E;R appreciation thread

[who dare wins?]

Kuvira had the most potential due to not being a mystery box and actually improving the world with rebuilding the fractured earth nation. But by this point the writers went full mental illness and even though there is literally no better altenative than forcibly uniting the earth nations than letting bandits tear areas apart, it still had to go "military bad".

I fully believe they did this because they thought the show didn’t have the nuance enough to explain that to kids (being too retarded) and being the same level of anti-war rhetoric as the manchildren left who were watching season 4 (on fucking web release no less). I honestly thought she would have worked perfectly as Mosley/Mussolini/Franco/Hitler/Stalin analog (dictators in general) as she actually had a proper plan in place. Who wants to bet money one of them was watching gundam when they came up with the mech idea at the end because they couldn’t write a satisfying conclusion?

Amon was such wasted potential, hell all of Korra was

Amon was all pure aura moments it was insane how badly he was wasted. Even his death was total aura.

You can tell though that I think the directors probably didn’t expect another season thanks to his death, and they realised they had written themselves into a fucking corner with how it was. Thus they kept it going for longer than it should have because they are greedy and wanted money.

Slightly relevant, but If I hear one more nigger call amon communist I'm gonna flip. The term has been beaten to death but it quite literally it reaks of media illiteracy. Amon represents civil rights, he seeks to combat a two tier society where the second class citizens are the non benders. He has nothing to do with economics, means of production, power of the state, privitization/nationalization.

Now you can debate how stupid or not stupid that is in regards to a two tier society existing at all in legend of korra when it didn't exist in legend of aang and arguably doesn't even make sense (since non benders can give birth to benders and vice versa), but if we take the premise on its face, amon represents civil rights, not fucking communism.
