You won't get any argument from me there that it's ridiculous to think it's wrong to like Aang better than Zuko--I've come across plenty of people who don't particularly like Zuko as a character or who like Aang better. Some people just find Zuko annoying until he redeems himself. There are also people who found his story more interesting but would say Aang was a better person. I'm glad I haven't had to listen to the people you've come across who hold that double standard--but I totally believe they exist. (Hell, I know there are people who argue that Aang just hasn't suffered anything--Aang whose entire race was wiped out.)

I also agree that he is in no way the way he was described in the post above--there's nothing selfish about his loving Katara or not killing Ozai. He felt like killing Ozai was wrong so explored other options even when everybody else was sure that was the only way. It was, imo, a wonderful way to honor the Air Bender culture who were wiped out. Aang didn't have to give up who he was or reject the values of his lost culture.

And the weird thing about putting him down in favor of Zuko is the whole show is about how great it is that they become friends--which mostly happens because Aang, like Iroh, is a really loving person. Which has a huge effect on Zuko--that's why he brings up Aang saying he thought they could be friends when he tries to join the gAang. Zuko has no interest in Katara romantically--and frankly if he did have any sort of interest he probably would have dismissed it because he was Aang's friend and he thinks Aang is awesome. Zuko seems to see himself as a tremendously asshole a lot of the time--he's embarassed for himself. In the end no matter what he's suffered that's what's worst about him--as I think gets said outright in The Beach! There's a reason he's matched with two people who are very forgiving--he's known for hurting most some of the people who love him most!
