She has played both lines of hero/villain spectrum with her most recent stint was villain. But given her history, trauma, motives, actions, and obvious lack of therapy/ true growth till her “final” moments. Would you consider her a bad person psychologically? I love exploring how different people view the same character on a psychological level so feel free to share your thoughts.

Everything she did under the corruption of the darkhold if we’re speaking about MOM, it was stated a couple times that the darkhold corrupts people. So her coming out of that corruption is still a win but morally she lies in the middle not pure bad nor pure good as we seen in her whole history
In my personal opinion I personally agree morally she’s in the grey area and often walks the line between hero and villain. In her villain moments (with the best examples really being WandaVision, Multiverse of Madness, and Age of Ultron) she was sort of droven to those given her trauma and severe lack of therapy. In Age of Ultron she was was driven to join Ultrons group and Hydra with the main want of getting revenge on Tony Stark after a war he funded/ weapon his company made caused the death of her parents/ childhood home. In the ensuing battle Pietro dies which immediately adds more trauma to her belt. Then a year later thrusted into CW where she was concluded as a monster due to lost of control over crossbones which caused her even more trauma given how the world sees her, and vision being her only real home/ love and his eventually death her being blipped her coming back and her grief being manipulated by Hayward, severe lack of therapy and real healing from one trauma episode to the next made her breakdown in west view make sense and letting her grief take hold she just wanted her family really same in MOM just she’s corrupted by the darkhold and her grief is displayed more. Her actions are brought on by the ends justify the means mindset it seems similar to when she says to Strange that her sacrifice meant nothing in the grand scheme of things in her mind seeing her life was the only one in the multiverse that was the screwup I can see where it drove her motive
I watched it last night, IT WAS SAD BUT SO GOOD. Wanda is a grieving mother the whole time just a woman who misses her happiness as (variant) wanda her killing the Illuminati was really cool and good but the ending was heartbreaking watching her kids be scared of her and her knowing she won’t get them back ever and just crying it was so sad and heartbreaking just want my favorite character happy frl
