unfortunately i have succumbed to the superman brain rot
left a long comment on this video because white ppl frustrate me sometimes, here it is in plain text:
My first mistake was watching a white wmn explain racism as a Black Person, and I'll own up to that. However, since i've already watched the video i might as well talk about how y'all should not be this far behind progress in 2026. The "White Ppl Who Get It™" have their feet kissed every day for displaying political beliefs that barely meet the minimum requirements of what would be considered progressive thought. There's more than enough people being supportive and uncritical towards the ideas put forth in this video so I'll do the opposite, not to be contrarian, but because we've been having the same conversations for at least a decade and there's too many ppl stuck on this area of their political journey. 1st off you have to call it what it is, MAGA isn't stupid for accepting Peter Thiel and Elon Musk, they're racist.
It was never actually "America First", it was White Colonizers First. You can see it in how they're perfectly fine with their beloved leader cracking down on the "free speech" they supposedly cherished when they were justifying their desire to use slurs with no consequence. There's nothing genuine about them, they're not misunderstood, confused, or secretly good ppl deep down. They're bad people who believe in bad things, and will say and do anything to get what they want. This is not a Hanlon's Razor moment, they really are just malicious, not stupid.
It's very frustrating watching white ppl give their own the benefit of the doubt no matter how bad things get, that's a luxury we don't have. Our reputations do not come with get out of jail free cards and the worst is often assumed of us even when we're doing nothing wrong, so on average we HAVE to have integrity. One of my main issues with white ppl is that they think everything is singular and nothing is connected. All forms of inequality have to go or the rest will sprout back up eventually like the head of a hydra. This Lady acknowledged the relations between different inequalities in this same video, so there's no way she shouldn't be able to fully understand this concept.
She said that poor white ppl needed a racial group to feel superior to or they would be reminded that they’re poor. That can only end in one of two ways, either they join forces with the racial minorities in the fight against classism, or they do what they’re doing RIGHT NOW and fight to maintain white supremacy. EVERYTHING HAS TO GO, racism, sexism, classism, anti-LGBT, etc. You cannot say "let's get rid of racial inequality" while saying at the end that it's okay to keep wealth inequality. She believes that's not what she's saying because she vocalized a desire to narrow the wealth gap, but in that same breath she denounced socialism and communism.
If you don't do away with the tools of oppression you will get nowhere, it'll reappear somewhere else. We can't get rid of racism as long as white ppl still hold institutional power over minorities, especially Natives. In the same vein, we can't get rid of classism & poverty so long as money exists. Money's value comes from other people having less than the next person, that's why wage theft, inflation, wealth hoarding and monetary exploitation in general exist. If everybody is rich then nobody is rich, and if you plan on stopping inflation and making everything fairly priced then there's no point in having money, cut out the middle man.
If white ppl really cared they would relinquish all of the power they hold and give the land back to the Natives. Explaining racial injustuce 101 to other white ppl (Cuz she’s definitely not teaching Black Ppl anything new) while justifying classism at the end is blatantly harmful & counterproductive to whatever change white ppl claim they want to make. Even the phrase used near the end that has obvious racial connotation given it's history, “if those (white) immigrants hate america so much, they need to leave”, should be the last attitude a white person should be taking about anyone. Obviously i'm no mind-reader but I don't believe that was tongue-in-cheek, the creator of this video gives off the vibe that she actually believes in that way of thinking (white american sovereignty), just not towards Black & Brown Ppl. She didn't say "we need to change our thinking", she said "we need to change our messaging".
To me that sounds like an admission of already having that mindset but not showing it publicly. A white person using xenophobia to fight racists in order to preserve the sovereignty of a nation ruled by colonizers is not "woke", we should instead be doing away with these bigoted institutions altogether. Between both groups of white ppl in that conversation, American Land belongs to neither group, it's audacious and disrespectful to suggest otherwise. How do the white ppl who say these things expect to do better than racists when they think just like them? Everything must be a joke to them, because what do they care anyways?
They're fighting for sport while we fight for our lives, at the end of the day if nothing goes right for us, they'll still get to keep their position. A position that’s on shaky foundation at that, it's been obvious to the rest of us for a long time but it's become more apparent now than ever to white wmn given that ICE recently showed us all that they’re willing to harm their own (R.I.P. Renee Good). It makes me wonder if our so-called/Self-proclaimed “allies and advocates” actually want equality. If this is how y’all plan to move forward then we’ll never be free.

Well, I don’t know, it’s kind of ok 🤷♂️
The next time Caine calls for an adventure is gonna be so awkward
it really is insane how little you hear about "america has the world's highest prison population by such a significant margin that it would be seen as excessively over-the-top if it was used in fiction"
before you say "4% isn't that big of a difference between the US and China"
for anyone bad at math 1.4 billion divided by 340 million is about 4. we have a fourth the population of china but a higher prison population and a higher incarceration rate by far. this is just widely publicly available information that you're supposed to just accept. it's not supposed to make you go insane.
The US has the largest prison population AND the highest per capita incarceration rate in the world. The US is home to 4.2% of the world's population but 20% of its incarcerated population. More than 0.6% of the US population is incarcerated.
