Also, Emma Frost has been an anti-hero for almost 3 decades now. She's not comparable to Red Skull, Sinister and Galactus at all, and the mere fact you used those as a comparison says a lot.
If you wanted people to offer evidence to the contrary, you simply shouldn't be as dismissive as you were. When your problem is how people enjoy the product and not the product itself, there's no point in providing evidences, and again, no one is obligated to even do so in the first place. But you have the obligation to respect people's opinions, no matter how much you disagree with them. But sure, I'll bite.
Her role in Devil's Reign regarding Isabelle;
The Progenitor judging her by using her guilt in regards to her dead students (even though they were already reborn in Krakoa);
- On that note, she was the only one shown to mourn Santo when he died in X of Swords. Saying Emma doesn't care about the children at this point is just ignoring the obvious, IMO;
Helping with Krakoa's funding by establishing its economy;
Her funding the Marauders to rescue mutants that needed help around the world;
- Actually, her funding a lot of X-Men projects throughout the years, including but not limited to Generation X, Utopia and the X-Mansion;
And since you named Firestar, in-universe Emma is the only reason she is even a part of the team.
To name a few.
She is an anti-hero and has been that for decades. That means she'll do good things for selfish reasons, bad things for the greater good and all the many variations in between, including moments of genuine good intentions and genuine jerk behavior.
