The WWTBWWTBAM family of game shows probably does not require a YMMV section. If there\'s a nearly-identical \'\'\'trope\'\'\', it should be moved there. If not, a page should be created.

Don\\\'t gotta like it, but needs must, as they say, when Vaatu drives. And Aang gave him the keys to the car.
\\\'\\\'\\\'Entirely on the basis that by accepting the right to gain the knowledge in the first place, they\\\'ll be hurting the feelings of the people who literally want to deprive an entire race or gender of the same rights and opportunities they have in the first place?\\\'\\\'\\\'
Entirely on the basis that it was Aang\\\'s decision to go along with Pakku in spite of his beliefs, and if he chooses to go against those beliefs because he doesn\\\'t agree with them he can\\\'t get upset when Pakku chooses to kick him to the curb.
If you knew Math Tutor of Doom was racist, why learn from him in the first place? But knowing he\\\'s racist, and knowing he would kick you to the curb, you still agree to work with him and you still go against him and then get upset when he does exactly that?
Got no one to blame but yourself. You might not like [=MToD\\\'s=] conditions, but you agreed to them in the first place so he has every right to dictate terms based on those conditions and he is not, therefore, wrong to do so, no matter how much you want him to be.
\\\'\\\'\\\'In any other country on this planet, she would be an equal citizen.\\\'\\\'\\\'
Different strokes and all that.

Not by the standards of the North. The place they are at. The place whose opinions currently matter. The place they can leave at any time with no love lost.
\\\'\\\'\\\'By your standard, Aang is in the wrong to fight the Fire Nation because they\\\'re simply practicing their right of global Manifest Destiny and they started the war under the belief they were helping people and who is Aang to stop them?\\\'\\\'\\\'
If Aang agreed to the Fire Nation\\\'s conditions in the first place, knowing full well the implications of such, and THEN decided to try to stop them, then yes. Otherwise no.
\\\'\\\'\\\'At the end of the day, Pakku didn\\\'t tell Aang not to teach Katara\\\'\\\'\\\'
As pointed out already, he didn\\\'t need to. It\\\'s implicit in his refusal to train Katara in the first place. Aang clearly recognizes it, which is why they train at night in the canals.
