OK, so, I should have known better. I admit this. But when I saw Katara-bashing going down in

100+ comments ensued, and various statements of dire stupidity were made by two ladies in particular:
Also, apparently Katara must be a perfectly behaved little angel at all times, as she also condemns Katara for getting pissy with Toph in The Chase. Apparently, not being sunbeams and unicorn rainbows to a newcomer is the same as actively trying to drive them away. Who knew.
Oh, and by the way? I'm a troll. Image macros are my only response.
The other offender,
- Katara should go have a long chat about Zuko's feelings!
- well he's not shooting fire at her RIGHT NOW, is he?
- "OH HONESTLY. what, are you 14 too? am i the only person on the goddamn planet who is willing to TALK to people i DON'T LIKE because maybe i'll find out WHY they are the way they are and gain some insight on how to get along with them better?"
- Sokka is a jerk, and the water tribe siblings just need to grow up and stop harboring a grudge against a dude who helped get their best friend killed.
- "consequences only have a purpose when they can teach a lesson. suffering the consequences for doing bad things AFTER you've already realized they were bad and made amends is pointless."
- And the crowning king of the batshit, "the human mind focuses on 2 things: primacy and recency. by that logic, katara should have 2 impressions of zuko: one of him peacefully leaving her village, as he promised, when aang agreed to go with him, and the other of appa delightedly licking zuko's face before he prostrated himself and begged to be taken prisoner." That's right people, if you actively hunt people down and try to kill them for a year, they'll forget all about it if act nice and get in cahoots with their sky bison!
On the other side of the fence was myself,
Now, this is all hilarious wank, but the real lulz comes in when it turns out that

I am laughing my ass off here. I sort of want to create a new comm for Avatar rants, one with actual defined rules (including 'no character bashing'), and advertise it as 'The rants comm that WON'T ban you for disagreeing with the mod'.
ETA: HAHA, BONUS. I just checked the comm's user info, and
FIRST RULE: this is atla_rants, NOT capslock_atla. the douchebaggery tolerance level is substantially lower here. if you can't discuss a topic without breaking out macros and personal insults, don't bother posting at all.
The lulz factor just went up TWENTY-FOLD.
