Honestly I don't think it's something that they're missing even the executioner said you didn't think we'd find a way to evolve and it's simple as this either they deal with random genetic freaks coming out in order to tell them who they're going to be or they make or take control and Ogden themselves to have the powers that they want or need The simple fact of the matter is if tranotion was going to be a thing it was gonna have borders and an army that means that we need one in kind in order to face mutants so building up a form of sentinel is legit it's planning an unprovoked preemptive attack that's the problem I knew it's not unhostile to elect a guy who threw 4 nukes at a coastal city as her leader especially when you have many flags throughout the nation proclaiming him a hero and someone who's mindset is to be followed and honored The only reason he has to kill more people than in genosha but for now is because storm and Charles stopped him.

So she abandoned him to his father abuse. Of course she never bothered to look for Kirt-her mutant son _ Since natural birth didn't give her the perfect child, she chose adoption.

OZT, a world government sanctioned, black book program, kills easily thousands of mutants in one stroke, and you expect Magneto to pen a strongly worded letter? Keep licking that boot of respectability politics.

Everyone always goes surface level when they do the whole "X-men are minorities" thing. In the real world, minorities don't shoot lasers from their eyes when you piss them off, they are human just like any of us, but mutants are VERY dangerous. Normal humans have a justified and existential fear of mutants especially with characters like Mystique and Magneto running around being literal terrorists. This is exactly why I hate Krakoa (and to a lesser extent Utopia). When mutants go off on their own and create their own nations, they start to believe they are superior to humans and don't need to share the world with them. These are the acts of a villain and when youre heroes become villains, there is no one left to be the hero.

This is why Cyclops is so pivotal. He is a philosophical amalgamation of the Professor and Magento. And he is far more right than the both of them.

There has to be something else that makes them different that will transcend timeand race isn't enough. Ideological differences makes more sense and puts humans and mutants at odds far better than simplistic looks differences. The first and second amendment are treasured by different people. It isn’t based in looks. It's based on a belief that people have rights beyond the government gifting them. With mutants, they would be for both. Being for the right to defend oneself by using what you're born with is a far better stance than how Marvel has set mutants up. Now that's an argument. That is ongoing.

The problem with saying “Magneto was right” is that no one can agree on what that even means.

Bc the second one is NOT true and a terrible message to send. Using the war in Gaza right now as an example, does that mean that jews and palestinians will NEVER be able to coexist? Does it mean black ppl and white ppl will never be able to exist along each other as brothers and sisters? Bc I saw ppl on twitter saying Magneto is right and that “its either mutants or humans” and thats an insanely harmful thing to believe. Magneto just killed *millions* of people including mutants! Even more than innocent mutants died in Genosha. Xavier’s message was never “uwu lets never fight back against oppression and beg humans to be nice to us”. That man and his x-men literally fought and defeated bigots and oppressors like the ppl leading the Sentinel program. He just refused to target civilians, bc he believed the lives of humans and mutants are equally precious. That, to me, is who is RIGHT

Worse even than you suggest - if the argument is that Magneto is 'right' in his actions, then the unavoidable implication is that the oppressed group in any situation of historical or contemporary social injustice has the right not just to use limited violence to resist their mistreatment, but large scale indiscriminate violence and mass murder in its 'resistance', up to and including the total extermination of entire demographic groupings. Not only those individuals actually directly responsible for their oppression, but innocent third parties and indeed anyone and everyone who isn't like them, and even plenty of people who are like them who get caught up in the horror show as collateral damage. It is an argument for trying to genocide one's way to some sort of insane utopia, and history has long since taught us the horrors that sort of mindset always leads to. It is never less than terrifying to see how quickly so many ordinary people will blithely endorse policies that would result in the most nightmarish death and suffering simply because they don't think through the implications of that which they are advocating for. They fall over themselves to such a degree, in their rush to paint themselves as what they imagine to be 'morally righteous', that they wind up arguing for the most heinous evil without even realising it. In a discussion about an animated TV show that might not matter much, but unfortunately such mindsets translate all too readily to entirely real and extremely fraught political and social issues.

There are good reasons for why those events haunted Oppenheimer and the other scientists who worked on the Manhattan Project so badly. Longer answer - the use of nuclear weapons to try to end the war in the Pacific Theatre has long been a contentious historical event. Some historians argue that it ended a war early that would otherwise have dragged on and claimed even more lives, but I don't recognise the validity of that justification. I was not around at the time, but I consider both deployments of the A Bomb against Japan to be heinous war crimes - the deliberate targeting of civilian population centres with weapons of mass destruction is simply unjustifiable in my eyes. Just like the V2 rocket bombardments of London and the broader Blitz, along with the fire bombings of Coventry by the Germans and later of Cologne by the Allies, only on a far larger scale, the deployment of nuclear weapons was a policy born of a dangerous so called 'total war' mindset that argued that wars are fought not between armies but between entire cultures including their respective civilian populations, and so it was considered, as part of that worldview, an 'acceptable' tactic to try to win a war by breaking the will of the general citizenry of your opposition by targeting civilian population centres for wholesale destruction with the intent to inflict large scale civilian casualties. I have never supported that position and never will. If you once accept the idea that civilian immunity can be ignored in any form of conflict as a tactic, then you have abandoned any pretence of moral authority.

