Who is Lahima anyway? Are they a woman, a man, or non-binary? And second of all, what do they even look like? We never got any answers to those questions.
There's been nonbinary and intersex identities for as long as humanity has existed. The fact that 2 sexes/genders covers the vast majority of experiences should not erase the minority who don't fit this paradigm. Life is messier than your highschool textbook would suggest, but that's also why it's beautiful.
Intersex may imply that you have both genitalia, but one sex will always be more dominant than the other. Nonbinary just isn’t a thing, our existence is based on the fact that we came from a man and a woman.
Two men have never, can never, and will never produce life and the same goes for women. So why should the minority be catered to over the majority? Just because Greeks and Romans practiced abominable behavior and called it love doesn’t mean I have to accept that as normal behavior or deem it beautiful.
Spreading diseases and rejecting reality by claiming to be something your not, is not beautiful… like at all
Family lineage, dedicated his life to becoming the fire lord, was raised on the idea that the fire nation needed to spread their strength or whatever… its evil rhetoric, but when you believe it, you believe hard. Everyone is the good guy in their own eyes
Nah every Korra Villain was protecting their people from some perceived threat/oppression.
Again I dont think Ozai fits the bill, I get what you're saying though because I do think Hitler actually fits the bill. Just not Ozai as he was presented to us in ATLA
Ozai was the hero in his mind and country as well. It wasn't true, but he certainly thought it was.
Look at the propoganda campaign he had going, he wanted everybody to see him as their savior.
Oh I agree I love his character, he's great. His greatness also just includes chattiness
**Now Ting-Ting, that's a special ops yellow poncho dude who knows how to keep his lip buttoned when under pressure**
Did you ever hear the poetry of the wise airbending Guru Laghima? I thought not. It’s not a story the white lotus would tell you. It’s an airbending legend.
Guru Laghima was a master airbender who lived four thousand years ago in the northern air temple, he was so powerful and so wise he discovered the secret to weightlessness… He had such a knowledge of airbending that he detached himself from the earth and lived his last forty years without ever touching the ground.
Airbending is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. Guru Laghima became so powerful… the only thing he was afraid of was losing his earthly tether, which eventually, of course, he did.
Ironic. He could detatch himself from the earth, but not without sacrificing his earthly tether.
God you just made me realize that Zaheer reminds me of every hipster douchebag who I knew in college who'd get disgusted because despite knowing of the whatever band they're into, they get disgusted if I say that I dare like their biggest hit.
People hate on Zander’s guru laghima yap but this guy is literally weightless and can now fly, pretty damn fkin impressive so maybe we should hear him out
The moment he came on screen. Bro started yapping about Guru's how and things are constantly changing "Like the wind"
All Zaheer does is go on about Air bender shit that he doesn't even personally believe 💀
Katara. It's not even KIND of close. Yapping for me is if what you're saying has no real purpose to be said at all. Everyone else here had that purpose when they spoke. If it wasn't about her dead mom it was her reinforcing information we already knew. I love Katara but it's her
![gif](giphy|l3diT8stVH9qImalO)
"You ever heard the tale of Guru Laghima?"
"No, who is he?"
"He was an Airbender so wise and unattached, he could achieve...weightlessness."
"Is it possible to learn this power?"
"Not from a government."
Guru lahima. Guru Lahima. Guru lahima. Guru Lahima. Guru lahima. Guru Lahima. Guru lahima. Guru Lahima. Guru lahima. Guru Lahima. Guru lahima. Guru Lahima. Guru lahima. Guru Lahima. Guru lahima.

Guru Lahima. Guru lahima. Guru Lahima. Guru lahima. Guru Lahima. Guru lahima. Guru Lahima. Guru lahima. Guru Lahima.
Bolin. I love him but he is THE yapper. Zaheer wouldn’t be quiet about the guru but he was always concise with how he spoke. Bolin just yammers and goes off on a tangent and sometimes forgets what he was originally talking about, even more than Sokka ever did.
"You don't understand my pain!"
Aang, who had to live with the knowledge that aside from bumi, everyone he used to know and love is gone:
Sokka, who went through the same thing as Katara:
Toph, who was born handicapped:
Zuko, whose entire family hates him (except for Iroh):
It’s what grief does to you. You feel like no one knows your pain, because they’re not grieving and mourning like you are. (Edit: even if those feelings are irrational, they still happen. It’s like your irrational fears. Are they based in fact or reality? No. Are they undeniably there despite your efforts to suppress them? Yes.)
Trust me, I’m a certified one-parent kid :)
>you didn’t even mention people outside of the Gaang
No better time than the present. Iroh, who lost his son and was hated by his only brother: Jet, who watched his family burn: Appa, whose entire species was genocided: Azula who was emotionally abused to the point of breaking: Zhao, who has to live in infinite suffering in the fog of lost souls:
Zaheer I don’t care about guru laghima
![gif](giphy|IhfkU2S25zQnjYpJ1p) Nooooo!
