i feel so bad for nikola tesla like imagine spending years beefing with a guy who has conned the public into believing he's some sort of supergenius when in reality it's his overworked employees developing all of his world-changing inventions and you end up dying broke and starving and alone and then 100 years later another guy cons the public into believing he's some sort of supergenius when in reality it's his overworked employees developing all of his world-changing inventions and he's doing it all IN YOUR NAME. he must be rolling in his grave like a fucking rotisserie chicken

watching sozin's comet pt. 1 and the question of violence against ozai is genuinely so masterfully done. aang's hesitance to use violence by killing ozai isn't presented as an objective moral high ground. in fact, literally every single other character in the show, the other main characters, the past avatars and even yangchen, all tell him: you have to kill this guy. "only justice will bring peace". sokka straight up tells him to get over it and slices a watermelon representing ozai's head in half without remorse. everyone clearly tells him it is not morally wrong for you to end 100 years of violent imperialism with his death. and he doesn't say, "no. it IS morally wrong and im right and we should vote ozai out!", instead he says "but this is not who i am". the message is not that aang should not kill ozai because killing ozai would be wrong, and by extension that fighting imperialism with violence is wrong. instead, its that aang should not kill ozai because it would be a betrayal of himself, his beliefs and of his culture. in refusing to kill ozai and as the last airbender, he is preserving his identity as an air nomad against the title of avatar, something he has struggled with the balance of since the very first episode. and, his refusal to forsake their cultural principals is a form of resistance against the imperialist genocide that cost him his people in the first place. yeah, they had to make it work like this because its a show for 7 year olds. energy-bending is kind of a cop out because it shows up so late with so little explanation. but compared to any other media that has tackled similar issues since.... ive seen nothing nail else it so hard
