#wanda is not a villain

[unhingedmarvelandclassicwhobuff]

😬😬😬😬

I could rant for hours on end about how much I despise every single aspect of the Blip, but I'll limit myself to saying that yes, Tony indirectly insisting that the trillions of people who undoubtedly died as collateral damage in the Snap should just stay dead is, in my opinion, the single most evil thing he ever did. Also, I think Bruce deserves at least some of the blame for actually listening to him.

And yeah, while I love Clint, I can't stand what Endgame did to him, and the fact that he is never called out is insane.

Wanda is not and should never be a villain.

Reminder that Vicky was so terrifying that she traumatized three all powerful magic beings, one of which repressed her so hard that he thought he made her up like the goddamn Boogeyman

To anyone saying that Wanda trying to kill Monica here is a sign of evil, remember that as far as she knows Monica is a loyal agent of SWORD, and her being here might mean that they’ve found a way in.

And before anyone says that Monica saying “the only lies I told are the ones you put in my mouth” should’ve been a dead giveaway to Wanda that she is puppeting the townsfolk, a) she isn’t listening to a word Monica is saying, b) she STILL doesn’t know she is even capable of doing that, and c) Agatha steps in and ends the confrontation before Monica can make Wanda see reason.

Even her saying “maybe I already am [the villain]” is not an admission of guilt like so many think it is: it’s her resigning herself to always being used as a scapegoat even when she isn’t the problem (she is in this case, but again, she is still not totally aware of that).

It amazes me how many people try to paint Wanda as a villain in this scene, when:

a) she is not actually hurting Vision at all.

b) despite that, it clearly pains her to be doing this to him

c) she is escaping from unlawful imprisonment. What is evil about that?

Even her iconic “I can’t control their fear, only my own” line is her way of saying that she is done listening to what the public thinks of her and is deciding to be a hero despite their condemnation.

Not to get too involved in discourse but “Agatha is a deeply traumatized person who is acting out of a place of hurt and deserves sympathy for the pain she's had to endure and understanding that the majority of her wrongdoings were committed out of desperation for survival” and “Intention doesn’t erase outcome and her pain doesn't undo the trauma and horror she's committed against others; her victims don't owe her forgiveness before redemption and it is reasonable for people who know nothing about her past to distrust her based on her reputation and the persona she displays” are both true statements that can coexist.

Please remember that "morally gray" means a person is neither good nor bad. Please do not reduce this incredibly complex character to entirely evil or entirely innocent because she is neither. She has done truly terrible, unforgivable things and is also a victim of cruelty and injustice. Let her be both.

No one wants to talk about how horrendously the MCU has been treating and characterizing Wanda Maximoff since Civil War. And that is largely because the majority of MCU fans are Tony stans and/or have never even read a Wiki page for the 616 or 1610, let alone a comic book.

It’s so weird to me that some people put at least part of the blame for Peri’s behavior and mistakes on Jorgen. Yes, he may be responsible for his attitude towards work and rules, but certainly not for his attitude towards Dev himself.

Some compare Dev to Timmy and wonder why Peri didn't cheer him up then on his birthday(after all, he could have seen his brother Timmy in him). And they forget that 13-14 WHOLE years have passed (and 20 years in total). His personality could have changed beyond recognition since he was a child. Yes, yes, children tend to grow up and change depending on their upbringing and environment (and sometimes not always for the better). That's why I'm so interested to know what kind of childhood Irep and Peri had.

Peri was raised by loving and caring parents who often see only the good in him. And Irep was also raised by parents who love and care but are more distant, giving him more personal space. And if Cosmo and Wanda mostly see only the good in Peri, A.Wanda and A.Cosmo mostly see only the bad in Irep. But not in the way that many might think. After all, they are anti-fairies. So.. of course they saw him as their distributor of chaos (lovingly). While at school and everyone else saw only the bad in Irep, but already in a negative way for him. Irep always lived with the thought deep in his head that he was only the worst half of his fairy counterpart and all the time tried to prove the opposite. Therefore, he constantly tried to present himself in the best light in his typical manner…

The vicious cycle of thinking about Wanda.

They got beef with a zoomer

[vintagegoddess12]

Do you think Evanora had to wait until Agatha’s 18 before she can get tried at the stake?

Do you think she had a countdown for when she’s planning to put her own daughter down?

Do you think she framed Agatha to stole knowledge above her station so she can have a reason to burn her?

Do you think she set her up then the way she set her up now with her new coven?

[unhingedmarvelandclassicwhobuff]

This scene right here is the smoking gun for the argument about how aware Wanda was about what she was doing to Westview. Many will say that she is told to her face that she is holding them hostage, and... yeah she is. But look at who says that to her: Tyler Hayward and Monica Rambeau. The former violated her lover’s will and desecrated his corpse, denying her closure with him and setting this whole ordeal in motion. And as far as she knows the latter is fully on Hayward’s side, so she has absolutely no reason to believe either of them, especially since she has no idea she is even capable of doing such a thing. That’s not even beginning to go into what her mental state is like, as while there is nothing concrete in the series itself, her actions only make sense if she is having a mental breakdown on top of her sudden burst of new powers (because you would think Vision saying the exact same thing later on would make her ask some questions).

The way the scene is framed clearly wants you to think Wanda knows she is in full control and her ignorance later on is only a facade, but for the sake of audience intrigue key details that would recontextualize everything were not revealed until later.

On a Very Special Episode

Is it bad if I say these two are my two most favourite characters in the show?

[bthehufflepuff208]

Last night I realized another awful scenario if the rumors of RDJ’s Doctor Doom is a variant of Tony Stark becoming Doom…….

We all know Wanda is coming back to life; she is the darling of MCU female characters, the ultimate “girl boss” to the majority of fans.

What if the plan is when Wanda comes back, she comes back to destroy Doctor Tony Stark-Doom?

It won’t even be about defeating the villain of Doctor Doom; it’ll truly be about Wanda finally being able to prove Tony Stark was always the evil villain she said he was and finally being able to get her revenge for her family.

And only then, after he’s killed, the real Doctor Doom of the MCU will come in.

Like, the sole purpose of bringing RDJ back was just to not only push the narrative of “Tony Stark was always the villain of every universe”, but also “Wanda, no matter how much murder and mind control/manipulation she’s done, was always the true hero of the MCU and always knew the true evil of Tony Stark.”

……….

WHY can’t you just bring in the real Victor Von Doom immediately (whether it be a Romani actor or Cillian Murphy)

WHY must we continue to push the “evil villain Tony Stark” and “girl boss, most powerful/wonderful hero Wanda Maximoff”? Most fans believe that narrative anyway!

I would LOVE to see RDJ back in the MCU…….but how about not with the overused plot of “any Tony Stark is a villain and causes all the problems of the MCU”

You know what would be a good idea? Maybe bring RDJ back as Tony Stark/Iron Man from a world where every one trusted him from the beginning of becoming Iron Man.

A world where maybe, just maybe, Thanos failed the first time around because the Avengers didn’t immediately dismiss Tony when he warned them of what was coming!!!!

But noooooo, fans don’t want to see that! They want to see more of the same narrative they’ve been pushing since the beginning even though there are so many moments that prove that narrative to be false that writers/directors/fans choose to ignore!
