#the gall of the same bitches who claim to be too good for the mcu to nominate military propaganda the movie for BEST FUCKING PICTURE????

Recently, I have fallen out of love with the Stony or Steve Rogers/Tony Stark pairing.

The MCU introduced me to this pairing; it is a very fun and complicated pairing which I held dear. However, in light of recent events, MCU has also disillusioned me. No, rather, it pulled the veiled right off my eyes. It has always been at the back of my mind, but I ignored it. It kept nagging but I didn’t listen. I am ashamed to admit that it took watching my favourite character lied to and get beaten up as he was drowning in a pit of rage and grief by the same character I always thought—I always imagined would protect him, would choose him, would hold him more important above others.

The truth is: none of the original founding members of the MCU Avengers treated Tony Stark right.

The truth is, next to James Fucking Buchaman Barnes, Tony is the LAST choice. He is fucking COLLATERAL DAMAGE.

He is at the very bottom of the priority list of everyone else in that fucking team.

He is their doormat.

He is their scapegoat.

He is their source of everything but they don’t appreciate him.

This man cares so much, gives so much, yet no one can seem to see that and show him the same fucking courtesy.

I guess that’s the reason why I love Peter Parker so much. He looks at Tony like Tony hung the Moon, the Sun and the Stars in a purely platonic-son-to-potential-father-figure way. NO, I do not ship Starker nor will I ever. You cannot convince me. And the fact that pairing always seems to show up on my PINTREST dashboard is fucking frightening and annoying—mostly annoying. Peter looks at Tony’s beat and battered defensive asshole self and sees the best of him. He doesn’t take advantage of Tony’s love and kindness. He doesn’t expect, demand or take.

I ship Tony with Stephen Strange, not just because Stephen gave up the Time Stone to save his life, though I won’t lie, that’s one of them. They have similar backgrounds. They’ve been through similar experiences. I really believe they’d be able to understand each other. Stephen’s a narcissist like Tony, but he isn’t like the rest of the Avengers with their holier-than-thou crap. The view must be pretty nice all the way up their white horses, huh. Stephen is a narcissist but he knows he is flawed. He has been on top and knocked down to the bottom but he stood up again. Just like Tony. For all of their narcissism, their asshole-ness, their sass and snark, these two would be so good for each other. Tony can be his defensive- asshole-but-secretly-goes-beyond-what-is-sane-to-protect-his-loved-ones-self and Stephen would understand, hell Stephen would treat him the same. Stephen would give back as much as he is given. Stephen would call out all of Tony’s bullshit without the Avenger’s brand of superiority.

On an intellectual level, I understand the reason why Stephen gave up the Stone. But the fact that he DID, that he bet on Tony, that he put his fate in Tony, a person he has officially met for a couple of hours just overwhelms me; that much fate, with the entire universe hanging in the balance. He was able to trust Tony with those lives, the Avengers wouldn’t even trust Tony with their lives/freedom.

The Avengers are quick to turn on Tony when it best suits them.

Like in a fic I’ve read:

‘Natasha would sell me out for a pack of cigarettes and she doesn’t even smoke,’ – Tony Stark

That shit is one of the most accurate fanfic lines I have ever read.

The Avengers are quick to place the blame on him.

The Avengers are quick to use violence on him.

They choose to trust a Hydra agent with clear vendetta against Tony over him when she has showed disregard over lives, even theirs, if it suits her motives right. The fact that so much sympathy is given to this vindictive psychopath is beyond me.

They’ve blamed Tony over every mistake. They keep holding Tony’s mistake over him, yet they never acknowledge their own shit.

They claim Tony is arrogant, yet “The Best Hands Are Our Own” is not? Bitch that is some Hitler level Bullshit right there and people don’t seem to see it. I guess Steve didn’t just punch Hitler; he shared tea, cookies and similar ideals with him.

The Best Hands Are Never Our Own. NO ONE CAN CLAIM TO KNOW BEST. NO ONE. Simply because we are human. We are fallible. We have our own agenda. We have people/ideals we hold above others. Right, Rogers? “Till the end of the line”, right?

Even Thanos, a fucking Titan is a sane!nutcase.

Steve Rogers, no matter how much hype, how much people put him in a pedestal can’t claim to have the “Best Hands”. He has his own priorities; he has shown his own arrogance. He has shown that he would put his Bucky above others and if you have watched CA:CW and not see it, then go watch it again.

Steve Rogers knew the truth about the Starks’ death but he kept it from Tony. Not because he cared about Tony’s well being, but because he was scared Tony would go after his Bucky. That’s it. There is no other reason. Because he wanted to keep his Bucky safe. And he had the gall to talk about keeping secret to Tony when he was seating on the biggest one of all.

That Rogers, is obstruction of Justice, one of the ideals you ‘uphold’ so much, done by you in order to protect one man.

Wanda assisted and joined Ultron, and only switched sides when it became clear that everyone else, including theirs, and not only the Avengers were getting their asses killed. She sent the Hulk loose in a populated area. You might have been too blinded by the scene of Tony fighting the Hulk to see that but, that’s the truth. SHE SET THE HULK LOOSE ON A POPULATED AREA, WITHOUT REGARDS TO INNOCENT LIVES. You think Ultron got his psychopathic tendency from Tony? Who was it that was hell bent on murdering Tony and by extension the Avengers? Ultron was the collective of Tony, Bruce, the sceptre and Wanda. And we all know who is all MURDER!!!!! Between those four.

Every last ones of these characters are arrogant in their own way, have mistakes, have ‘blood on their ledgers’, and are pretty much flawed/fallible.

Then why is Tony Stark the only one hated? Why is he the only one made to suffer? To pay for his mistakes?

Well, Tony Haters, Steve Stans, Wanda Stans, Team Cap Stans...

Fuck you.