Men make up 93% of the US prison population, but despite this, the US accounts for 30% of the GLOBAL population of incarcerated women.
Housing insecurity is the most significant predictor of incarceration with 22% of state prisoners experiencing it shortly before incarceration.
12% of state prisoners in the US were unhoused before their 16th birthday.
68% of US state prisoners were first incarcerated before their 16th birthday.
More than half of people in prisons and jails in the US have a mental illness.
Cognitive learning disabilities occur in state prisons at nearly 500% the national rate.
[all data sourced or derived from the Prison Policy Initiative]
Correction: 68% of US state prisoners were first arrested before the age of 19. 38% of US state prisoners were first arrested before the age of 16. (prison policy report)
Is this anything. Idk. It came to me in a vision.
One thing I love about tlok more as I age, is that it actively veers away from pitting women against each other.
While atla wasn't awful on this front, Toph and Katara's arguments often took on the flavour of Toph talking down to Katara for her percieved feminine qualities. Pairing this with Toph's insults towards male characters, specifically Aang, often having an emascualting "Don't be such a girl" type of vibe, it paints a good picture of Toph's strained relationship with femininity, and other girls, most likely due to her past, both in her family and in the ring. Katara and Toph's tale in Ba Sing Se was a nice step away from that rule, but the Runaway sorta circled back towards this argument. As much as Toph seems to secretly enjoy "feminine expression" she will still talk down to it in public.
But we can talk about Toph's internalised misogyny later. We see the phenomenon of women tearing each other down elsewhere in atla too, especially in the relations of the Fire Nation girls, like in how Mai and Azula lash out at Ty Lee in the Beach.
And I'm not saying it's bad that atla portrayed these interactions, they're a part of life and many of us are trained to talk down to other fem folks.
But it is so refreshing to see tlok subvert that trope in B1. For all the complaining about the love triangle, I really love the arc it gives Korra, who has probably barely interacted with girls her age.
When she first meets Asami, she's a little intimidated, but falls a little into that 'not like other girls' streak.
With Korra falling into more of a 'tomboy' category, similarly to Toph, it wouldn't be very unexpected for her to be portrayed with a more tumultuous relationship to femininity and people we percive as fitting into it better. This is something a lot of girl, women and fem folks go through irl.
Korra: [To Asami as she swims over to her; somewhat dismayed.] So, what do you have planned for us today? Let me guess, shopping, makeovers ...
We see that Korra has a set idea of what Asami is like based on her presentation and mannerisms, and doesn't think she can find a common language with her. But this expectation is quickly subverted when Korra and Asami race together and we see that they do get along very well.
And I like that Korra not only apologises for writing Asami off, but also attempts to partake in something feminine, makeup, showing that she's become more open to finding a 'common language' with girliness, something she previously saw as alien.
Korra: I gotta admit, I had you pegged wrong. I thought you were kind of ... prissy. [Raises hand; quickly.] Eh-No offense!
And throughout the show, although there is plenty of drama, Asami and Korra stay on relatively good terms, which is a relief. A lot of shows tend to stoke drama between its female leads, but Korra and Asami stay friendly, and more, throughout the show.
Korra: [Chuckles in relief.] Well, whatever happened with Mako, I'm glad it hasn't come between us. I've never had a girlfriend to hang out with and talk to before, except for Naga. This is nice.
And it's not just Korra and Asami's relationship that fosters an air of women supporting each other. Tlok shows us many women of different backgrounds helping each other become stronger, encouraging them to realise their potential, comforting each other in dark times and so forth. I also think it's nice to see so many older women who support and encourage younger women, as atla did not deliver on that front.
And I know it feels like such a low bar, but I think it's so important to highlight in shows, especially shows starring women and female characters.

No Longer Taking Questions Involving the Wendigo
I have made my stance on the Wendigo very clear: it is not your stock fantasy monsters to use. It can be used accurately if you ask the tribe in question how to use it, but if you’re looking for some “Native magic” to throw into the story, look elsewhere.
It is not a hybrid. Your character can’t be half-Wendigo or part-Wendigo or whatever. You are either possessed by the spirit, have become the whole spirit, or not involved with the Wendigo.
No, they can’t be “good” or anti-heros— they’re many cultures’ definition of evil. No, they can’t be outside of their original Algonquin/Great Lakes peoples contexts.
This also means they don’t belong interacting with witches, especially Christian witches.
If you want to be respectful to Native cultures, put the Wendigo in its full context (including the fact it is evil in our societies) with multiple Native characters involved in the plot, or don’t use it at all.
The obsession with having Native characters be tied to the Wendigo is honestly disturbing. As mentioned, the Wendigo is often a definition of evil. It is an insatiable hunger; it is pure greed. It’s wild and untamed. It’s every negative stereotype of Native Americans— cannibals, demonic, rabid, indiscriminate hunters, a threat to civilized society— wrapped up into one.
Racism against Native Americans founded in these principles is still alive and well. Trace your logic for why you want a greedy cannibal hunter to be tied to your Native character.
We are not your monsters.
