Bending always existing doesn't make it right. Thats the same as people saying "well we've always done it this way" in response to things
I had this long speech written but I realized I could simplify it by saying this: there's a reason 5 benders sit on the council for republic city and why all it's officers of the law are benders. Imagine a world where only white people could be politicians and cops. Don't you think everyone else would be a lite bit upset?
I'm wiling to say bending causes more harm than the harm it fixes. The sheer separation it drives through benders and non benders is terrible.
Do we know all the members of the council are benders? I thought we only knew that they represented their respective tribe or nation.
