Avatar: Seven Havens cartoon pushes LGBT ideology

A few weeks ago, a writer at the Federalist said the most recent followup to the Last Airbender cartoon is pushing LGBT ideology on children:
Forcing LGBT ideology onto children is not a new phenomenon for Hollywood. So, it wasn’t exactly surprising when Paramount’s latest show for kids attempted to do just that.

On Friday, the company’s Paramount Plus streaming service debuted its new Avatar: Seven Havens series. Set within the Avatar universe, the animated show takes place in a post-apocalyptic world where the avatar — who can bend the elements of water, earth, fire, and air — is branded the enemy. The program follows the journey of Pavi and Nisha, twin sisters who discover that they’re twin avatars and must hide their abilities.

Seven Havens is a sequel to The Legend of Korra (2012-2014), which followed the original (and beloved) Avatar: The Last Airbender series (2005-2008). Seven Havens and Korra are rated PG, while The Last Airbender is rated TV-Y7, according to IMDb.

Seven Havens introduces viewers to a variety of new characters in its three-episode premiere. Among these is Jae, a male airbender who serves as a guardsman on the bending force tasked with protecting the city of Ellora, where the series takes place.

The show’s LGBT indoctrination rears its head in the third episode, when viewers learn that Jae is dating his fellow guardsman Datu. In one scene, Jae is escorting Pavi and Nisha back to the city’s compound before he gets abruptly stopped and embraced by Datu. Seeking to protect the girls from potential harm, Jae quickly lies about their true identities before kissing Datu on the cheek as he leaves.
The Korra cartoon also had allusions to LGBT ideology towards the end, and if these particular cartoons are indeed aimed at children, it's enough at this point to feel hugely disappointed and disgusted at how Hollywood approached animation decades earlier, because arguably, it led to a whole situation in modernity where, instead of proving seriously that they can market cartoons for adults too, they exploit the whole medium for kiddie indoctrination. What's the use of even having a cartoon industry if this was all they could think of doing over the years, pushing the vast majority of animated TV shows and films for children while failing to prove they had the courage to build it up for adult consumption too. Of course, even today, long after the industry seemingly produced more for adults, they still fail to demonstrate the same kind of sophistication Japanese animation does. Then again, does anime's industry prove much better? They can be pretty crude and offensive too in their own way, sometimes even worse when they put acts of sexual abuse into their scripts for cheap sensationalism, which understandably damaged the perception of anime, resulting in a form of counterpart for the downside of modern USA animation.

For now, I think the whole Airbender franchise is decidedly long out of fuel, and the recent case of their DEI voice casting didn't help matters either. Perhaps if somebody could at least show the audacity to market for adults instead, then there'd at least be some justification for this nonsense.
