      I dunno - I don't think things have to be a 1:1 allegory to work artistically Wanda's shtick FEELS very resonant to me even if the moral links are all hazy and fudgedhttps://twitter.com/nberlat/status/1380993534300459010 …

      whereas Wanda is harming people without knowing it. which is possibly a good metaphor for like, the capitalist and environmental harms of American suburban life, but doesn't connect to her grief in a way that makes much sense.

      Are there many people in the world with a situation that specifically mirrors Wanda's? No of course not Are there a lot of marginalized people who long for the "problematic" image of white picket fence domestic life? Absolutely

      It's not a direct 1:1 connection planned from the beginning - the sitcom thing is a retcon about her character, there's no "sitcom stuff" in her backstory from the movies explaining her trauma, they don't have much to do with each other But like, so what It works

      We know so little about Wanda based on Age of Ultron that she might be an idol singer for all we know

      We didn't even know she was an adult in Age of Ultron until WandaVision. They made her look and act like a teenager for her first two movies. Her first scene in Infinity War was such a huge change for her character. She suddenly looked and acted year older

      Age ambiguity was of course central to WandaVision, where within a single week she goes from the social role of a newlywed in the 50s (who would be expected to be no older than 25) to a "soccer mom" in the 2000s (whom we'd expect to be mid/late-30s)

          Ironically, I thought she looked and acted older in the first episode than she did in the Modern Family episode. I think it was because the 1950s episode was live, and she clearly had to focus hard on the way she walked and talked, whereas in episode 7 she was slouching and comfy

          Well you could turn this into a thing about how girls especially in the 50s were supposed to be finished growing up and responsible for running a household by the end of their teens (literally "finishing school") while Millennials are a Peter Pan and Wendy generation
