yknow its so funny how i started watching the marvel movies abt 2 years ago and like, Everyone i knew was neck deep into this shit. everybody told me that i would love tony like, oh he starts off bad but he gets better i promise you, he is amazing he is the best character, etc. and i was like okayy i like a good redemption arc AND THATS HOW THEY LITERALLY SPUN IT TO ME so i was expecting like. redemption . and so i saw iron man 1 and i was like okay i dont like him really at all but i can perhaps see where a redemption arc is going . and then as time went on he just got worse.... literally the moment he became irredeemable to me was in avengers 1 when they were all meeting up and he called steve capsicle or whatever. like ok haha thats his sense of humor, belittling others with quick snarky comments haha so hilarious 🤪, but like. BRO . steve crashed that plane to save millions of people, fully expecting to die. only to wake up 70 years later out of the ice and find himself in a completley unfamiliar world in which he has nothing left for him, because everything and everyone he knew was gone or changed beyond recognition. it is an extremely fucked up situation he’s put in, and considering this is avengers 1, also something very recent and something fresh that he is definitely struggling with. it is fucked up to mock him for that in such a dismissive and belittling was as “capsicle.” yes haha funny quip sure but it is an ASSHOLE move. and then he kept trying to provoke bruce to become the hulk (which is fucked for two reasons, 1. you shouldnt be purposefully provoking people anyway and 2. does he not realize the consequences? he literally just wants hulk to rampage and destroy shit and potentially kill people? and 3. he does this literally just for his own entertainment. he doesnt care about bruce nor does he care about anyone else who may be harmed)
like avengers 1 i was pissed at tony the entire fucking time that when he saved ny at the end it was just like.. okay . whatever i guess. you’re still an asshole (and lets not forget that steve did that same thing before, except he actually did sacrifice his life for it, it just didnt result in him dying - BUT SURE lets ONLY praise tony for what he did)
iron man 3 got my hopes up that tony would get better. we finally saw that ptsd he apparently has that everyone irl talked about. and it was very interesting seeing him like.... vulnerable. everybody trashes iron man 3 but honestly out of the iron man movies, its my favorite jsut because tony is actually fucking tolerable LMFAO
then after iron man 3 it goes out the window. and then thats when i really started like witnessing the mcu fandom and the over the top tony stans are so fucking annoying. theyre so fucking annoying. and then in real life if i dared to utter the words “i dont like tony stark” i literally would get an entire room of people yelling at me. like what the fuck is going on? god forbid i dont like some asshole billionaire white guy who constantly mocks over people’s trauma and insecurities, has no regard for other peoples lives or feelings, constantly makes mistakes but always shifts the blame to other people somehow .. etc. god forbid i like the character who was a disabled kid in brooklyn fighting for whats right, who jumped on a grenade to protect the other soldiers who didnt even like him in order to save their lives, who underwent the supersoldier project thing so he could fight nazis, who crashed a plane into the arctic to save millions of lives because if he didnt crash it himself it would destroy new york city, who woke up 70 years in the future and still fought for whats right and never stops, whose motto is “i can do this all day” LIKE SORRY . LOL!
