huh yeah you could say that almost anything but that's not the narrative here. Yes humanity's tools and discoveries can be repurposed as a good or bad thing. But the Sentinels are akin to a burning cross and for the most part humanity's cool with it....
Cassandra didn't reprogram it the Sentinels to do anything till after Genosha...all she had to do was convince the Trask cousin to do it
... no they weren't...smh

i think the point they were making is wanda gets named instead of just being the pretender, while casandra is left as mummudrai despite being the person who initiated the worst mutant massacre ever. personally when i read this i had to look up who or what a mummundrai was because i completely forgot it was a word for what cassandra is.
I remember that, eventually, the telepaths messed with Cassandra’s head by trying to give her a conscience. So she/it wasn’t held accountable because that, without a conscience, he/it couldn’t behave differently.
But, the same thing could said for Wanda: at the end of her rope, in a emotionally turmoil, could she behave differently from the way she did?
“Strength is the lot of but a few privileged men; but austere perseverance, harsh and continuous, may be employed by the smallest of us and rarely fails of its purpose, for its silent power grows irresistibly greater with time.” Goethe
also another point....and so what? Genosha had little to do with The Pretenders attempt at Genocide. Are her fans reeeeally that upset another mass Mutant murderer doesn't get a nickname? If so This isn't the thread to discuss it...but seems like a strawman
Uh Wanda had the considerable advantage of having been born with empathy
He says he just became the biggest mass murderer....she says he just sent 4 supersonic death machines to most densely populated Mutant area

oh im not saying she needs a nickname just that its noticeable that Xaviers sister doesn't get her real name used. in that data page they do list genosha as the biggest tragedy to affect mutant kind and i think thats her only mention in the era so far. with all the mutants that died there being brought and the empyre tie in set in genosha with the zombies, you'd think her name might appear at least once. not saying they shouldn't mention wanda, just weird cassandra gets off.

“There is no defense against the Scarlet Witch's HEX!”
Why are we leaving out the fact that Cassandra spent the entire previous issue lying to, traumatizing, and manipulating Trask?Cassandra didn't reprogram it the Sentinels to do anything till after Genosha...all she had to do was convince the Trask cousin to do it

Imagine hating Wanda so much that you wind up defending Cassandra Nova.

There's a reason for it and it's antagonization of Wanda fans. That's all it is.
Love is for souls, not bodies.
Cool. Noted. Not sure if there's anything else that can be said about this... If this was a thread concerning any of those people...or that country It woulda had more relevance
Defending against what exactly?
But honestly it'd make more sense debating a Nova fan
