Continuing with my Avatar generation swap, here we have a group of teenage assassins coming after Korra

Ming-Hua, now a combustion bender. Zaheer, a spiritually-attuned wanderer, P'Li, a lavabender, and Ghazan, their plant (and blood) bender.

I will not apologise for Ghazan. He grows into... all of it.

Random red lotus hcs I have, with no explanation or reason:

-Zaheer is the only one who can actually cook.

-Zaheer and P'li sometimes intentionally act disgusting just to annoy Ming-Hua and Ghazan. It always works.

-Ghazan's favourite game is the floor is lava.

-Zaheer either got his eyebrow scar freeing P'li from that one warlord OR in the battle to kidnap korra when she was a kid before they all got thrown in prison to rot for 13 years.

-THEY'RE A FAMILY. I DON'T CARE ABOUT THEIR LIMITED CANON INTERACTIONS. THEY'RE A FAMILY AND THEY LOVE EACH OTHER, SO THERE.

Started watching lok and they spent so much time making mako fumble beautiful women they forgot to make non-benders oppressed

LMFAO yeah book 1 is such a mess. I think they were trying to illustrate that amon is a charlatan who used the plight of the people to disguise his rise to power through framing it as a genuine social movement for equality, but it doesn’t actually make any sense because “non-benders” and “benders” broadly speaking do not constitute coherent classes. the class dynamics in republic city operate along axes of neocolonialism and neoliberalism, so it’s not a matter of non-benders or benders having more power, it’s a matter of 1) who stands to benefit from living in a fire nation neocolony on earth kingdom land (descendants of original fire nation settlers) 2) who controls the means of production (hiroshi ford, primarily!). the sato family are not benders, but they are shown to be far more powerful than mako and bolin, who are literally professional benders, because they are industrialists who control most of the technology in/of the city. in fact, we constantly see mako and bolin’s bending-labor being exploited, whether in dangerous athletic arenas, doing dangerous work for gangs, dangerous factory work, etc. just due to the concrete examples we are shown, if anything, non-benders largely live in wealth, while benders largely live in poverty.

but this evidence, too, is anecdotal, and i don’t believe it, because again, “non-bender” is not a coherent class marker/identity. king kuei is the monarch of the world’s largest nation who has spent his entire life so sheltered that he wasn’t even aware that the world had been devastated by a century of fire nation imperialism. sokka is a colonized subject who spent his entire childhood internalizing the notion that it was his duty to die as a martyr to save his sister who has been valorized due to her unique position as the last waterbender of the southern tribe (which, if you couldn’t tell, is the result of a targeted genocide, not some inherently distinguished qualia that designates benders as ontologically superior). the fact that neither of these characters are benders does not align them socially or politically.

moreover, the reason that katara’s waterbending was valorized within her tribe was due to the scarcity of waterbenders as a result of their systemic elimination. waterbending represents a unique cultural artform to their people (it’s actually one of the first things the show establishes) and only katara possesses the unique capability to continue that legacy. due to the fire nation imperialist project, katara being a waterbender puts a target on her back; yes, it empowers her personally and culturally, but materially it constitutes another facet of her oppression — much like haru as an earthbender in occupied territory, and much like aang as the last airbender. meanwhile, firebenders are materially empowered due to their imperialist dogma that establishes firepower as the inherently superior form of bending / technology of conquest. as atla establishes, bending is political due to its spiritual and cultural value, but is politicized primarily with regards to colonial power dynamics, and thus not all benders constitute a coherent class, certainly not as they would either function to oppress or be oppressed by non-benders.

i’ve seen a lot of people claim that amon represents communism, or more specifically, maoism, which is bogus for many reasons, but most principally is the fact that he quite literally never addresses the issues that are actually oppressing certain people of republic city: namely, capitalism. “oh but he knows he’s bullshitting, he’s just telling people what they want to hear because he’s a populist dictator who just wants to seize power over republic city!” okay, so in the most generous reading of amon, he’s trump (I know lok is an obama era text, but just go with me here): he’s a member of an “oppressive” class disguising himself as a man of the people to appeal to a broad demographic by scapegoating an arbitrary group of people through tactics of fearmongering (“benders will kill you and your family…for reasons”) because he’s simply a power-hungry conman. he knows that neither non-benders nor benders are materially oppressed, and is simply exploiting the intuitive logic that it must suck to be a non-bender in a world full of people with literal superpowers for his own benefit.

and he’s doing all this …. because he had an abusive father??? or something???? nothing about his motivations or ideology is coherent. when jet manipulates katara and aang into helping them fill the reservoir, it’s with the explicit intention to flood an occupied village as a mode of anticolonial resistance. when long feng manipulates kuei into being his malleable puppet, it’s with the express purpose of controlling the entire earth kingdom from the shadows. amon wants power…because? maybe i’m just remembering key details from his tragic backstory (granted, it’s been a while since i’ve rewatched lok), but i can’t remember amon ever expressing a coherent ideology or motivation besides maybe spite? and either way, his role as a populist dictator villain who employs the signifiers of the chinese cultural revolution is pretty obviously in poor taste when the blatantly pressing issues of capitalist and neocolonial exploitation are never actually addressed and critiqued beyond the bogeyman anarchist terrorists and the fascist ethnonationalist pointing out that the status quo is bad, maybe? to which they must all ultimately be made to surrender to the effusive, all-powerful glory of impotent liberalism. whatever. at least we have korrasami.

Walk walk fashion baby~

I’ve made the red lotus members wear traditional costumes of what I imagine would be their ethnic group: for P’Li I chose traditional Japanese clothing and for Ming Hua a Siberian inspired wear!

Please keep in mind that I am in no way an expert in such cultures and I’m taking what I could find on the internet as a source. My intent is to uplift these beautiful clothes on some of my favorite characters. It is very possible I made mistakes in replicating clothes from cultures I do not know that well and I do not want in any way to offend anyone! As a matter of fact, I’d love to have some feedback from someone who does know them!

Wait a minuet

Why dosen't she do this???

#source: kataangcaps #i hope I spells that correctly #anyway #its because the LoK writers wanted to be as lazy with waterbending as possible #they couldn't think of a sub element to give Ming Hua other than bLoOdBeNdInG #so they slapped the octopus arms technique on to her #It made her more interesting than half of Zaheer's gang #but still #and why is Kya barred from cloudbending? #“Aang and Katara didn't teach her” ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THAT #THEY DIDN'T TEACH HER THE SUBBENDING STYLE ASSOCIATED WITH THEIR LOVE???????? #same thing goes for Tenzin #atla aang #atla katara #kataang #lok kya #lok tenzin
