Yeah, exactly. If you want friends, you need to tolerate lib bullshit, I was stuck listening to a half hour conversation about the new live action avatar recently, and they kept talking about fan theories and stuff and my libbest friend shared their performative lib ideas about Sokka not having an arc where he stops being sexist being a good thing because it removes "controversy." It was so damn mind-numbing.
But they're my libs and I love them.
There were a few people on this site parroting that same opinion so idk if that's an exclusively Lib take
Oh, this was a very lib version of the take though, very much "removing controversy is good. Full Stop." kind of thing. 0 analysis, 0 understanding, just "This thing bad, so it should be gone forever and always."
I still think it is a lib take. Acting like characters in fiction have to be completely flawless from the get go just results in really dull, boring characters. Real people are assholes, and characters in fiction should be assholes too, as long as it is seen as a bad thing by the text. But libs have that whole "this exists in your fiction, which means you must approve of it." complete lack of media analysis.
