Did The Description Match? 👇

No, the description did not match. Every verifiable piece of documentation we possess that is public record affirms that it was not a match, despite the continuing media lie and lies from prosecutors. Here are two links where I have proven such.

Did The Jury Flip? 👇

No, 10 out of the original 12 that deliberated maintain a Not Guilty verdict, as well as 8 alternates who did not deliberate but sat in on the entire trial. 2 jurors flipped 2 months after the verdict, contradicting their past interviews and original statements made to the media following the verdict. Money was an incentive. I provided sources/evidence in an answered ask.

-> The Jury Did Not Flip!

Did Jackson Possess Child Porn? 👇

Absolutely not! Possession of child pornography is a felony crime, which would have resulted in him being charged with possession, not to mention he would have been convicted. What Michael Jackson did own was art photography books, which I have made numerous at length posts explaining.

Did Jackson Have BDSM Porn? 👇

No, Jackson did not have BDSM/Torture porn. This was a lie started in 2016 by tabloids like Radar Online, who edited raid documents and photoshopped books to make it appear as though Jackson owned material he was never written to possess in any search warrant or seizure from 03-05.

i do nawt play abt kataang

[dukeofdelirium]

What is this obsession with anti Aang/kataang people fixating on Aang “not apologizing” for The Desert episode? This is a multi episode arc, and Aang does end up talking to Katara at the very end of The Serpent’s Pass episode (the last episode of the arc), where he explains he has been going through a very difficult time but that he loves her, that he is hopeful again, and that he sees in the family they’ve helped a future with her. This whole monologue from Aang makes Katara cry tears of happiness and they embrace, and he then parts from the group to look for Appa only after continuing to specifically thank Katara for all she’s done for him.

Just because he doesn’t say the words “I’m sorry” doesn’t mean he hasn’t made amends. He literally does and she cries over it, because she was upset that he was shutting her out emotionally. I don’t see any of y’all saying Katara was wrong for telling Aang he didn’t understand what she was feeling in The Southern Raiders, or her attempting to steal Appa in the middle of the night without even asking Aang for permission despite the fact she knows very well how important Appa is to him, or the fact that what she says to Sokka in this same episode is genuinely cruel. And Aang (and Sokka too) doesn’t hold any of these things over her head either, because he understands that she is not in her right frame of mind. Just like Katara understood Aang wasn’t in his right frame of mind during those episodes.

Aang does the exact same thing for her in The Southern Raiders that Katara did for him in book 2. These characters are best friends above all else, I don’t get this stupid fandom obsession with trying to insinuate Katara hates Aang. She doesn’t and never will, no matter how much y’all want her to.

Oh they better be fucking joking I s2g, Paramount did absolutely nothing when it leaked and haven’t done ANY promotion for this movie, they pulled it from theaters when the film was MADE to be watched on a huge screen, and now this? Do not piss me off!!! This better be fake 🤬 because if it’s real, they are unceremoniously announcing this with zero promotion or even a trailer release, just in some fuckass tweet they deleted right after when it isn’t even from the main account

its funny to me how zks talk about z*tara like one of its biggest appeals is zuko helping katara with chores as if aang and sokka dont do that. the only person katara ever got into a fight with about not doing chores was toph while there are multiple examples throughout the show of aang and sokka doing different chores without katara ever asking them to do it. the way they headcanon katara as this slave for the gaang really is weird when they canonically divided the chores evenly

[dukeofdelirium]

And Zuko doesn’t even do chores when he joins the group??? He literally serves tea once because that’s all bro knows how to do LMAO like hello?? Zuko straight up was crying and throwing up over having to do commoner labor in book 2 😭✌️

Aang and Sokka both help do chores, they literally just say this because Katara was jealous that Aang was talking to all those girls at Kyoshi Island in episode 4 (ep FOUR of the entire show btw), because he said he wanted to talk to the girls instead of carry the basket Katara had. Mind you, Aang apologized on screen for this in that very same episode. That and, Katara just asked Aang to help because she was jealous and wanted him to stop talking to the girls. Which she admits he was right about when they later apologize to each other and make up

