#i am on a wanda hating roll rn
Wanda trying to justify her actions by saying “I’m not a monster, I’m a mother” she’s not even a good mom. honestly. In WandaVision, the twins were babies for at most a few days (unclear with WV time) maybe just a night before she’s trying to use magic to make them stop crying instead of actually figuring out what they need to get them to stop. It’s not clear to me whether the twins aged themselves up the first time or if it was the effect of the Hex, but I think there’s a case to be made that it’s the latter and they became kids so she would have an easier time taking care of them instead of actually putting in the effort to raise them. After Vision tried to leave the Hex, she completely ignored her kids all day, passed them off on Agatha at the first chance, and didn’t do anything or even seem to care at all when Billy tried to tell her about his powers and how they were hurting him.She’d had them for a week at most.
In Multiverse of Madness, yes she is corrupted by the Darkhold. That is a narrative fact and frankly, I don’t think you need to make things up or change the story to make Wanda look bad (she does that on her own). But trying to kill another version of herself to steal children that aren’t hers, and being willing to kill America to do it, is the dark but logical conclusion of the selfish behavior that MCU!Wanda has always had. The Darkhold took that and exaggerated it, but those are the worst traits Wanda’s always had just blown up - she’s selfish, she does whatever she wants to get what she wants, other people pay the consequences, and she’s not even a good mother to make up for it.
