That and the original ending was in the comic.

He’s always had a darkness to him, sure, but that manifested as a berserker rage. Assassinating political rivals? That seems off-brand. 

I’ve only looked at the Reddit incels, so maybe they vary from location to location, but they seem obsessed with “looksmatch” relationships. The only time I see them critique women’s appearances are when they make strawmen of the people who criticize them or do the whole “promiscuous women have larger labias” thing.…

Sure, if by “copy and paste response” you mean “making it clear which part of the comment each part of the reply is referring to, which is just etiquette”. 

Iron Man was already a pretty good fit for Ellis’ writing style. If he was writing Cap or something I can’t imagine it going as well. 

Are you thinking of Morrison? I don’t think Warren Ellis ever wrote for New X-Men. 

“New information”? You say this like you’ve been presenting evidence this whole time. You can’t criticize someone for not posting facts and citing sources when that hasn’t been going on from the beginning, that’s just nonsense.

Oh so you admit and agree that being “ugly” and “unpleasant” is in the eye of the beholder?

What a great way to avoid confronting the weaknesses in your argument. 

Very few faces are so ugly so as to be completely irredeemable

Trump is vaguely rich and more or less famous, I seriously doubt any of the women we know slept with him would have done so without those massive advantages the average person can’t replicate. The only problem with Hitler was that he was a monstrous Nazi, so to another Nazi he probably seemed fine. You’re acting like…

If that counts as faking it, then what’s a real personality change, going off to live with monks?

There’s some variation, but only so much. Most people are more or less in agreement on whether a person is attractive or charming, it’s more like taste in movies than in music. Some people are just the living equivalent of Movie 43, and there’s only so much you can do about it. 

I’d think they at least used to go after people, although who knows if they still do. But the vibe I always get is that they’re upset that no woman will date them, not that plenty of women would but they’re not good enough. If there’s one group I wouldn’t assume has high standards it’s the people who are so lonely…

Not remotely, I never came close to implying that. I’m just saying that some people are always going to be ugly and unpleasant, and it doesn’t do any good to gloss over it. 

Sure, but presumably they have something else to offer. Charm, talent, a sense of humor, whatever. But there’s always going to be a certain chunk of the population that has a charmless personality in addition to being unattractive. 

Orion as a Caesar-esque power mad despot? I don’t see it. The guy has anger problems, but he’s not a monster.

They fixate on them, but I’m not convinced that means they go after them exclusively.

Maybe they have to spend money. Maybe they have to be charming.

Being in shape and well dressed can only do so much for a bad face.
