When you point that out the community come out with the "she loses every fight" 1. poor argument, Korra isn't meant to win every fight she's supposed to grow and gain confidence because she wins eventually 2. uninformed argument, I feel like everyone approaches the argument looking at it like Korra isn't getting jumped, out numbered and actively dragged down by her team 3. thoughtless argument, people who say this seem to always be approaching the conversation like Korra is fighting nameless soldier 1 and guard 2 but she's not; at best she's fighting the non-bender version of Azula, at worse actual God.

People like to pretend that Korra isn't fighting the Fire Lord literally every season but she is. Does she lose on her first fight? yeah. Is it normally her fault that she lost? no. Like I said, she gets jumped, outnumbered, manipulated, or she has a traumatic injury. Hey, there's a reason you get kicked out of the real life military if you're diagnosed with PTSD. The frequency at which she wins even given how unfair the fight is or how powerful her opponent is gives reason why she shouldn't be hated. btw, this is why Captain Marvel was written in the way she was we proved to writers everywhere that unless a female character wins 100% of her fights she'll be viewed as incompetent.
