Why is it such a big deal that Magneto is a "nazi"

Because he's a joo. That's literally it.

>>90520732
The Jews in Israel also mimic the behaviours of the Nazis, so anybody with an ounce of worldly knowledge shouldn't be surprised by that either. Are fans of Marvel comics just manchildren who have never opened a newspaper?

Yes, Magneto is more of a nazi than Hydra has ever been.

>>90520773
They aren't fans of Marvel. The people that complain about these things don't read comics, this has already been well established.
It's why Marvel gets on the verge of bankruptcy every time they pander to them.
They'll post on social media about how great Marvel is for having a muslim cunt, or a black legacy hero or gays or whatever but they won't actually buy and read that issue.

>>90520784
lol what comic is this?
Magneto had a country before Genosha?

>>90520773
>The Jews in Israel also mimic the behaviours of the Nazis

this
They consider non-jews inferior in their religion.

>>90520672
Because Magneto would never bow down to his oppressors, and to inferior flatscans.

>>90520672
it strikes me as so fuckign retarded becasue they just recently (2 years ago?) had an event where mags had quite a big role on the good guys versus red skull.

There was even pages to him denouncing nazis and stuff. So this isnt some sort of retcon of small old details people may have forgotten, this large part of his history was USED just recently

i mean im glad marvel is backtracking on the whole over the top PC stuff but this is just retarded. Can someone post any pages from AXIS where magnetos at the hydra camp talking with red skull?

Wasn't Magneto a good guy for like 10 years?

Magneto doesn't support the oppression and elimination of normal humans though.
He's just a mutant nationalist who tries to achieve his goals through violent means because he doesn't believe there's any other way.

>>90520672
Anyone that gets mad about an Steve hydra or this a stupid or never actually read the comic. Most people understand that status quo return. It's not like Steve suddenly revealed he was Hydra the whole time without explanation, a reality warper made him that way, that same warper is still around and in the event. It's obvious she will turn him back, especially since Kobik doesn't know Hydra is evil and that is the only thing keeping her on their side. Magneto will probably be the same but there is no point in bitching about a comic that hasn't come out yet.

Better question is when will Marvel have to do something about the whole holocaust backstory? Even if say Magento was born in a concentration camp the last year of the Holocaust he'd still be 72 years old. He is ageing out of that tragedy.

Steve's Hydra is not nazi. Although it is still a fascist Hydra. People nowadays throw NAZI and HITLER to everything from Obama to Trump to donuts. People are dumb, and also the ones who complain dont read the comics where it happens.
For that matter, superheroes have always been a fascist concept. You could argue even that Steve hasnt changed at all, just his origins that motivate him, people have always died indirectly for his actions, and he always have been a man of actions, actions who ultimately are about saving the world.

The only ones who complain right now are the idiots who dont read it. But still, Marvel use them for free publicity. Its not like they were buying the comic anyways, and whoever reads it they find out the story is actually interesting.

>>90521147
No hes not. hes a violent murderer who wants to kill all normies. Hes a terrorist. God I hate how people have spun him into an anti-hero or even a full blown good guy. Morrison was right to do what he did with Magneto and then marvel fucked it over immediately.

>>90521583
He's been deaged several times now so that's not an issue.
>>90521676
>hes a violent murderer who wants to kill all normies. Hes a terrorist. God I hate how people have spun him into an anti-hero or even a full blown good guy.

This would be accurate if you were talking about Magneto in the 60s or 90s or 00s. But Magneto has been an X-Man for most of this decade and hasn't done terrorism since Morrison which was more than a decade ago. It's called character progression. Until higher ups decide they want super villain Mags again.

>>90521807
Has Mags ever received any karmic retribution for his earlier terrorist activities?

Wait, where was Mags revealed to be part of Hydra?

He was a good guy from Uncanny X-Men 200 to whenever Acts of Vengeance happened

Because the irony of the character works better when he' a fascist in all but name. Making him a literal nazi weakens that.

But this doesn't matter, anyway. It's just another dumb twist that isn't gonna last.

>>90521873
>karmic retribution
Well there was that time Xavier mind wiped him so hard it created Onslaught, which was after he pulled the adamantium from Wolverine's bones and earlier launched a global EMP that surely racked up a high number of fatalities

That's his only large scale crime. Either with Marvel's retcon or Morrison's intended story he's not guilty of Planet X

He's a holocaust survivor. And Jewish. Basically the opposite of a Nazi

All Nazis are racist, but not all racists are Nazis. A Nazi is the one thing Maneto would never willingly become. They killed his fucking family.

Set all politics and social justice drama aside, and this is still a stupid idea just because of how incredibly out of character it is. It would be like having Batman suddenly announce he wants to be a criminal because he's so glad his parents are dead.

>>90523934

Okay, so here's the genuinely insane thing about this tempest in a teapot.

There's literally nothing - anywhere - which I can find which indicates that Magneto is going to be joining Hydra or aligning with it. He's going to appear on this one cover of one of the issues of Secret Empire, and from the mere fact that he's on one cover people have first jumped to the conclusion that the only reason this could be the case is because he's a member of Hydra and second rushed to moral outrage over it. The other covers in this set include some characters like Crossbones and Sin who plainly are absolute nazis but also characters like Baron Zemo whose role in things seems to be aiding Captain America in his ambition to murder the Red Skull and end the taint of his bigotry and narcissism in Hydra's ranks.

We literally have no reason to believe that Magneto is even a part of any aspect of the organization. He could be a part of the event as an ally of Steve's in trying to kill the Red Skull because obviously there's nothing he loves more than killing Nazis, or he could just be a wildcard who's resisting Steve's Hydra uprising on principle alone.

