When it started with the Sokka thing I was figuring people were overreacting to it since it was a pretty minor plotline that wasn't key to the story. My first thought was "The water tribe's leaders are more openly sexist as a plot point." so it'd be fine to cut that minor component of Sokka's character in favor of maybe even expanding the stuff on that front with Katara.

...Then they say they're cutting that, so now Katara loses a lot from proving a patriarchal society wrong. Less conflict or intrigue, just smoothed any sense of edges out and make her character less badass.

Then they start saying Aang's gonna have a vision and all of the small stops that help build chaacter are just going to be excised from the show, then they say they're gonna show the Airbender genocide when the image of his master's skeleton was about as effective of an image as you could make, etc etc.

No wonder the writers left. This is going to be utterly horrendous lol, they have contempt for the source material.
