As king, whilst pretending to be Odin, Loki did the following:

• Pardoned Thor, Sif, and the Warriors Three of their treason
  
• Treated Thor as Loki himself had never been treated by their Father
  
• Separated the two Infinity Stones in Asgardian protection, and gave one to another powerful being, for the sake of preventing both from being found at once or from making Asgard a higher priority target 
  
• Removed Asgardian troops from the rest of the Nine and kept them on Asgard, where the Space Stone was being kept and therefore where they were most needed, whilst also creating a time of peace for Asgard
  
• Pushed Asgard toward entertainments (theatre) that aren’t violent
  
• Rebranded himself as a hero rather than just allowing his identity as the Jotun Prince become all that would be remembered
  

And that’s just what was shown.

Agree with everything on this list. If only the franchise had framed it that way.

In a supposedly anticolonialist movie they managed to paint the withdrawal of troops from foreign, “less advanced” lands as something lazy and vile, only because Loki was doing it.

Fuck Waititi and his imagined progressive views, his entire brand of wokeness falls apart at the first breeze.

Just
want to clarify: The anti-colonialism aspect of the movie was NOT that
director’s idea. The whole “Odin conquered the 9 realms and stuff”
sequence was not in the original cut and was in fact added during the
reshoot, and it’s  Disney/Marvel who decided to add this in, not that
director.   No need to credit the director for this. Does he even look
like he could come up with this?  He doesn’t seem to have any brilliant
ideas other than making up some jokes related to human private parts.

😂 This.