Millions. He would've killed millions. Not all at once mind you, this would've been in stages. Planes crashing, reactors overloading, people in hospitals on life-support failing, cars crashing, ect. But that's just the first stage of deaths. Then you have the deaths that result as an afterward. How many medications require to be refrigerated or else they go bad? So, so many. And they all just went poof. Now we need to manufacture more. Then there's debris, from the falling planes, the reactors, even satellites that might come crashing down. Those events will cause further deaths and destruction. In short, he just gave the whole world the middle finger.

Wait, Cable reacting to Jean that way is lifted straight from the comics, and this is coming from someone that's sworn off anything Disney produced. This show is indeed showing love to the source material, but too bad the mind behind this has been Bonly Fanned out the door. 🤣😂🤣

Believing the worst and expecting the worst, with some still not willing to give the show a chance because we've been burned too many times by the same thing over and over that we were willing to write this show off as another soulless cash grab. But this show proved us wrong. It is well thought out, honours what came before and expands and improves the story that gets people talking about it and reigniting a love for the characters that we thought had been lost. Just like Charles Xavier, we should have been looking for the good and not closed ourselves off.

This was pretty badass but also really horrifying if you think about it. Magneto has shut off all electronics in the world in a single moment. Every passenger plane and helicopter has dropped out of the sky, every train with electric brakes now cannot stop, every person on life support is now dying or dead, every fire truck and ambulance trying to save someone has now stopped. We don't see the carnage on screen, but if you think about Magneto has effectively killed thousands if not millions of people with this one act.

It’s hard to imagine, though I will admit; when I first heard them saying that Beau got the job because Kevin Feige “was interested in his perspective from a gay point of view”, I was groaning loudly because I figured just as Disney has done countless times before, they would push the divisive political messaging to the forefront of all episodes and they would never shy away from any opportunity to throw it in. Like, I was absolutely certain they would have an episode where Morph would “come out” as his true self to explain his new head. And for the record, I am still not happy with the way Morph has been portrayed…he seems like a different character altogether. But that being said, I have been very pleasantly surprised (and relieved) that it hasn’t been made totally blatant in the aggressive way I figured it would be. Sure, there have been hints of it here and there, but by no means is it distracting or heavy handed in the same way most Disney productions are now. It’s actually a shame that they sold this series from the start being about Beau’s sexuality….that sewed the seeds of doubt from the beginning and chased many former fans away from giving it a chance. Had his “black gay experience” never been mentioned as a selling point, then I think virtually ALL X-Men fans would have been completely on board with this show. While the media focused on the wrong selling point initially, now it has been proven that Beau truly did have a lot of passion and respect for these characters and that he actually was great for the job….it’s just that his “black, gay experience” has nothing to do with it. As long as they would keep things going the way they are, then I would be more than happy to see him come back and continue writing these characters. He really does seem to understand them far better than I or many others initially believed he would and (at least so far) “the message” as Drinker would say, has NOT taken priority over the storytelling as it so often does, and for which I am exceedingly happy about!

Magneto has BEEN right!

13:32 - Magneto knows the darker side of base human nature; he's lived it. Charles, like with MLK knows what humanity can aspire to BE. Not what we currently are. He's aware of it, yes. Absolutely. That's why he built the dream he had, and recruited those willing to loyally fight for such a lofty goal. But it IS a lofty goal. You can argue that Magneto knows we aren't there yet - and may never be. Not at the core of the issue. We are a petty, jealous and diomineering species. Problem being not who's right... it's that neither side is the better option thus far. * Charles effectively turned a sentient technology into a child soldier trying to kill his favored students for decades, to train them to survive a war he wants to stop... and can't likely do so by the means he'd most wish to use. Ever. Magneto would end up recreating a holocaust no matter which way he went about it. Because at the end he is more Malcom X- advocation for acceptable force (with his side's version of "force" being debatably very naturally unbalanced) The whole point of their decades long argument, and effective chess match against each other was the nuance that neither side was exactly wrong; nor completely right. It's not definitive. It's not black and white.

Bottom line, I hope it's all just a stupid misunderstanding, and we get DeMayo back. But, let's not get too encouraging until we find out what DeMayo did or didn't do. If he did something really bad, Disney/Marvel and Demayo keep quiet and rehire him, then it all comes out later as something really bad. Who are we going to blame? Certainly not ourselves for encouraging Disney to rehire DeMayo. The last thing we need, for the sake of a great X-Men show, is to give the media a future a reason to blame the fans and, bigger picture, make it OK for companies to keep people on staff for talent no matter what terrible things they may do.

