I just don’t get people who say X-Men wasn’t “woke” until recently. It never even tried very hard to hide the metaphors…

    I mean, make they could have had Magento with the one with X in her name if he was modeled on Malcolm X. I said it was sloppy. I didn’t say it was wrong.

    Magento just preyed on disenfranchisement mutants with charisma. Malcolm X had more going on than that.

    A lot of problems I may have have more to do with it being a cape comicbook story. Any character arc that Magento has would be reset eventually.
