magneto-suggestion:

Sapiens try to trip me by asking Things like: “I’m already doing X for Mutants and Y  for Mutants and Z for Mutants, do you still hate me?” And I usually answer Yes. Not just because of the manipulative Line of Questioning. But because either they will then do more for Mutants to please me – which is always sa good thing – or they won’t, in which Case they’re not doing their Best for Mutants and their Actions are utterly performative which makes me right to hate them.

Not to go all queer theory (bc we all know that kind of analysis tends to descend into hot nonsense fast), but like I sincerely believe that Magneto reads as fundamentally gay even discounting specific instances of homoeroticism surrounding him. I think it’s the particular combination of flamboyance/camp/performativity and pure, deep rage!
