Re: Worst/weirdest takes you've seen

You cannot make weapons and not know they are being used on civilians. Like, even people who are not super up to date on the news know that the US military kills a lot of civilians as collateral damage.

You can not know if it's fiction and your fictional world says you can. If you want, say the writers didn't do their research, but if the movie genuinely portrays him as not knowing, that means it was true in the movie and not a bad take invented by apologetic fans.

There is a dissonance between the way that Tony Stark is portrayed in the film, and the way that the US military is known to work in the real world (and presumably works in the movie as well; there's no particular reason to suppose that it's any different). It's a genuine tension, a thematic/political contradiction, and I don't think it can really be resolved just by saying whether or not it's canon.

Re: Worst/weirdest takes you've seen

Yeah, I'm surprised that anyone thinks he didn't know. You have to know that your weapons of mass destruction are going to kill EVERYTHING they fall on, not just the "bad guys".

But I would agree that there is a difference between intellectually knowing that your weapons kill people, and then actually seeing the people who are likely to get killed.

But you can't NOT know that your weapons kill people - it's just a willful ignorance and an unwillingness to think about it, because you don't want to deal with it.
