bnny and Bts in the support they get from their community….. I don’t think bad bnny has yt ppl constantly defining how to be his race/culture..

@SAPPH1CJK What does that accountability look like? Why is there never discourse on other acts? Why are you not adding bits to create similar discourse for your other interests? For how much folks speak about not only stanning bts, there's only ever discourse with bts. That's the issue.

@Mar_li1 ofc i will say that not everyone im a fan of is going to have friends i also like or that are good people... but that's the thing i can hold my favs accountable for shit like that. but rn bts are the ones being spoken about so im going to add my bit to the discourse.

some of you armys look stupid asf trying to defend bts for their adult actions rather than holding them accountable and wanting them to better themselves... you can still love them and be a fan whilst still saying some things they do are questionable/wrong
