I\'m not sure about TheScrappy entry for the Vishkar Corporation. For one thing, it\'s a character trope, so it seems kind of weird to apply it to an entire organization. But more importantly, Scrappy is not just a trope for \"things people dislike\". It\'s a trope for a character who was \'\'supposed\'\' to be popular, but instead became widely hated. HateSink characters and other archetypes that deliberately draw ire from fans are not Scrappies, because they are intentionally designed to do so.

Aside from Symmetra (who\'s entire character is centered around the fact that she does evil for the greater good, and is shown to be having second thoughts about supporting Vishkar in her story) I don\'t think we are intended to like Vishkar. \"KnightTemplar hypocrites\" as the entry describes them, definitely don\'t sound like the sort of people who the audience is supposed to like.