Like you said, the only person Katara actually accused of doing nothing to help out in the group is Toph and there’s a whole episode devoted to it. And, we have canonical confirmation that Aang does other things for Katara when they’re dating/married, one being that he often cooks for her

They want Katara to be a miserable slave wife to Aang so she can be rescued from his abuse by Prince Charming aka Zuko sooooooo bad lol it’s hilarious 🤣

[dukeofdelirium]

I saw someone say it's important for Aang to choose his responsibilities and is more important to save the world than be attached to a little crush (its much more than that but sure). So why is it important for Aangs character to choose Katara over cosmic energy in that moment? Has it to do with Aang grief with his people and is tied back to the 4 part episodes in the end?

Firstly, I’ve written numerous metas on this which I’ll link because I don’t have the time rn to lay out all of these thoughts once again.

💬 1  🔁 429  ❤️ 769 · Thinking about how Aang is punished for choosing power over love and his own happiness, punished for sacrificing anothe

Katara is inherently tied to the love Aang has for his people and nation. Yes, this whole moment is just as much about Kataang as it is about Aang’s grief over the air nomad genocide.

Aang does give her up to save her life, and he is narratively punished for it. The whole narrative tells us that Aang should NOT give up his attachments, because this is the entire reason he exists as the avatar, and more importantly, the expectation of him to give up his attachments and love for others is the very thing that CAUSED the imbalance to begin with. The council members at his temple were plotting to separate him permanently from Gyatso’s care, and ship him off to be rigorously trained as a weapon of war that THEY could use as protection. They didn’t see Aang’s humanity and didn’t care to at that moment. They were willing to strip him bare of anything until he was deity only. That was why he ran away, and that is why the entire story exists.

This expectation goes against everything the story lays out for us, and it’s even explicitly verbalized on screen when Yangchen tells Aang he cannot detach himself from the world the way other airbenders do. Because his purpose is to serve the world, and Katara is his tether. In other words, he narratively serves her character. That’s why she is the narrator at the beginning of each episode. It’s her story just as much as it is Aang’s.

Aang isn’t able to master the avatar state until he confronts his grief over his people. Which he narratively can’t properly do until the 100th anniversary of their deaths during Sozin’s Comet.

Also, Aang didn’t have a crush on Katara. He was in love with her by this point, and she was in love with him throughout the show too. A crush is shallow, temporary, and typically born from not even knowing the object of interest. Aang knew Katara deeply and had seen good and bad sides of her. She was his best friend and he loved her deeply.

[blackbullet99]

“Katara would hate that Aang gave up the Avatar State for her”

OH REALLY?

The same Katara who was ecstatic that Aang came to save her and had faith that he would come

The same Katara who in tears and heartbroken because Aang literally left her in “The Awakening” because he felt that it was his duty to save the world by himself?

They want Katara to hate Aang so badly, because THEY hate Aang for not just letting go of his feelings and ignoring his vision of the girl he cares about in danger, and getting in the way of their fan-ship

I mean, the tags say it all, why do I always see Zutara, Anti-Kataang and Anti-Aang of all things in the Pro-Katara tag? Why do they only see Katara’s worth in the guy she ends up with?

Slander Katara’s true soulmate isn’t gonna change anything. Katara would hate y’all

[dukeofdelirium]

I literally just saw a zutarian in my replies on one of my posts saying this too lmao. Katara would NOT support Aang letting go of her to achieve unlimited power. We know this because SHE can’t let HIM go either, that’s why she nearly drowns everyone in the catacombs without hesitation so she can catch him before he can hit the ground! That’s why she is able to bring him back from the dead! Because she loves him and won’t let him go!

She even brings up in the first episode of book 2 that the avatar state can be helpful power, but that it’s also scary for her to see Aang in such a way, because it isn’t really him. She acknowledges how traumatic it actually is for him, and was against him trying to force it. So why would she support him once again forcing it by doing something he doesn’t want to do?

