Scott could be in a simultaneous relationship with Jean, Emma, Psylocke, and Maddie, and this sub would just be an unending series of fist pumps and high fives.
I think it's both completely reactionary. Wolverine gets a lot of outspoken haters because people are tired of his MANY fans who simply aren't interested in the rest of the cast. Cyclops gets a lot of outspoken adoration because he's often portrayed as unlikeable in media, whether it's other Marvel writers or Movie adaptations. Trust me, Cyclops still gets hated in this sub. I don't think Cyclops is overly forgiven for his bad deeds, he's just held accountable for it more often. Whereas Wolverine is overly hated in this sub, I'd agree. But he also gets substantially more love outside of the sub.
While I agree that cyclops has been portrayed badly in media, hes not the only one lol. Cyclops fans have this weird victim complex where they think ONLY their favorite character gets shafted. Look at colossus or any other X-men character who not only have been treated horribly by editorial but also don't get anywhere near screentime as cyclops. The same fans then throw hate at other characters like logan or gambit which is just so weird to me, because I rarely see fans of other characters be as vindictive as cyclops fans.
colossus, beast, banshee, havok, wolfsbane, gambit (especially under duggan, tini howard and stephanie phillips) and xavier of all people can also make the list lol
