Live Action Last Airbender really said in order to get rid of the sexism, some other sexism had to take its place but unlike Sokka learning sexism was bad, the new sexism is never addressed and treated like its okay.

Hi! How are you? What are some of your unpopular opinions? ☺️
Hi! I’m good, and I hope you are as well!
UNPOPULAR OPINIONS
Almond milk is NASTY. Like, nasty. It just... does not hit.
I’m watching Cursed rn (2 episodes in woo!) and Nimue and Arthur actually aren’t that bad. I prefer ships with more development (like a LOT MORE) but they aren’t awful! I don’t exactly ship them like that, but they aren’t super bad. Still watching from a Nimulot lens because of a few posts that hit me in the chest though 🙈
Not technically an unpopular opinion but speaking of Cursed, NIMUE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE BLACK! If you look up the original illustrations from the book, her skin is colored brown. She has Afrocentric features, at the very least she was supposed to be SOME sort of POC. No hate or shame to Katherine Langford since she probably didn’t know about it, but nobody is talking about this for some odd reason and it’s actually hella important. Just watching the show, for me it would be more impactful and powerful to see a black actress portray Nimue. Not to mention the whole Netflix colorism issue but that’s just a whole nother rant waiting to happen diidjdsm
I don’t know if this counts but I will never watch LOK because of what they did to Katara and Zutara in general. I just can’t get over everything I’ve heard about her being sidelined to just the Avatar’s wife with NO STATUES, as well as everything with Sokka and Suki, not to mention Aang not paying any attention to his non fire bender kids. Just... no. Let me live in my non canon world please and thank you 😂
Finnrey over Reylo. Always.
IRIS WEST DESERVES BETTER THAN THE HATE SHE GETS! Westallen hits af and that’s that.
Jane Eyre (in its original form) is overhyped because of the BLATANT RACISM. I pretended Eliza Bennet was black with relatively no issues but I can’t get past the treatment/description of Rochester’s wife in JE. BIPOC deserve regency era aus and other things (dark academia, mythology, etc) without it being tainted.
MORE BIPOC IN PERIOD PIECES, ESPECIALLY FANTASY! NOT AN UNPOPULAR OPINION I JUST WANTED TO SCREAM ABOUT IT 😂
Tiktok is overhyped compared to Vine. Like sure dance challenges are fun but have you ever felt as seen as when you say, “And they were roommates!” and someone else responds, “Oh my god, they were roommates!” Or someone goes, “I’m Jared, 19,” and everybody just gets it immediately. Speaking of, Addison Rae and Dixie and Charli are also overhyped. Like can y’all prop up the black girls and other woc that slay challenges and create them instead of the white girls who get popular doing them???? Thank you.
You shouldn’t write bipoc characters if you’re not bipoc IF the focus of the fic is centered in racism. PLEASE write bipoc characters as JUST characters, as people, not as stereotypes or means to an end.
More soft Bruce Wayne. Gotham’s Bruce is my favorite because they dug into the vulnerability. Like yeah he was a kid but omggg it hit so much harder when he became Batman because you could tell that he still cared about his actions. Like Batman isn’t about just brutalizing people and beating them up, he as a superhero and as a person is so much more than that.
More artist!mj. Let her paint, draw, sculpt, SOMEBODY MAKE A SCULPTOR MJ AU STAT PLEASE!
Not an unpopular opinion technically, just a reminder that Scott McCall was the protagonist of Teen Wolf.
Mal (from Descendants) is HELLA overhyped. Disney villanized two black girls for wanting equality/their life back, and to be honest that says a lot about them.
Bonnie Bennett deserved better. Not exactly unpopular but OH MY GOD! She never got to dress up as much as the other girls, Julie Plec made her the Magical Negro stereotype, and right as she was about to be okay, STEFAN RIPPED HER ONE CONSISTENT L.I.’S HEART OUT IN LITERALLY THE SECOND TO LAST EPISODE. Like are you kidding me? At the VERY LEAST, we should’ve gotten Bonkai, especially with Post Merge Kai in his right mind with emotions. Bamon would have hit so hard though, Klonnie too. Justice for Bonnie Bennett, please.
Reminder that these are just my opinions! It’s all chill and all love around here 💞
That’s all for this ask! Thanks for asking!