We are narratively shown that Aang doing this, giving her up, is BAD! It’s the entire reason he ran away from the temple before the events of the show. He’s even explicitly told at the end of the show by a past avatar that he CANT detach himself. It’s impossible. His entire reason for existing is to be attached to the world and the people in it, and the tether for him is Katara. He is the avatar, he exists to serve the world, and narratively that is represented via KATARA. That’s kind of why he is the physical embodiment of HER hope, and HER wish for peace. He exists to serve her character. He defies actual space, time and death to be with her because she summons him. What is not clicking with these people?

She is his tether to the world he is tasked to protect and care for. He exists to serve the world and her. She revives him and summons his avatar spirit back to his body just as she rose him out of the ice. He saves the world for her and couldn’t have done it without her support and love. That’s the whole point!

[childsacrifice]

(no beers in) So how do you perceive me in the privacy of your thoughts

[dukeofdelirium]

Why is NATLA literally making Aang a misogynist who treats Katara like absolute shit 😭✌️ first it was him agreeing with a sexist and telling her not to fight, now it’s him yelling in her face and blaming her for everything and even implying she’s a shitty teacher, him making jokes at her expense etc. What the hell is going on lmao, animated Aang would throw NATLA Aang through a fucking wall for talking to Katara like that. The entire cartoon, he constantly praised her, showed respect for her as his teacher, found any opportunity he could to boost her confidence, and listened to her advice. She was his trusted confidant through and through, and his best friend above all else. They’re actually making this into some “I hate my wife” bit and it’s gross. Brother eugh… eugh brother what’s that????

[toph-bi-fong]

This adaption was made specifically to cater to z/tar/a shippers and it shows. No wonder the OG creators left the project.

[dukeofdelirium]

True, but what confuses me is like, if they’re going to do zutara, why are they genuinely making Zuko worse than he is canonically? 😭😂 bro stole food and water from a pregnant woman, he tried to set Katara on fire in the first season of NATLA and triggered her PTSD, etc. Like he’s actually more evil in NATLA than he ever was in the cartoon, so what are they doing??? That doesn’t make the ship look any better

[toph-bi-fong]

Zuko attempts to set Katara on fire, and yet somehow, this is less toxic than Kataang. 🤪

[mysticalfolklore]

One thing people also tend to forget that Aang is NOT a goodie twoshoes. He's a MENACE. And he's also Katara's greatest enabler. Examples:

She stole a waterbending scroll? Oh no... Anyways we might as well use it :D

She wants to learn waterbending but Pakku won't teach her? Well that's ok we'll cheat the system by ME teaching YOU!

She wants to fight said sexist teacher? Gotta cheer her on!

She wants to destroy a factory that's hurting the ecosystem? Well two benders are better than one!

Impersonate a spirit? Can't do that without some good ole airbending razzle dazzle :D

And these are JUST from the top of my head. Aang would NEVER scold her cause he'd probably have already moved on to thinking of the bright side while having fun. And he would NEVER MAKE CRUDE JOKES AT HER EXPENSE! No offense, but the kid has thought she was perfection incarnate since book 1. She could do no wrong in his eyes.

Honestly i don't even know what to say about Zuko. Netflix managed to trash everything. It must be a talent.

[dukeofdelirium]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Aang is basically the ‘bad boy with a heart of gold’ trope lol.

Katara very much has a type and it’s cool guys that break rules, help people, and are kind hearted. She took a liking to Haru for these qualities, she had a crush on Jet for the same thing (she believed he was helping people anyway), and Aang is like the coolest and kindest hearted guy of them all. Zuko is literally an awkward loser in canon and has no friends, he has to hang out with his little sister’s friends. He is NOT cool and Katara would never be into him 😭

[dukeofdelirium]

Aang said “why would I choose cosmic energy over Katara?” and Katara said “let me tell you something right now. You make one step backward, one slip up, give me one reason to think you might hurt Aang, and I’ll make sure your destiny ends right then and there. Permanently!”

Katara puts booktok boyfriends to shame. She was NOT playing about her husband lmao she said I can and will kill you to protect what I LOVE ✌️😭 queen
