#Wanda Maximoff Apologist

[katethewriter]

the petty part of me doesn't want wanda to have a happy ending tbh... i wish that they stayed separated for a LONG(er) time before (maybe) getting back together.

Awww, but she’s sorry 🥺

Honestly, I get that. I think there’s at least a year’s gap between Natasha leaving and then Wanda doing what she do, maybe more. She’s been wallowing a while

Literally just give Wanda therapy and a universe where her kids are orphans or something and she'd never bother anyone ever again I don't see what the problem is here

what bugs me is that people will say they hate wanda because ‘she joined hydra voluntarily’ but ignore the fact that she and her brother were orphaned in a war in their country, grieving and traumatized, and were most likely groomed and radicalized by right-wing terrorists who capitalized on their traumatic experiences and used them to fuel their anger and hate the way they wanted them to feel it, towards the enemies they wanted them to hate

they were just kids, scared and angry and looking for something to give them purpose and to belong, and hydra used that to turn them into human weapons by literally experimenting on them with extremely powerful objects that in all likelihood they knew nothing about and didn’t know what they were actually doing to them

#personal #you can't voluntarily join a fascist terrorist group if you're a kid!! that's grooming and radicalization!! #anyway i am a wanda maximoff apologist always #she has never done anything wrong ever in her life

I’m only gonna say this once, the scariest part of Dr. Strange Multiverse of Madness was Dr. Strange’s third eye. The cgi third eye freaks me out way more than anything. No it’s not when Wanda soloed the Illuminati covered in the blood of the robot army, not when she cracked Charles Xavier like a glow stick in her alternate self’s mind while looking like a demon, or even when she drags that broken copy of her after Christine, America, and Dr. Strange. It’s gross dudes it’s just gross.

Hi there.

We've never spoken before, but as you can see from my username, we have at least two common interests.

Anyway, I'd like to talk to you about Wanda Maximoff. I've made it no secret that I am an avid defender of hers, despite the many, many bad things she has done.

I suppose my first question is, do you think MCU Wanda is still redeemable after everything she has done, especially recently? Personally I really want to believe that she is.

My second question is a lot more heavy: since you seem to be a fan of Elizabeth Olsen and her Wanda, you have doubtlessly heard people say that she is whitewashed. I've seen numerous people say that, and these are just a few examples:

There's also this one YouTube video that I've been trying to get help analyzing, but apparently video links aren't allowed in asks. Sad.

At any rate, what do you think? Do these accusations hold water? Is MCU Wanda whitewashed? Is Elizabeth Olsen a racist? Is it wrong to be a fan of the character like these people seem to think?

To be absolutely clear, I don't want to believe any of the questions I just asked, but the cynic in me is forced to consider all the arguments.

Hey there, fellow Wanda apologist, pleased to meet you.

Is she redeemable? That’s gonna be a your mileage may vary thing. Everyone has different thresholds of what they’re willing to forgive, and it depends on the writing. To me, the telling thing is Professor X, and them very blatantly stealing his line from Days of Future Past. “Just because someone stumbles and loses their way, doesn’t mean they’re lost forever.” That line is very telling that they’re at least leaving open the possibility of a redemption arc. To me, personally, yes, she is. The comics redeemed her after similarly catastrophic events, or they at least tried to. Some people bought it, some people didn’t, and that’s what I see with MCU Wanda’s future.

I will say that MoM majorly fucked over Wanda’s character development. Apparently the original pitch for the movie was the bits we see in the trailer: her teaming up with Strange to make up for Westview, and not having her bad turn until later. Then 2020 happened, stuff got delayed, Wandavision blew up, and, according to the commentary track on the flick, the creatives on that movie decided that they wanted to be the ones who got to shoot all the fun, scary, Wanda goes evil stuff, so they reworked the script. And while I get that theoretically, on a selfish level, I get the impulse….you idiots went and broke all her character development from Wandavision.

The whole point of Wandavision was that she messed up, she did the bad thing, then she undid the bad thing. It doesn’t undo the trauma she caused, but at least she was—supposedly—aware that this path she was on wasn’t sustainable. The thing would’ve made so much more sense if Wanda starts MoM on a path of helping Strange and America Chavez, then sees all these different universes where she’s happy with her kids, and that sets her backward. Because who wouldn’t see that and want that happiness? She’s still recovering from like…her entire damn life, it would make sense for her to backslide there. But having her start out the movie in evil mode just kinda…undid Wandavision’s whole finale, thanks guys.

But anyway.

They wrote themselves into a corner there. Do I think they’re gonna try to write themselves out of it and give her a redemption arc at some point? Yeah, I think we’ll get it down the line, and it’ll be too little too late for some people no matter what happens, and that’s fine. I will personally still love the character, while acknowledging that she did some absolutely terrible thing. Or, in the words of a friend who says stuff much more concisely than me: "If we can forgive Tony 'sold WMDS for funsies for years' Stark we can forgive Wanda "The darkhold took over my mind along with grief" Maximoff"

And now, the hornet’s nest.

Is she whitewashed? Yes, absolutely. Does that mean that you, or anyone else who likes the character is trash? No. You are allowed to acknowledge that something is flawed/has issues, and still enjoy it. Tumblr will tell you otherwise, but you are never going to find the perfect, Unproblematic Thing, that was written by the perfect, unproblematic person, and has no questionable aspects to it, or the people behind it. It isn’t happening, sorry guys.

As to Elizabeth Olsen being a racist: She didn't know who she was cast as until she'd signed a contract, so even if she wanted to back out that's a no-go.  You sign on these things for multiple movies, for millions of dollars. But I’m sure everyone who’s yelling at her for daring to work on these films is an expert in contract law.

The slurs: to my knowledge: Reportedly she's said gypsy twice, once in 2015 in an interview and once very recently in interview. Gypsy instead of Romani. The comics have been calling her gypsy for years, and we know Olsen’s read some of the comics, at least. Bad word choice all around. My personal feeling is that people slip up. I don’t know the woman, she might be an evil racist sociopath. Outside looking in? I think she’s used inappropriate terms before, without the intent to do harm, but she fucked up. I think the powers that be at Marvel—comics and movies—say gypsy in reference to her, so Olsen does the same thing at times.  

Again, every human being has problematic aspects. Celebrities are included in that. It’s your business to decide what’s forgivable and what’s not to you personally. All I know for sure is that every single person who shames strangers on the Internet has said or done something cancel-worthy, and every single one of us would look like terrible people if the Internet was able to put a microscope to everything we’ve ever done or said.

So anyway. It’s okay to like Wanda and want good things for her, while acknowledging that she’s done awful things. It’s okay to engage with the MCU’s take, while acknowledging that whitewashing absolutely happened. Tumblr will tell you otherwise, but you asked my opinion, this is my opinion.  It’s okay to like the character and not the actress. It’s okay to still like the actress and acknowledge that she’s done problematic things. It’s. Okay.

You aren’t poisoning the world by engaging with what you like in a way that you like, and anyone telling you otherwise isn’t saving it either.

I love you 14,000,605

by JustAQueerGamer

"I love you 3000!" Out of the fourteen million futures he had viewed back on Titan, around 3000 of them contained Morgan Stark. And in every one of them, Morgan Stark loved her father. An unbidden thought crossed his mind, as he and Stark walked across dark cement towards the doors of the Compound. I suppose I love him ‘14,000,605’, then.