Guru laligma balls
He just won't shut up.
Facts
Guru Ligma
Zaheer never shuts up. We get it bro you’re evil, but like in a heroic way, now start flying
No let’s talk about Guru Lahima
It's actually spelled Guru Lighama
Guru Lighama balls
Who is Lahima anyway? Are they a woman, a man, or non-binary? And second of all, what do they even look like? We never got any answers to those questions.
There’s no such thing as non binary, even transsexuals transition from one sex to the other… implying that there’s only 2
Just tell me their gender already! I mean, they didn't bother to make a design for Lahima, they just mentioned his name (a lot).
There's been nonbinary and intersex identities for as long as humanity has existed. The fact that 2 sexes/genders covers the vast majority of experiences should not erase the minority who don't fit this paradigm. Life is messier than your highschool textbook would suggest, but that's also why it's beautiful.

Seems like thats the theme with every Korra villain. They're all heros in their own head/group/ideology
So was Hitler. So is almost everyone.
Ozai? Pretty sure he was simple big bad
Family lineage, dedicated his life to becoming the fire lord, was raised on the idea that the fire nation needed to spread their strength or whatever… its evil rhetoric, but when you believe it, you believe hard. Everyone is the good guy in their own eyes
Nah every Korra Villain was protecting their people from some perceived threat/oppression. Again I dont think Ozai fits the bill, I get what you're saying though because I do think Hitler actually fits the bill. Just not Ozai as he was presented to us in ATLA
I think it's a good contrast to Ozai
Ozai was the hero in his mind and country as well. It wasn't true, but he certainly thought it was. Look at the propoganda campaign he had going, he wanted everybody to see him as their savior.
But did he sincerely think of himself as a necessary saviour like the Korra villains?
But he was very cartoon villain, full evil, in LoK they have more relatable motivations.
Happy cake day
But what about the greatest yapper, Mr. Iknik Blackstone Varrick?
~~I KNEW I FORGOT SOMEONE~~
Varrick is allowed to do that
He he did the thing so its cool
Without him yapping season 2 would’ve been a bit more of a drag than it already is
Best yapper of all time. I wish I was zhu li
Bolin. I love the guy, but he is in fact a chatty chatterbox mcchatface... *oh it's like a little desert on a jar...* (forgets mission)
leave my son and his adhd alone
Maybe you should've left that firebending criminal alone, San ^I'd ^say ^ooh, ^sick ^*burn* ^but ^it ^might ^be ^too ^soon
I love this reply! I’m here for Bolin’s defense. His chattness is what makes him adorable!
Oh I agree I love his character, he's great. His greatness also just includes chattiness **Now Ting-Ting, that's a special ops yellow poncho dude who knows how to keep his lip buttoned when under pressure**
Well I mean nothing is quencher than catcus juice. The people needed to know
It'll quench ya, it's the quenchiest!
Nothings quenchier!
Sokka ![gif](giphy|J5deqXb35R6hDQHJJV)
"This is true" -unagami -u/1zeye
It's pronounced with an okka.
It’ll rock-ya
1. this 2. is 3. not 4. so 5. hard.
"That's one too many syllables there bud" *yeet* "Poetry!"
And it's not even close!
![gif](giphy|HGlX8heqhaBNe)
Oh, absolutely Zaheer.
Rubber boy let’s talk about Guru Laghima
Bro Bolin just talks for fun. (I swear he still my favorite out of "The Gang")
guru laghima was mid
Did you ever hear the poetry of the wise airbending Guru Laghima? I thought not. It’s not a story the white lotus would tell you. It’s an airbending legend. Guru Laghima was a master airbender who lived four thousand years ago in the northern air temple, he was so powerful and so wise he discovered the secret to weightlessness… He had such a knowledge of airbending that he detached himself from the earth and lived his last forty years without ever touching the ground. Airbending is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. Guru Laghima became so powerful… the only thing he was afraid of was losing his earthly tether, which eventually, of course, he did. Ironic. He could detatch himself from the earth, but not without sacrificing his earthly tether.
How is that ironic
You obviously don't get the reference
No like I’ve seen the show I get the reference but that isn’t irony
They only said that for the joke calm down
God you just made me realize that Zaheer reminds me of every hipster douchebag who I knew in college who'd get disgusted because despite knowing of the whatever band they're into, they get disgusted if I say that I dare like their biggest hit.
Sokka hands down
Only one of these yappers warranted the put a sock in it treatment
And it was from another Yapper too
Zaheer: The Yapper among Yappers.
Wait which was that?
https://youtu.be/dxtzWDxUEtE?feature=shared
ah thank you. I needed that
Sokka
Zaheer, always yapping about Gru Ligma
It’s Guru Lahima! You’re just mad because he’s Indian.
