That take is pretty yikes on its own, but read the room, Lindsay.

Asian-American and Pacific Islander, I would guess.What is AAPI ?

Ok, I'm lost. Can I get some context for the Lindsay Ellis tweet? I knew the ATLA movie was garbage (I watched it) but does it really need its own category of fantasy?

like, she might apologize eventually, but you gotta wonder why she didnt see from the outs that she fucked up that takelindsay seems incapable of
- apologizing
- saying she was wrong

did you just respond to yourself?like, she might apologize eventually, but you gotta wonder why she didnt see from the outs that she fucked up that take
take the L and try to learn
yes
They're clearly two different dogs, but one of them is evil...EEEEEEEEVIL.
U mean white people in general?lindsay seems incapable of
- apologizing
- saying she was wrong
Yeah, the moment she did that bullshit "Apology" video to Stephanie Meyer and COMPLETELY sidestepped the racism issues surround Twilight, I knew something like this might happen...
It literally brings out the shit side of people.It's crazy, cause her brand is being super informed, doing the researched, and crossing the Ts. Like you literally only have one job
Who would've thought the white who did this
Would have been engaged with this? Never saw it coming.
Lol, some of you are too much. She's posting Outkast gifs about fucking Georgia. We're really trying to twist this into something badClassic white person using only black people in gifs because "Lol black person funny and silly"
God forbid someone just say "I'm sorry, I really fucked up when I said that" instead of either
A. Tucking tail and running
B. Doubling Down
C. Ignoring it
or
D. "Sorry that you were offended"
dammit, i finally caught my own tail
Raya and Avatar share similar themes, but that's because both are based on various mythologies from across Southeast Asia. So yeah, Raya would have Avatar qualities, ut that's like saying Dragon Age has Game of Thrones qualities when they're both based on similar and overlapping mythologies.I don't think she's talking about the movie. I think she's talking about the show, and saying it's in the same genre as Raya. I could be completely wrong, as I haven't watched Raya yet.
didn't really watch Avatar:The last airbender series...but from what I see, it reminds me of the wuxia genre...i read lots of asian novels, (god bless novel updates), and i cant remember to see stories like avatar tbh
im looking some up on twitter, but i have no way of knowing for sure if they were legit or not since i aint been following this wreckI have to wonder what else was said before she nuked her account. I hope someone somewhere has screenshots.
I've read all those tweets but I still don't quite understand what's offensive about the Lindsey tweet. I haven't seen ATLA or Raya which may be why I'm confused.
Will someone here help me understand better?
Did what, celebrated the fact that the AA vote saved the country?Who would've thought the white who did this
Would have been engaged with this? Never saw it coming.

I would be more hopeful that she would do so if it wasn't for the whole Contrapoints situation where she sided with Natalie.like, she might apologize eventually, but you gotta wonder why she didnt see from the outs that she fucked up that take

If that is a true tweet I guess that answers it.im looking some up on twitter, but i have no way of knowing for sure if they were legit or not since i aint been following this wreck

It's a tone deaf statement.
I can see where if you squint I was implying all asian-inspired properties are the same, especially if you were already privy to those conversations where I had not seen them. But the basic framework of TLA is becoming popular in fantasy fiction outside of Asian-inspired stuff
And you know what, you're right. Someone once joked I don't tweet like someone with 300k + followers, and they were right too. I don't get the luxury of a throwaway tweet, and I'll keep that in mind going forward.
