Scarlet Witch's Origin Retcon Makes Doctor Strange Look Like an Idiot

screenrant.com:

With all that fans have learned regarding Scarlet Witch, Doctor Strange’s attempts to override Wanda’s own explanation of why her powers have grown so out of control comes across as nothing more than a case of magical mansplaining. Though much about her character has vacillated throughout the years, with valid questions on whether she is a mutant or not, whether she is Magneto’s biological daughter or not, and even whether she is a hero or not, some things are becoming crystal clear. She is a prolific conduit for chaos magic, and she is descended from a long line of chaos magic users, meaning that there are other Scarlet Witches and Warlocks.

Scarlet Witch was introduced in X-Men #4 by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby as a villain, joining Magneto’s Brotherhood of Evil Mutants after he rescued her from a mob. Wanda Maximoff would eventually come to believe that she was a mutant and the Master of Magnetism’s biological daughter. Those beliefs were upended as another chapter in her chaotic backstory revealed that she was neither a mutant nor Magneto’s offspring. Instead, she and her brother Pietro (aka Quicksilver) were revealed to be “failed” experiments of the High Evolutionary, an unscrupulous scientist who is obsessed with genetic manipulation. It was later revealed that this villain was only indirectly responsible for Wanda’s abilities, as his schemes merely awakened powers that she had inherited from her mother, the prior Scarlet Witch. With a family legacy of chaos magic, Doctor Strange's efforts to discredit Scarlet Witch and her fundamental understanding of her own powers are ill-informed at best.
