If we\\\'re talking about Baldur, then I contest this because Baldur was the most beloved god, and he\\\'s described as being really nice, so that would seem unlikely that he\\\'d be a jerk about the invulnerability that he didn\\\'t even orchestrate. The other gods were the ones who came up with the \\\"throw stuff at Baldur and watch it miss him\\\" game.

** exile his children for the crime of existing,

Admittedly, it was a dick move, but the whole thing about Loki\\\'s children was that they were dangerous. Like, eat the sun and moon dangerous, or encircle the world because you\\\'re a giant fekking sea serpent dangerous.

** get one of his kids to kill another, tie him up in a cave with a snake forced to drip venom in his eyes for who knows how long.
** Good plan there, guys. By the time he gets free he and his family have embraced that destiny with all their beings, and no one can blame them.
*** Oh yeah, and to imprison Loki in the aforementioned cave, the Aesir \\\'\\\'butchered his dead son and used the son\\\'s entrails to bind him.\\\'\\\' The very same son that they, as mentioned above, had orchestrated to be killed by the other son.

While the butchering of his son by turning his other son into a wolf was a dick move, the whole \\\"tie him up and drip snake venom on him\\\" was because he orchestrated the murder of Baldur, the most beloved god, by tracking down the one thing in the universe capable of harming him, made a spear out of it, guided Baldur\\\'s blind brother Hoor into throwing the Mistletoe spear into Baldur\\\'s heart, got the other gods to execute Hoor for the murder he personally orchestrated, then disguised himself as a giantess and under said disguise said he would not mourn Baldur\\\'s death, which prevented Baldur\\\'s resurrection. Please note, Hel was willing to release Baldur if everyone, alive and dead, mourned Baldur. Literally everybody in the universe but Loki\\\'s disguised self mourned Baldur.

Loki was jerked about a fair bit, but he did a \\\'\\\'lot\\\'\\\' of jerking himself.
