Did you like...not notice the GIANT METALLIC ALIENS rampaging through the city or something?? you keep acting like they don't exist but I'm pretty sure pretty much all of the civilians could see them and what they were doing.

You seem to think that everyone in that world is going to share the same perspective of the Avengers

I'm not talking about the Avengers' perspective. I'm talking about a relatively objective observation of a) what happened, b) what I believe to be morally right and c) what I think, based on the information I have, that civilians would have seen and thought, i.e. how the battle appears to someone with no background info.

I feel like you are ignoring a really, REALLY important piece of the equation. I kind of feel like a broken record but ALIENS. Big, gray, spiky, powerful, bloodthirsty aliens UTTERLY WRECKING SHIT. They aren't invisible and they are really important to this discussion, but every time they're brought up you completely ignore them in your response.

DA (than any of the others)

I gotta add, there's also a very high likelihood that there will be some sort of video of what happened going around, if not from multiple sources. There was probably some naive kid taking camera phone footage of the attack who later (or even in the moment if they can get access to it on their phone) post it to the internet. Hundreds of cameras in and around undamaged shops, banks, and other buildings that may have still had power. Satellite imagery (this is the city Tony Stark's building is in, if anyone thinks there aren't agencies around the world who have it under constant surveillance, they're being a bit naive).

Knowledge that it was an alien attack and the Avengers were defending everyone is more than likely going to get out and be accepted by the population at large.

This is an excellent point, anon.

seriously?

there were rape apologists for the steubenville football players EVEN AFTER THE EVIDENCE CAME OUT that they were guilty as fuck.

so no. even when faced with IRREFUTABLE PROOF ZOMG, some people are not going to believe it.

DA

How does "accepted by the population at large" preclude "Some people are not going to believe it"?

Most people will believe. Some people will be perceived as nutjobs. It's the way of the world (especially America I think).
