#iw rant

[fandom-rants]

You can’t help but love the juxtaposition

the Anti-Tony Stark / Pro-Wanda Maximoff fandom is just like the real world, because like

no one cares about the black deaths and destruction at Johannesburg

no one cares about the black deaths and destruction at Lagos

no one cares about the black deaths and destruction at Wakanda during IW

but everyone cares about the white deaths and destruction at Sokovia

The very fact that Steve got to come right on in and just take command all over again in Infinity War, no repercussions, no apologies, no changes, still pisses me off to this day.

Tony Stark: makes reparations for things that are arguably not even his fault in every single movie he's in

Wanda Maximoff: never makes reparations and only shows remorse for lagos for .2 seconds

Steve Rogers: never makes reparations and never thinks he has to

Dumbasses on Tumblr: TONY IS SUCH A DICK WHEN IS HE GOING TO TAKE ReSPoNsiBIlitY

Wanda should actually have people trying to kill her. Like, we should see it on-screen. She got an entire movie to do atrocious things in the name of getting revenge on Tony for something Obadiah and a bunch of terrorists did. Why not watch her have to take responsibility for once? Where’s the parent of a Wakandan victim to try to take the life of the witch who blew up her son? Where’s the teenagers from Johannesburg teaming together to take down the woman who raged out the Hulk? Where’s the grieving person demanding justice for their dead loved one? Why is it only Tony?

poor Vision didn’t even get the chance to have a personality before Wanda got her claws into him

Infinity War: /Wanda, looking sad and desolate, turns to dust/

Me: /applauds/

People keep talking about how Infinity War showed Wanda at her best, but it showed her:

Not having lost a single thing or faced a single consequence for any of her choices

Not wanting to help when aliens invade, but instead telling Vision that they could just run away

Ignoring Vision's arguments and autonomy when he decided to die to save the universe (something Peter Quill did not do, showing the difference between a healthy and an unhealthy relationship)

Putting her own wants and desires first until it was too late

Only acting heroically at the last second, and only at Vision's REPEATED insistence

Yeah, I'm not really seeing it.

“Hey, f-r, are you looking forward to the second part of Infinity War?”

Only if they keep Wanda dead and throw Steve in jail.
