answerin’ asks about the drama

She deleted the post, but it showed up on my dash regardless. I grabbed a screenshot.

Yeah.

well, there is the fact that he recorded some dialog for Zutarians a few years back about how Mai was super fat and disgusting so he was leaving her for Katara

but given that that was like four years ago and several of the people involved have expressed regret for it, I’m waiting to see how he responds to what’s going on with DeLisle before I make any final judgement on his character.

Hey, it’s okay! <3 I know, it really sucks. It’s honestly the worst part about being an ATLA fan, I think - we know our show’s crew more personally than most other fandoms, and it makes it hard to admire them for their work. Don’t feel bad because you can’t harden your heart against what they say - you want them to be good people, and that’s totally okay. This is an appropriate thing to feel sad about.

Alright, see, what you’re doing is blaming the people who were hurt.

I haven’t seen any sort of apology from DeLisle. All I’ve seen is her threatening to delete her tumblr and blaming “the social justice warriors”. She’s not accepting responsibility for what she said, she’s trying to turn herself into the victim of the situation, and she outright mocked the idea that people were hurt by her jokes. So, no, everyone shouldn’t just drop it. Because if we did, it would reinforce the notion that what she did was okay.

A FEW ADD-ONS because people are reblogging this as a source for what she said:

The original transphobic jokes she made were about how she thought Justin Beiber must secretly have a vagina (as in, implying he was a female-to-male trans* individual because of how high his voice was). She also claimed she was ‘allowed’ to make transphobic jokes because “Azula has a lot of balls!”

There’s also this.
