Like even on the topic of the racism in Avatar, there are so many better approaches to confronting it than convincing someone who already agrees with you that they’re a bad person anyway for one bit of critique of method

Everyone has a list of so-called "red flags" when they're dating. And for some, especially younger Americans, different political views is a relationship deal breaker.

Okay, slight rant, but bear with me...

The term "Leftist" still implies you're working underneath the ideological idea of what American Empire asserts. You contextualize your political belief within the spectrum of a colonial system instead of outside of it. (1/6)

and the fact that these films are still allowed to be made and will be wildly successful and celebrated shows that now, even when we've seen better, even when we KNOW better, they will still choose that harm if it entertains them.

And how you talk about that problematic racist media matters, especially when you're not the one being targeted and not the one being harmed by it.

I like to think that she was poking fun at problematic media. But that problematic media is new media. It was released this month in 2025, going into 2026, and it still has all of the problems of the racist tropes and narratives of the past, this time arguably WORSE.

I think dismissing it as trash is just kind of an anti intellectual approach.

Pop culture has a tremendous effect on our cultural outlook, & should be discussed accordingly.

Especially when those topics reinforce cultural biases.

Apparently Americans need to be reminded yet again that we have never suspended elections during a war. Lincoln was reelected during the Civil War (a large part of why we have absentee voting), FDR during WW2. It's never been true, and scaring folks with untrue things makes you not a good person.

In addition to just how racist this is as a whole, how like EVERY BIPOC on Tiktok has addressed how racist it is, Lady Emily saw the backlash Abigail Thorn received for her racism and was like "let me try since it's blue cats this time"

These aren't meant to honor us, they are meant literally as an insult. Like his exact words spell that out.

Like saying I'm making representation to spit on you, isn't representation Natives need.

He literally called us a "dead society" and that "we should have fought harder."

Cameron has been clear this series is meant to be anti-Indigenous and to show us how white people could have saved us.

It's disgusting that people are even watching these because CGI is more important than racism.

who cares if a critique "isn't original"? it's still valid

also yeah no it's not exactly a thrilling thing for any marginalized people to hear their rights and voices matter less than an intellectual property! ask how we know! fuck off with this crybully-ass behavior

It's the "are you happy??" At the end like?? Am I happy that someone addressed that the thing they like is racist? Not particularly. It's not exactly a joyful experience to be reminded the you guys will choose your racist entertainment over Native people EVERY TIME.
Actually its because it’s very strange and funny you found someone saying they like how funny Avatar is, and then you spammed their replies talking about how racist it is (not even an original opinion) expecting some kind of response (which they gave, are you happy?).
December 31, 2025 at 6:13 AM
Anyways white folks with huge platforms, when your racism goes unchecked on a public forum, you give your fans and followers the Green light to be racist and often in your defense so idk maybe do better and check your own people?

Dear Leftists: I love you, but none of your "-ism" government ideas made by white guys are better than Landback restoration and sovereignty.

What exactly do you want me to say?

"Oh thank you for addressing this, you're definitely not racist, I was wrong, you're a good white person after all?"

She's not gonna fuck you dude, you can stop now
This is the one, by the way.
Again, I was surprised I didn't see you in there.
