People trust Kuvira to unite the Earth Kingdom and do all the dirty work in the same way Americans trusted Washington to beat up the Brits. The ones in power are not always the ones who do the fighting. Kuvira on the other hand very clearly wants power for herself but she seems to be hiding it rather well. Besides Raiko may have assured the Earth Prince his assistance if Kuvira did do any dirty business.
I wonder if Korra is holding back so as not to show she's the avatar or if she's lost some of her ability/skill/power from the events of the season finale.

Maybe they're out of the loop or deluded. Mako seemed to know about Kuvira having supporters after Wu. Them merely throwing pies was pretty odd though.I enjoy arguing about ethics. Plus she honestly hasn't done jack shit that was villainous in my eyes, other than strong-arming a state out of its resources which was hardly evil.
I never said her actions were morally good, just not actually villainous. She's hardly ****ing things up when she's objectively making things better.
Hmm, ok maybe.
I doubt Bolin would follow her if she was nothing but a power mad tyrant ruling through fear. I thought she came off as a well-intentioned extremist who's intense and forceful but otherwise quite pleasant. Maybe the Earth Kingdom actually needs those resources for rebuilding and defense.
Anybody else find it kind of a dick move to
Spoiler:
Show Korra at the last possible moment for like a brief second and then end the first episode there?
Or maybe, i'm just an impatient f-uck, who wants to see less of the character i don't care for and more of the one i actually do like.
Kuvira is a badass lady though, Kinda like a Lin Bei-Fong hell bent on ..... doing something?
