ask me about stuff go on do it i dare you (oh god please i feed off of attention)
LOL at people talking about how Aang isn’t Asian because it’s not real life.
But if we made folks in the Hobbit not white, folks would have a fucking FIT.
…is this for fucking real?
BUT AANG CAN’T BE ASIAN
BECAUSE IT’S FANTASY
ASIA DOESN’T EXIST IN FANTASY
DUHHHHHHonly in dynasty fantasies of course
it’s almost…almost!…like if your fantasy world is appropriating a real culture but without all those pesky not white people in it, you’re a huge fucking racist. or something!
