This Was So Well Written And Explained. If You Seriously Don’t Understand Pro Team Ironman, Please

Arthur: *does something stupid*

Uther: Merlin how could you let him do this?

Merlin:

Broke: Merlin is a royalist because he is a class traitor boot licker

Woke: Merlin is a royalist because he was raised a peasant in the sixth century and he has the perspective and values typical of that time period on top of his personal experiences with Arthur to give him faith in the enlightened despotism favored by Catherine the Great and Frederick of Prussia.

Bespoke: Merlin is a royalist because anyone who had to live through both the English Civil War and Voltaire's exile to Britain would come out the other side thinking democracy is stupid.

Transcendent: Merlin is not a royalist. He is the divine right of kings in human form. The avatar of Albion and its magic. He does not believe in kings because of Arthur. He believes in Arthur so Arthur gets to be king.

do you ever just find a song that is everything that you never needed and you’re just listening for the first time and you tear up and you have to stop everything and just listen because you feel your soul heal just a little bit?

OH MY GOD

HE'S LITERALLY ASKING HIS SON'S BOYFRIEND WHY HIS SON ISN'T GAY ANYMORE I'M DYING

Gwaine: Listen up, lads, I've got a great idea-

Elyan: No.

Gwaine: You didn't even let me-

Lancelot: No.

Gwaine: But I-

Percival: No.

Gwaine: *gasp* Et tu, Percy?

Leon: *grabs Gwaine by the tunic and points at the sign on the wall*

Leon: You see that? "It Has Been 27 Days Since Our Last Disaster." Three more days, and Guinevere will make us cake.

Leon, shaking Gwaine for emphasis: And - I - want - that - cake.

So I go into the “Tony Stark Defense Squad” tag looking for some good “Tony Stark Defense Squad” posts, and I come out with anti-Tony’s running around about the “evil Tony Stark solely creating Ultron and the poor, sweet, innocent Wanda being blamed for doing nothing wrong.”

Here’s the thing that anti-Tony people absolutely refuse to acknowledge:

There is a massive difference between what Ultron was originally supposed to be and what Ultron became.

I just realized another difference between MCU Tony and Steve.

Steve since the day one thought of himself as a better man. As a person who was better than people around him, a person meant for great things, but who ultimately lacked the power to properly stand against the people he saw as bullies. Thanks to that, he was never driven by the idea to be a better person, because he already thought himself to be a better person since the beginning.

Tony on the other hand never saw himself as a better person, not truly. He may have felt proud of his accomplishments, his intellect, his tech, but it never made him feel as a better man than everybody around him, and Afghanistan only made him admit how flawed he was and how much he needed to change. Thanks to that, he was always driven by the idea to be a better person, because he knew he was not perfect, and his mistakes had real consequences.

Not being aware of your own flaws is a flaw all on itself. That’s why MCU Steve Rogers rubs me wrong. Because he is not aware of his own shortcomings as a person, and he lives in an illusion that he is the better man who was always meant to become great and do great things. He thinks himself flawless, while he is full of flaws.

I actually remember reading this on the anti Wanda maximoff tag some time ago,but it really made an impact.the post was talking about how Wanda stans/tony antis shit on tony for trying to kill Bucky(which he wasn't bc he would have destroyed him,we've all seen iron man 2 and 3.if he wanted you dead you'd be dead)but like rabidly support Wanda and her revenge.

When I said I wanted more female representation in the MCU, this was not what I meant.

Honestly, Wanda stans give me a worse headache than cap stans. At least with Cap stans, Ik they’re just falling for that stupid USA propaganda. Other than being fooled by her white woman tears™️, idk wtf is wrong with her stans.

Wanda fully aware chose to join Hydra, a neo-nazi organization, as an adult, just because they were offering her “revenge” on Tony Stark, which makes her a fucking neo-nazi. She consciously decided to use her powers to mind-rape the Avengers. She actively decided to send the Hulk on a rampage to kill innocent civilians. She actively supported Ultron up until she realized she was one of the fucking humans he was going to wipe out, which makes her joining the Avengers a conflict of interest at best and pure self preservation/manipulation at worst. And all of that is just Avengers: Age of Ultron.

Later, she murders POC innocent civilians because she has no control over her powers, then gets upset and throws a fit when Tony says, “hey, maybe you shouldn’t be on life-or-death missions when you can’t control your powers”. Imagine if someone who didn’t know how to use a gun waltzed into the middle of a highly stressful mission in the middle of civilian ground with a machine gun, murdered innocent people, then got upset that they had to face consequences.

Then she throws a fit when someone suggests her microwave boyfriend’s life is less important than millions of innocent civilians, and with Cap’s support, thousands of Wakandans (black Africans) are killed, for nothing might I add considering she did a shit job and Thanos still got a hold of Vision’s stone, and half of the universe is snapped.

And woe is she, so she loses control of her powers, again, and enslaves a whole fucking city. But she didn’t know! So when she finds out that she’s hurting all of them, she throws another fit and forces them to continue playing along with her little fantasy.

And not once has she ever learned from any of her mistakes. Not once has she been humbled. Not once has she been forced to face the consequences of her actions. In fact, for her mistakes, others are punished.

But it’s alright. All of this is alright. She’s grieving and traumatized after all. Right? Because Tony Stark killed her parents with his bomb when she was a child.

Cry me a river. Why doesn’t she try to get revenge on the terrorists that deployed the bombs? Why does she actively choose to be an entitled cunt and put thousands of POC lives at risk? Why does she join a fucking neo-nazi organization?

Imagine going “oh I’m sad, I’ll join the KKK to feel better”.

But Tony is rich and she’s a white woman and she cries on screen.

And that, right there, is their logic I guess.

There was nothing actually wrong half the time, he just thought it was funny.

But then when they get upset, so that no one figures him out- he tells them their panicking inadvertently helped them avoid the terrible thing .

Cass knows and backs him up.

Everyone believes Cass.

Duke can see a few moments into the future but will deliver it in the most needlessly cryptic way

Jason and Bruce are arguing. Just before Jason storms off, Duke says, "If you walk out that door, you will experience unforeseeable pain and have no one but yourself to blame"

And Jason's all, "Stay out of this, Narrows"

Then he trips over his shoelace and Duke's like, "Told you so"

It’s funny how the antis blame Tony for “sending his friends to the Raft” like…bestie he was trying so hard to prevent that from even happening in the first place 💀 they literally CHOSE to not show up for Vienna and break international border laws like what were they actually expecting?

exactly! tony literally offers to intercept team cap because he knows it is either he does it or it is a bunch of soldiers who would not hesitate to spray bullets at them should they resist. in addition, team cap is full of adults who chose to break the law by violating international boundaries (even steve warns them that they are on the wrong side of the law should they follow him and they proceeded to follow him; and yes, wanda is an adult. if y’all also want to bitch at tony for bringing in a 14-year-old to web up team cap, i hope y’all extend the grace towards steve for bringing in a “kid” for that mission in lagos).

let us not even consider the accords at all in this case because i doubt they had been made into law (or whatever international bills become) due to the bombing of the un quarters, they were aiding a wanted man (innocent or not, you can be arrested for just that; and the government did have reasons to be scared of bucky given his history as the winter soldier) and they were illegally crossing borders to do just that.

that’s why i find it funny to see team cap stans, clint and scott bitching at tony for “throwing” them into the raft. like, my family in christ, y’all are there because you knowingly violated international boundaries 💀.

p.s: this is not a post arguing about the morality of the raft or the accords, go do that shit else where. my point is you cannot break the law while fully aware of what could happen and then blame others when the consequences smack you right in the fucking face.
