So many of them think that his made up slights really exist and that Odin didn't really treat him as a son and that Thor somehow wasn't a good enough brother.

Couldn't it be both true that he did feel like he was treated as the outsider, and not quite good enough because of who he was, and still made up a hell of a lot of his slights? I think it's more interesting if he was considered never quite good enough by the court, but still his own neurotic worst enemy?

It is an interesting idea, but I don't see any support for it in movie canon. In the movie, Odin clearly loves both his sons equally. He clearly sees Loki as just as much his son and loves him. If anything, he's harder on Thor as the older son. There is no evidence whatsoever that people didn't trust him (and no one but Odin knew his parentage to know he was a frost giant).

If you want to write your fics that way, fine, but at least label it AU. Because it isn't canon.

yeah i don't get the people who think odin is a bad father either. the only shitty thing he did to loki was the convenient odinsleep during loki's jotun freakout, but that's not really something he can control and he'd clearly been gearing up for one since the beginning of the film, lol. i love me some loki but people gotta find an alternative to dragging odin through the mud.

Well, the whole "surprise, you're a secretly adopted member of a species that are our hereditary enemies" thing was badly handled and predictably likely to turn into a mess.

We didn't actually see much of Odin's parenting technique, but look at the results. Thor was an arrogant, hot-headed idiot until he got hit with the humility stick, and Loki is a total disaster of a person. I'm sure Loki is totally exagerating or interpreting a lot of stuff in the worst possible light, but "kind of quietly disfunctional" "seems to me like a more plausible starting point for what happened in Thor than "everything was puppies and rainbows until Loki went off the deep end." It's more of a difference of interpretation than willfully ignoring canon. Except for the fic that has everyone wildly out of character, which is, admittedly, a lot of it.

That's what I thought, tbh. Small slights always seem bigger when you have self-esteem issues.
