And the fact that she mentally violated all of the Avengers (particularly Tony and Bruce) and then was just accepted into their ranks like it was nbd? It’s a bit much for me. Particularly since she never got held accountable for her role in creating Ultron (like the narrative said “oh but she lost her brother!” and decided that was enough).
You get hints of this in WandaVision too. Monica mournfully telling Wanda “[the townspeople] will never know what you gave up for them” and Wanda saying it won’t change how they see her. It’s this moment of “oh it’s a shame that Wanda will never be understood” but again, Wanda is responsible for how she got perceived negatively. The idea that it’s sad that this whole town of people she victimized (more mental violation, keeping them away from their loved ones, etc.) don’t empathize with her loss is just…squicky to me. This Vox article explains that better than I can though.
Thank your for the linke.

Wandas Hydra's Nazi history.
Wanda and Pietro was working with the fascist network known as Hydra, and was uttering their Nazi-esque salute.
That shit is canon in MCU.
