Jesus can we not refer to a native character as a savage? This is just mask-off racism

It is just a fic title...

It’s a fic title with a racial slur calling Korra a savage

I do not think author meant anything bad

"Medieval AU: A wanderer from the Southern Tundra is swept up in the affairs of a spoiled noble. Slow Burn korrasami. Forbidden Romance."

That’s still racist? And I checked the fic, it’s filled with nothing but racist stereotypes. The path to hell is paved with good intentions.

Edit: Like seriously. It’s packed with every racist stereotype in the book. Korra gets called a mongrel, a barbarian, the author keeps on fetishizing her for her dark skin, Bolin and Asami are described as white instead of Asian for some reason, the random making of Korra to be an archer and the pan-Indian racism… why the fuck is there a random teepee? It’s just… Jesus.

Wtaf.

I had a feeling it would be racism all the way down but good lord.

It’s so bad. I don’t know who watched LOK and went “This would be so much better if Asami was racist and constantly degrading Korra and calling her slurs!”
