Comparing a 12 year old who possibly saved the avatar cycle to a 20 year old who was repeat told not to trust someone by her parents, mentor/previous avatars son, still doing it learning the whole story giving him a second chance and messing up is wild
Tu put it more in context, Korra was lock down almost her entire life at this point. All other avatars travelled to learn the cultural connections to an element as this is thought to be best way of learning.
Korra was in a cage. Her dad, and the son of the previous avatar told her it was Aang's will, until she realized it was their own. Her own dad caged her up. I think it's wild for people not to be like Korra : mad at him and unable to trust him after that.
Also, the one who revealed it was actually the bad guy, but manipulation is one hell of a bitch, and Unalaq knew exactly what he was doing by revealing it all.
She still learned things from this experience, still did the right thing by turning on him when she realized he was messed up, he bested her in a fight and took advantage of it to rip off Ravaa, and people will still say it's her fault.
Her whole arc is to go from hot headed to more level headed, to grow as a person instead of growing her element mastering (like Aang).
I'm a bit sick of this whole Aang's mistake vs Korra's mistake + Korra bashing because she has a strong personality.
Korra has ADHA yes it took her a while to learn from her mistakes but she learned from them. She was trying to find the way to be the best avatar she could in her own way.
Sometimes people have to learn things the hard way.