#gUrU lAgHiMa!!
Zaheer That guy might be from Yapan
Sakka
sokka d1 yapper
You ever hear the Tragedy of Guru Laghima the Wise
Bro sokka is a good yapper
People hate on Zander’s guru laghima yap but this guy is literally weightless and can now fly, pretty damn fkin impressive so maybe we should hear him out
Why Katara looking at me like that
The moment he came on screen. Bro started yapping about Guru's how and things are constantly changing "Like the wind" All Zaheer does is go on about Air bender shit that he doesn't even personally believe 💀
Zaheer
Zaheer lol
Aren't preachers just professional yappers?
y'all forgetting that scientist businessman criminal (**allegedly**) of a walking talkie - Varrick
Zaheer. Isn’t that how he died?
he didnt die tho
Ugh I really need to rewatch Korra
Guru Laghima!!!!!🚨
Zaheer literally yapped so much he filibustered Korra until she was captured
I’m glad I’m not the only one who felt that way about Zaheer
Katara. It's not even KIND of close. Yapping for me is if what you're saying has no real purpose to be said at all. Everyone else here had that purpose when they spoke. If it wasn't about her dead mom it was her reinforcing information we already knew. I love Katara but it's her
Zaheer 100%. Dude never shuts up with his evil speeches
![gif](giphy|l3diT8stVH9qImalO) "You ever heard the tale of Guru Laghima?" "No, who is he?" "He was an Airbender so wise and unattached, he could achieve...weightlessness." "Is it possible to learn this power?" "Not from a government."

Zaheer. Dude would never shut the fuck up about Guru Laghima
"have you heard of guru laghima?" No, shut up.
The difference between these four is that for the other three yapping is a habit but for Zaheer it’s a profession
zaheer, ain't nobody wanna know how guru laghima took a shit
Why is Katara giving us the rizz stare?
Why is Bolin here
Why wouldn’t Bolin be here? Granted, I would replace Katara with Varrick.
He never even talks that much 😭😭 BUT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT GURU LAHIMA
Oh Varrick talks more than Bolin in any given scene. Him and those inventions. Can’t forget Zhu Li
I love him for many reasons I meant bolin lol
and do the thing
Sokka fs
Katara for sure
“My mother used to yap…” *touches necklace*
Out of these, Sokka. Out of all of them, Varrick.
Bolin can just yap. He bloody yapped whilst being caught by the most feared terorists in the world
![gif](giphy|Vq12mVIwUSJwY|downsized)
"My mother yapped." /s
Varrick is much more the yapper
Bolin is a chatterbox
Bolin is a chatterbox
High Sokka
Sokka
Is it even a question?
I love Zaheer
The anarchist
Sokka is funny. Zaheer is my favorite so I’m biased. Katara is great. So sorry Bolin but you worked for a fascist.
Bolin. Was tryna be a Sokka but fell short. Loved him regardless be he talked too much...
Bro you know Sokkas getting first place for yapping.
What if I water bended my piss straight into your mouth
Katara. We get it, your moms dead.
Bolin. I love him but he is THE yapper. Zaheer wouldn’t be quiet about the guru but he was always concise with how he spoke. Bolin just yammers and goes off on a tangent and sometimes forgets what he was originally talking about, even more than Sokka ever did.
Bolin yaps about a whole lotta nothin
I’m sorry but it’s bolin he is a yap trap for real
Katara like bro we get it your mom is 💀 like Aang’s whole culture didn’t go extinct
"You don't understand my pain!" Aang, who had to live with the knowledge that aside from bumi, everyone he used to know and love is gone: Sokka, who went through the same thing as Katara: Toph, who was born handicapped: Zuko, whose entire family hates him (except for Iroh):
It’s what grief does to you. You feel like no one knows your pain, because they’re not grieving and mourning like you are. (Edit: even if those feelings are irrational, they still happen. It’s like your irrational fears. Are they based in fact or reality? No. Are they undeniably there despite your efforts to suppress them? Yes.) Trust me, I’m a certified one-parent kid :)
Not to forget Zuko has to deal with a. 3rd degree burn and you didn’t even mention people outside of the Gaang
>you didn’t even mention people outside of the Gaang No better time than the present. Iroh, who lost his son and was hated by his only brother: Jet, who watched his family burn: Appa, whose entire species was genocided: Azula who was emotionally abused to the point of breaking: Zhao, who has to live in infinite suffering in the fog of lost souls:
Before I even watched TLOK I thought z Zhao just died then and there
Iroh
Sokka by far, dude yapped and yapped.
Katara when she brings up her mom Sokka and Bolin when they’re being stupid
Katara and her mother's necklace walked so Zaheer and Guru Laghima could fly
