A list of things *I personally* consider green flags in the ATLA fandom.
I repeat, personal list, not a given fact or broad take.
Sokka, Azula, Appa, Jet or minor characters as pfps.
Iroh, White Lotus, Zuko and Toph criticism. (If still grounded in canon characterization and in the correct contexts/not hating just to hate)
Jinko, Jetko, Teoaang, Haruteo, Sukka, Yuekka and Zukka shippers. We chill.
Autistic Zuko and Azula truthers.
Katara, Jet, Hama, Azula, Aang defenders.
Anti-Zutarians and Anti-Maikos.
Those appreciating and sharing about the cultures that inspired ATLA's.
Momo glazers. I'm serious.
Big fans of minor characters.
"Instead of bitching about how character(s) xyz had a moment of anger, hesitation, fear, sadness or any other negative emotion, I either understood them or even shared their emotions."
Sokka kins.
Those who can't go very long without praising the glory that is the gorgeous background animation.
"I had a shower thought. Here it is."
Those associating songs, artists with or creating entire playlists for characters.
Those putting trigger or casual warnings on posts before showing the content.
Those willing to have civil discussions even with disagreements, being able to share their takes respectfully.
Those sharing the most *random* parts of ATLA (an insignificant line, a background animation, an animation error, appreciation a background character design, wondering about random objects and the world building implications.)
Whatever you call people who act like moots but we aren't moots but we have that vibe going on.
"I have way too many headcanons." No, you don't, keep them coming. Let's hear them.
Anti-comics, Anti-NATLA and Anti-movie gang.
Those who include Suki as part of the Gaang.
Those who didn't fall for Ty Lee's innocent facade.
People who interpret Zuko's hair as dark brown. Idk. Irdk.
Freckled Aang, Jin and Jet truthers.
Anti-Bryke and Bryke crits but knowing where to draw the line between criticism and obsessive hate.
Anti-Gene-Yang.
Those treating Azula's mental breakdown with respect + those made severely uncomfortable that fighting game turned it into a playable skin.
The frequently crossing paths users making playful jabs at eachother.
Anyone who appreciates The Great Divide's animation even if they too agree it's the most skippable episode.
Those sharing goofy screencaps with zero context.
The news updates folks.
Those who do not use terms such as "bipolar, narcissistic, schizophrenic, sociopathic, psychopathic" ect to describe Azula or other characters like its nothing.
Those keeping the Roku-Sozin "historians say they were just friends" jokes alive.
Image ID adders. (I'm sorry, I've tried, idk why it's so hard for me.)
Theater kid Zuko truthers.
"Don't ever talk to me or my 273002 kids ever again" Jet psuedo-big-brother-papa truthers.
The ones who get rightfully enraged over whitewashing.
"The Beach was enjoyable and had good emotional moments but it's not one of THE best written episodes" truthers.
The ones who truly bring the geek energy to the table. I love ya'll.
Probably whoever read this post in full and or is stalking my blog. Yes, you, hey there.
