It might be because Apocalypse iirc hasn't lost to anyone cleanly. There is always some plot device loss or Apocalypse is weaker than normal, and even when weak he's beaten the x-men badly in like 30 seconds which is something Sinister has never done straight up, even with the Marauders.

Read early xmen. Charles wasnt a dick. Neither was scott. Fury was an ass but not a MURDERING ass. Reed, Namor, Tchalla....the only one i half expected to turn heel was Tony. Due solely to ego. But the others, nay?
or you you know, like pretending to lose his powers during a very crucial time, which would of resulted in a shit ton of people dying if his plan failed. or faking his death a shit ton of times, and one of those times was...........so he can have some time alone

and thats just the tip of the iceberg, theres the danger room shit, him covering up an entire team of x men being killed, and you know him killing his sister in the womb...
Not really disproving my point. He was retconned in to being much worse than he had been previously. Danger, Vulcan, all that, only came about through retcons. For a long time, sure, his judgment wasn't always the best, but he wasn't nearly as bad as he ended up becoming once they started changing shit around.
those first few times i mentioned were retcons.....? small dick big dick medium dick orange dick, it doesnt matter, a dick is still a dick. i will admit, they upped his dickery to silver age superman comicbook cover levels a lot over the years.
jesus, i know!! im tired of the try hard batman grittyness thats been going on since god knows when.... batman and his mythos changed the industry for worse....

Yea he made mistakes but xavier was intended to be a MLK type character. All that stuff came later. The only reason Kitty called him a jerk is because she wasnt ready to be an xman. She was still a novice with her powers and she had childish impulses.
the disappearing for a bit wasn't rectonned, no, but it wasn't exactly high on the scale of dickery. It makes him no worse than most superheroes, who take stupid risks all the time.
what about the faking his death, leaving a taped will along with having his students watch him painfully die leading to them getting captured immediately, then almost killed... then comes back two years later after hiding in the ****ing basement and making jean lie to everyone about it... if that isnt high OR atleast medium....i dont know man...
his dickery stretches back into the early x men days
Heroes have faked their deaths before. It isn't remotely as bad as mindwiping Cyclops or joining the Illuminati, and besides, back then he did a hell of a lot of good to balance out the occasional bad.
