So the thing is that the entry is predicated on misrepresenting Darcy, Jimmy, and Monica (Maria? I forget). Basically Hayward does have plenty of reasonable positions... which are also shared with them. They also do consider Wanda dangerous. They\\\'re, if anything, more cautious than he is, yet this writeup makes it sound like they\\\'re taking risky actions based on nothing and acts like entertaining the idea that \\\"hey, maybe Wanda is the symptom, not the cause\\\" is an unreasonable position.

And praising the drone strike for the outcome of \\\"they got valuable intel\\\" is a blatant after-the-fact justification. Because the thing is, were Wanda truly the malicious figure he thinks she is (and as powerful as they suspect) then he would simply be dead. The drone strike only makes sense if Wanda were A: Less powerful than feared or B: Less malicious than feared. It\\\'s an attack that the only way it can\\\'t backfire is if Wanda were more friendly than he believes her to be.

Because at the end of the day, every reasonable position Hayward has is shared by the main trio. The only place he diverges is where he\\\'s objectively and idiotically wrong.

Is it frustrating that he\\\'s as flat as he is? Absolutely. But that doesn\\\'t justify misrepresenting the show to make him seem better.
