Except that the criticisms are generally completely valid.

Also, if you're supporting something solely because other people are mocking it, you sound kind of bored and wannabe-special snowflake.
But, hey, whatever entertains you I guess.

[habilelapin]

↑ I agree with both of these points. I thought we stopped doing stuff like that after we got out of high school.

How exactly is it valid? So, starting in episode eight to the finale (So four episodes) he got caught up in being worried about Korra. Someone he was too single minded to realize he was in love with. The kid messed up, but he was not as big of a dick as fandom has made him out to be.

I've rewatched the season a few times, and I just do not see how Mako is the devil incarnate. And no, being overly concerned for a friend for a day or two does not deserve the amount of hate the fandom has tacked onto that.

Wow, someone sort of did call "confused teenage boy". Not exactly the same thing, but similar.

He was a jerk to his girlfriend and strung her along, cheated on her and tried to pin the blame on his brother, didn't have the balls to break up with her properly...it's not as simple as "fell in love with someone else and suddenly became concerned about her".

Also echoing the point several have already brought up: he was never called out on his actions and never had to face any consequences. That's kind of a big part of it too.

Re: DA

I really wish people would stop equating a kiss that another person started to cheating. He did not grab Korra, swing her over the shoulder, and bang in in the bushes while Asami calls is looking for him. You're over exaggerating that kiss, and blowing it way out of proportion.

Mako was not a dick to Asami for the entire show. He had an innocent kiss with Korra, who was the one to start it. He then completely forgot about it and went back to Asami. Sorry, but he. chose. Asami. over. Korra. in. episode. seven. You can't say he was never kind to Asami. It's just an outright lie.

You are far too heated and emotionally attached to this discussion than you need to be. Any point you might have gets thrown out the window, because all you're doing is blowing simple things out of proportion and using them as facts.

I'm sorry, but Mako's behavior in the last four episodes is not anywhere near as bad as you people make it out to be.

Ok, stop right there and back up.

Kissing another person while you're dating someone is cheating. Period. Full stop. Seriously.

Mako was not a dick to Asami for the entire show.

No, and I never said he was. He was a jerk to her for a good part of it, though.

kiss with Korra, who was the one to start it.

Playing the game of "who started it" is pointless. They were both at fault for what happened - but Mako is the one who broke his commitment to another person by doing so. He didn't push away from her; he kissed her back, and as such assumed responsibility.

Sorry, but he. chose. Asami. over. Korra. in. episode. seven. You can't say he was never kind to Asami.

I'm not sure what these assertions have to do with each other. Are you saying that by deigning to allow Asami to date his beautiful ass was an act of kindness? I mean, dating someone isn't mean, but...it's not kindness either, it's just...something that happens. It can go well or poorly and sets up the framework for treating someone either well, or badly.

You are far too heated and emotionally attached to this discussion than you need to be.

ahahahhaa.....what

go look in the mirror, and try again, please. Your tone here is way more emotional than mine. And I can't believe you are being so presumptuous as to assume you know how I am feeling and what level of emotion I am putting into this conversation. (Since you care so much, though, it's relatively low.)

Arguing about a point that I have an opinion on, stating my opinion, and pointing out what happens in the show =/= being ~emotional and ~heated

Seriously, are you trolling? Because if so, well done, you had me until that last bit.

(But if you're not trolling...look at what I wrote and what you wrote before telling me I'm "emotionally attached" again plz)

Though to be fair, you did get me to put a little emotion in this now, what with your condescending accusations of my apparent hysteria, plus your flippant treatment of actions that most definitely ARE cheating, which ngl kind of pisses me off.

Re: DA

[still_twitching]

Kissing another person while you're dating someone is cheating. Period. Full stop. Seriously.

See, I agree, and before episode five of Korra happened, figured it was one of those things that should go without saying (kissing someone else while you're in a relationship with another = cheating). I was stunned when not only were there people who legit felt that Mako kissing Korra back wasn't cheating, but that, holy shit, 'telling Asami about it would only hurt her and cause her to be suspicious.'

I never thought that it was necessary to have to clarify with someone beforehand that yes, I consider you kissing anyone who isn't me, on the lips, cheating, and if you do, if you have any respect/care for me at all, you would tell me. Any subsequent 'suspicion,' on my part, if I don't promptly dump your ass is your own damn fault.

(Just to clarify: this isn't a knock towards people who feel this way. I was - and still kind of am - taken aback by it is all.)

Re: DA

[diet_poison]

ia with you completely. I can't believe the attitude that, apparently, it's ok to mess around with someone when you're dating someone else, as long as you don't go ~too far. (No one has defined what "too far" is, or why.) (Disclaimer: unless of course you are in an open relationship or something like that, or you're poly and your other partner[s] know[s] all about it and is ok with it, or whatever else.)

Re: DA

[(Anonymous)]

exactly this.

[(Anonymous)]

nah, the snowflakes in this case are you mako haters who think he's the devil incarnate. y'all are funny and entertaining, please keep it up. lol.

[(Anonymous)]

sad you're so unfunny and repetitive

Mako deserves better trolls

[opal_skies]

I don't know exactly, because I haven't finished reading, but I'm pretty sure nobody here has yet cast aspersions of quite that nature on him.

[(Anonymous)]

wow it's like i'm in the original ATLA fandom all over again listening to 12 year olds whine about shipping

you are literally all of those 12 year olds combined into one person who has a raging hard-on for mako
