Amazing, ATLA fans can come up with any answer except for "she was a villain."

"Azula made her do it." As if Azula would care if Mai was excited or smiling while beating people up. ATLA fans are so ready to call Azula a sociopath for anything but crickets when it's anyone else.

I remember when I said Ursa was a pro FN imperialist because she smiled about Iroh burning down Ba Sing Se and slaughtering thousands. As if she has a gun to her head.

I am a black cis woman so I have been in this place before. I know the black mra playbook like the back of my hand so when trans men starting using the exact words, I saw it immediately. I kept getting tmra content in my feed so I blocked the tags "transandrophobia" and "transmisandry" in order to curate my algorithm.

I will start: transgender men, like all men, benefit from male privilege. Being a minority does not dock one from male privilege. One trans man claimed that trans men have a wage gap with cis men and women so they therefore do not benefit from male privilege. Well let's look at the stats and:

Oh...

It is highly disingenuous to create minority stats without separating men and women because in every case, women have it worse.

Let's continue on. The argument is that a trans man only benefits from male privilege only if he's stealth. But being a visible minority has never stopped male privilege. That's what black mras claim, that the visibility of being black stops privilege in its tracks. No. A white woman similarly is oppressed for being a woman and privileged for being white.

Going on the black mra route. There was a girl (won't mention her) who was prosecuted for having a stillborn baby (pre Roe v Wade being struck down) and was found not guilty. I would see black men saying that if she was a black woman, she would be found guilty of first degree murder. Looking at similar cases with poc women, probably true. But they're not saying this because they think poc women deserve the same rights as white women, it's because they want white women to be oppressed the same way poc women are.

The hatred for white privilege comes from the fact that it leaves them in a less favourable position. They want to be on the same playing field as white men. It's not a feminist opinion. Black mras desire to oppress black women and white women in the same way.

Same for the "white feminism" or "white (trans) woman" talk. Oftentimes, white people appropriate black feminist thought. I saw a pro Baldoni idiot call America Ferrera a white feminist, America is a woc.

I'm sorry and I hate that I have to clarify, but you don't mean that in a fat phobic way about the actress, right? I'm sorry I hate that I feel the need to ask but Mai and Azula's actors have been getting a lot of hate for not being stick thin like their characters were in the animated show

Nope! The actresses are of a normal weight.

I am so sorry precious.

Consistent irresponsibility, failure to sustain consistent work behavior, or honor monetary obligations

Is that not sus to anyone else? Not being able to do well at school of a job is "sociopathic?"

Psychiatry is inherently authoritarian and your story is not unusual, try and keep going.
