Omegas are a lone wolf without a pack – they are the lowest of the low.

Omega in the context of the Alpha Twins was used as an insult. Just as the word “Retarded” was used as a medical term to describe folks with learning disabilities became an insult.

That’s not a problem with canon – the canon didn’t change.

Why did no one seem to notice the deputies died? That’s not canon at all – that’s you applying real world rules onto a fictional reality. It has nothing to do with the "canon" of the show which is an accounting of the FICTIONAL reality.

The origin of the druids was mostly legend. While the fact that there is a legend is canon - within the universe we treat the legend like a legend not the gospel truth.

You also seem to have forgotten that there was one druid we’ve seen who could change their shape at will.

Again, the canon has not been contradicted.

As for Derek’s backstory – there WAS NO CANON until Visionary.

People created this elaborate backstory involving Kate and Derek – it wasn’t canon and was based on a single, non-specific line.

There’s been no contradiction because Derek had no actual backstory until Visionary.

It was clear throughout Season 1 that the Argents had been in Beacon Hills in the past. The fact that Kate burned down the Hale House confirmed that.

We have no knowledge of how long Chris and his immediate family lived elsewhere – we know they were living in San Francisco just prior to returning to Beacon Hills – that’s it.

Nothing has been retconned. The universe has proceeded along a straight line with some historical blanks filled in as we go.

It's like saying Kate's resurrection was a retcon - it wasn't. All the characters and the audience believed her to be dead. Turns out she wasn't. It's not a contradiction it is simply a case of everyone not having all the information. It was a gap in the knowledge that the writers exploited. History wasn't rewritten - it was filled in more completely.

As for not believing me on these points – one of us has been collecting, verifying, and publishing the canon of this show since 2011 – one of us has not.
