Honestly, speaking as a meta-loving, hardcore into accountability lapsed Loki fan where I casually like him but don't fandom anymore--the anti-fans were way snottier in my experience. People got real dumb sometimes with Loki (and Tom Hiddleston jesus christ) but there was a lot of quality work getting generated and I don't remember seeing as much saying it was okay to destroy Jotunheimr, wreck NYC, or attempt fratricide. People just got really emotional about stuff Loki may or may not have experienced and liked looking at a lot of sources, whether it was movies or poetic Eddas or comics. And then some comics purists who only liked lawful good heroes could not STAND that, or the idea that maybe the hero could still be a hero but have done some really messed up stuff in the past.

Me, I figure Thor is basically a good guy but in whatever continuity you pick he's done some really bad, reckless, nasty stuff while being totally unaware of it (as happens IRL sometimes) and was guilty of being kind of thoughtless. Not stupid, but had a very narrow way of seeing things that gets better as he develops. Odin I think is hyper traditional and means well but does have some toxic stuff internalized and might not always realize when he does something that could wreck someone. Plus Odin has to balance the throne/needs of Asgard with being a dad, which I'd imagine can be tough at times. The flipside of this confession is that hero fans often really struggle with thinking of heroes as fallible and doing stuff that's legit bad without becoming villains, same as how villains can have sympathetic motives and be victims in some situations without their villainous acts being less villainous. Characters should be more than labels.
