Umm? Not for nothing but... If Piotr is a pedophile. Wouldn't that make Kitty a Lolita?

[QUOTE=Glio;4982569]I'm sure there was a lot of grief when the P5 started giving everyone free energy, clean water and free food.
Well yes, some millionaires must have been upset.[/QUOTE]
A huge part of AvX that people overlook is that the Avengers were desperate for public approval since they were getting more flack than usual. Vilifying “the muties” by constantly attacking them until they broke, reinforcing the fears people already had, so the Avengers could swoop in and save the day is a pretty good way to do it. The Avengers were scared of being obsolete so they took out their [I]superior[/I] replacements.

Just before AvsX, Cap was like this

I suppose America seeking a war with a much smaller nation to divert attention from more important issues is an intrinsic part.
[QUOTE=GenericUsername;4982463]Karens are white women that get authorities on poc to get their way. Wanda is Romani, Scott is white. This isn't that type of situation.[/QUOTE]
In this case, the authorities are the Avengers and the PoC are the mutants.
So yes. Wanda is a Karen.

Apocalypse.
Mr. Sinister.
The X-men are perfectly fine with these people.
You don't see the Avengers letting Ultron and Red Skull take leadership positions on the team without so much as a light scolding.[/QUOTE]
Nah they just let the dude who created Ultron AND chick who caused MDay on the team
[QUOTE=Will Evans;4981822]Because Wanda is a hot chick.
If she were ugly it would be different.[/QUOTE]
Yuuuup

I never bothered to read their titles at the time but man that makes them the more vile holy shit.
Wich issues can I use as reference?

Two people who unintentionally did bad things vs super-villains who do the things the former do deliberately and would do it again in a heartbeat. One of which had to be convinced not to kill a defenceless puppy for a magical sacrifice ritual.

Nope.

How do the X-men who fought the PF fit into this? This "Karen" meme is tiresome, I'd think the X-men wouldn't like encouraging sexist memes.
karen isnt sexist, it realy isnt
It really isn't. It's term, like Becky, was created by people within the black community to combat the nosy and racist white women that try to make life difficult for them. Karens and Beckys have earned it. They need to put down their phones and leave the manager alone.

It's engineered to tear down women, which got amplified. It's not harmless fun.

I hate how Marvel has turned the Avengers into the universal police force, but Wanda didn't call them, lol. She was too amnesiac to do that.

Things like that are written by white women. And not at all why the term was created. They want to make it sexist so people stop calling them out on their racism.

The funny thing is that the article writer mentions “Chad” but glosses right over it. Even though it’s older and more widely known than Karen.
That’s such a Karen thing to do.

Chad, Karen, Becky... it's all stupid garbage, like most memes. They're jokes that nobody actually finds funny, but everyone tells because they're desperate to fit in with the other people that are telling them and have some sense of belonging to something.