We don't know!

But people are treating the worst and stupidest possible assumption as fact because they're cynical and they enjoy manufactured outrage and because they assume the first thing they read must automatically be true.

>>90520773

Magneto's authoritarian and genocidal nature was always supposed to be ironic. He was supposed to be a hypocrite. We also had Claremont move him away from being as aggressively anti human (Morrison snapped him back there, in a way that I thought did work for his story, but was an abrupt change. I assume Morrison just intended to have the characterization washed away by Magneto's inevitable resurrection, but then we had the miserable retconning instead). It's next level shit writing, Mags would never be hydra in a million years, he's pretty much the most retarded character to make hydra, with Jim Hammond right behind him (I also think the Cap thing is retarded, but a tier below)

>>90525225
How is Magneto before Claremont ironic or a hypocrite?

>>90525225
>Mags would never be hydra in a million years, he's pretty much the most retarded character to make hydra

Again, though, what reason do we have to believe he's joining Hydra? Where is this coming from?

That's not ironic or hypocritical though. He wasn't Jewish until Claremont decided to give him a tragic backstory. He was just a mutant supremacist.

Doesn't one of the panels of Steve Rodger's Hydra world show mutants in camps or some shit? Why would Magneto be gung-ho about that?

>>90525624
I thought him being a holocaust survivor was built into Thomas' story of Wanda and Pietro being his kids?

>>90520672
Is he actually joining Hydra though? I thought it was just one of many variant covers showing different characters as part of Hydra (like Carol Danvers or Jane Foster) even though they're actually not.

Read the fucking comic.

Kobik created a false timeline for Steve where he was indoctrinated into a version of Hydra which existed during his childhood and predated Nazi germany, and which operated without the antisemitism of Naziism.

The version of Hydra which Steve remembers and which he was raised with literally never existed outside of his lived experience. It's not a part of the real world at all. Helmut Zemo was a part of it in his memories but in real life he hadn't even been born yet at that time. It's all illusion and trickery.

>>90524675
This. Baron Mordo and Kingpin are part of the villain covers too, and I highly doubt they've joined up with Hydra.

>>90525279
Remember that one time it was revealed to be a guy pretending to be Magneto pretending to be Xorn?

>>90525710
It is indeed a variant cover.

>>90525766
I read a bit of Spencers Samcap and was unimpressed. It's an undeniably retarded shock storyline, alternate timeline, false memories, infinity gauntlet shenanigans or otherwise. Spencer specifically wrote it like that with a convoluted twist so he could keep Cap "pure" in the story when in reality it doesn't fucking matter because it's just gonna all wash out in the end anyways. It's a miserable story choice.

>>90525663
I don't think so. The story where Xavier met Magnus and Gabrielle Haller in Israel was published before the Vision and Scarlet Witch limited series, at least.

>>90525801

Well, that's a matter of taste, and obviously you're entitled to your own opinions, but you're not entitled to your own facts. I'm just telling you what is and is not actually a part of the story and complaining about things which aren't a part of it isn't a valid argument.

Because the people making a big fuss don't read comics where Magneto always did fucked up stuff, and only care about getting re-blogs and clicks.

>Why is it such a big deal that Magneto is a "nazi" because he works for Hydra? I understood the twist of Captain America working for Hydra, but wasn't Magneto always a fucking nazi in the first place? The only more nazi-like character in Marvel is Red Skull.

Because Magneto has never called for the genocide of the Jews. A nazi is not a nazi because of how they behave, its a specific ideology. Hydra aren't nazis either, they're authoritarian fascists.

Jesus, how is it people don't understand this?

Well, you see:

Steve's Hydra 'future vision' in "The Oath" was literally about persecuting aliens and mutants, putting them into concentration camps.

Steve's more Nazi than Red Skull now, at least as far as the Mutants are concerned.

Steve still dreamed of concentrating Mutants in the camps and little blonde Hydra youth kids harassing some goat-legged Mutant/Inhuman/Alien kid.

>>90525997
He's had plenty of jokes on his Twitter about how ridiculous this controversy is, as well as pointing out in detail why HYDRA doesn't = Nazis.

I think the idea that freaker-outers are entitled to the special privilege to have their freakouts taken seriously kind of died with the freakout over Hydracap. They overplayed their hand and now nobody takes them seriously except clickbait sites, because they're literally arguing that it doesn't matter if offended people are right or wrong.

>>90535816

>>90536438
Basically the argument during the Hydra-Cap freakout was: it doesn't matter that Hydra isn't actually the Nazis and Cap isn't really being turned into a Nazi, all that matters is some hypothetical person might feel offended at it.

This is why you hear stuff like this described as "tone deaf" or criticized for bad "optics." It means "I know what this means, but think how it must look to someone who doesn't know what's going on."

HYDRA isn't Red Skull's organization. Red Skull made his own "HYDRA" after Pleasant Hill, but it's not the "true" Hydra. That's why Zemo and Steve are plotting to kill Red Skull and restore Hydra to their former glory.

>>90541144
Eh. Red skull has been with hydra for a long time. Besides Baron Strucker is a nazi and is one of it's leaders. Steve has memories of a hydra that never existed. Basically he's mind washed.

Can you imagine if Grant Morrison's explicitly Hitler-esque Magneto came out today?

Back then, in the ancient early '00s, X-fans complained that Morrison had ignored all Claremont's character development to get Magneto back to his Silver Age version. And that is a fair complaint.

But today we'd get endless thinkpieces saying that Grant Morrison is committing violence with his bad writing.

>>90520672
This is almost as sad as the people crying last year when Steve went Hydra.

Anyone who read comics for five minutes realized that was the most blatantly comic book-y plot possible.
