So, I came across a post that compared how Zutara shippers treat Aang to how Catradora shippers treat Glimmer. And I have to say that this couldn't be more wrong.
The big difference between Glimmer and Aang is that Glimmer apologized. She took accountability for how she treated Adora (and Bow) and tried to make it right. Catra stans/Catradora shippers are hypocritical if they accept Catra's apology but not hers. Adora and Glimmer's conflict was way more both-ways, they both did and said things they didn't mean because they were stressed (and Double Trouble was manipulating them, along with Shadow Weaver getting into Glimmer's head). Adora even admits this herself, which is why she isn't angry at Glimmer. Catra and Adora's issues were way more one-sided, Catra's behavior against Adora was unwarranted.
Meanwhile, Aang never had to take accountability for how he treated Katara and still ended up with her. He got everything he wanted with no repercussions. And it's not like his behavior changed. He's still dismissive of her feelings in the comics. And Katara is the one who has to pay the price, she continues to shove aside her feelings so he can be happy. So not only does this behavior in Aang persist, it escalates at Katara's expense.
If Aang had owned up to what he did, apologized, and changed his behavior like Glimmer did the OP would be right. But he didn't. Glimmer and Aang are nowhere near the same in this context
