Kuvira was never planning to only fix cities that were broken. She wanted to take over everything. Zaofu, Republic City, everything. She would eventually conquer the entire world. No balance there.

2021-04-08 01:26:49 +0000 UTCWhile Kuvira isn't a good person that would be defined by charity and generosity, it's hard to really call her a bad person either as she is definitely not using brute force to conquer these areas which would be her forcing them to comply or she will destroy them with her army. If she was actually using brute force, then other nations would step in. The reality is that Kuvira did not create the situation in the Earth kingdom, she didn't cause the resource shortages or all of the bandits. As far as we know she is literally a private citizen with no obligation to help anyone, going out and using her own raised armies and resources to protect states. You can certainly argue that she should help a state out for no reason as a good person, but it's hard to call her a bad person for not giving things away for free. If the governor didn't want her to help then she wouldn't have done anything to him, and if he wanted her services then he needed to pay for them -- it's predatory because she's taking advantage of them being on the brink of collapse, but it is still just basic business.

2021-04-04 22:17:50 +0000 UTCShe's definitely using brute force and other underhanded tactics; her ideologies are inspired by authoritarianism and fascism, a stark contrast to Zaheer's "for the people" anarchism and anti-establishmentism. Personally anybody in fiction who demands to be hailed in any form is a big no no for me.

2021-04-04 03:58:12 +0000 UTCSo i'll admit they're cool but I was never really enamored with Amon or Zaheer's ideals like a lot of Avatar fans are (no ones in the Unalaq club, he sucks) but on the other hand i stan Kuvira! The Earth Kingdom is broken apart and someone needs to put it back together. It may be tough but her job isn't to run a charity; she's re-creating stability, cooperation and unity between the states of the Earth Kingdom. She isn't taking over by brute force, though she's strong enough too; but she's also not giving away her support and leverage for free. You got the time skip you asked for! Kai's little bison Lefty has grown so much! I hope carrying everyone out of the temple last season didn't give him that hunch back. The baby Rohan is now bigger; Jinorah Re-grew her hair over her tattoos; Ikki has grown a lot but the biggest change is Milo the boy now becoming Milo the man!!!! Kora's haircut is cute and its good she's walking but clearly she's still struggling to be as strong as she once was.

2021-04-03 19:47:16 +0000 UTCThe earth kingdom was left in disarray after the earth queen was wiped out last season. In case you missed it, president Raiko assured Prince Wu that Kuvira was stabilizing the earth kingdom. So at some point in the last 3 years, Kuvira set out to do that :) This is an amazing season, can't wait for more :D