Don't include Cosby in that list. He traded drugs for sex in a time when that was socially acceptable and got screwed over by a prosecutor lying about not-recording what was supposed to be an off-the-record comment. That's not even remotely comparable to being a chomo. Also: What in the actual Hell are you on about? I guarantee you, if DeMayo did anything even remotely illicit, we all would've heard about it the moment it happened. I don't know if you've noticed, but it's become incredibly fashionable to go straight to the media with accusations of wrongdoing in recent years. Or were you sleeping through the entire MeToo "movement"?

Amazing episode

Beau DeMayo probably didn't bend to some changes they wanted to make on the show and he finished the product without committing to them. This explains why he was removed before release. This is why it doesn't feel like Disney meddled with anything.

I'm guessing they wanted the sociopolitical messaging nerfed, my best guess anyway.

I know humans you feel afraid of us, we are different, but we needn't be. You fear your extinction by our hand hand, you needn't. We are you sons, daughters, parents, uncle and aunts, we are an exyended family. Look to us to protect you from us and in time you'll see we hurt as you, fret as you, bleed as you. You say you will become extinct? No say I, in time you will BECOME US. The flow of time stands still for no one, even those who can jump the flow of time. Take heed that though born extraordinary we are you and you are us.

JSG, at 3:10 you klmention about Cable and Genosha. The constant shifting is ab omega level mutant like Apokolips or even Cable himself later in time from making a worse future.

This was a very Old Testament play call. I love it.

I love this show being back, in all the senses that can be taken. The shots it's taken have all been no scope levels of on point.

Base human nature: fight hate with hotter hate; a never-ending cycle.

The point is humans and mutants are destined to destroy one another and Xavier was just naive. Magento is not good but he is right. It will end in an all out war. Humans a majority will never accept mutant and will always try to contain them and the mutant will never trust the human to not try to contain them.. Sometimes peace was never an option only war

They fired the showrunner for having a Onlyfans account. Supposedly. If true odd such happened on the 11th hour of the premiere of an animated show with all the pre-production work involved. My theory such was vetted sooner and pocketed for office politics.

I agree, they had to have known and were just holding onto it. Maybe someone was featured that was in the Executive office, but that could’ve helped his case 😂. It would be great if they brought him back.

Cable was separated from Bishop in the time stream when Bishop was taking Cable to the future. They said it in the beginning of x men 97 ep 8 in the beginning were Scott and Gean were talking in the professors office.

I wonder how this show is going to deal with Magneto killing millions, along with most of the world now having a very good reason to hate mutants. You'd expect the Friends of Humanity to get millions of new members from all the people who lost a loved one. It would be really terrible if they just ignored this because all these problems would prevent the main cast from having silly adventures.

@@drrohanjacob5343 "The point is humans and mutants are destined to destroy one another" According to Bishop the Sentinels will rule the world. According to Cable Apocalypse will rule the world. So in both timelines neither destroy the other. "Humans a majority will never accept mutant and will always try to contain them and the mutant will never trust the human to not try to contain them.." And according to Cable Sentinels will replace humans and enslave mutants. Unsure why mutants might want a war that results in this outcome.

I kept waiting for the video to say "sike! April 1st". Sigh.

I have a question maybe someone can help me with. I like the show but can someone explain why cyclops is not blown backwards when using his power like when they were in the car and he blasts a path. Hopefully someone can help me understand that. Thinking he should be blown backwards kinda takes away fun of watching some parts. Not looking for an argument just a helpful explanation thank you 👍

You're right. That doesn't seem to make sense. My best guess to justify it would be that Scott uses his visor to achieve different effects with his optic blast. I'm guessing the blasts he used to move around quickly in Episode 1 were actually very weak, so they pushed *him* instead of destroying the floor. While the blast he used to destroy the cave was so powerful that it obliterated everything and there was no energy feedback.

@@bluemagicazure-knight7964 It's like ... if you stand right in front of a wall and push it, you'd get knocked back because you're not strong enough to push the wall. But if you were much stronger, you'd smash through the wall and you *wouldn't* get knocked back. The energy has to go somewhere. It either comes back at you or keeps moving forward. And Scott can use his visor to calibrate how hard he "pushes".

11:30 We don't know that they are trying to kill any of them at this time so that's just your biases. Now I say this because they did not kill Beast even though they have every opportunity to. We see them attacking yes but not killing. We don't know how deadly the blast they have are, but I would say the same thing about Cables gun, Cyclops's blast, and many of the other X Men attacks. We also now that these Prime Sentinels would have lots of information on all the X Men and how tough they are. That means they could be dealing enough damage to knockout but not kill. The reason behind this is that Bastion will need them to build his future, and he promised lots of test subjects for Mr. Sinister to play with in exchange for help with the Wild Sentinel.
