Magneto Was Right
And you know whose the least happy about that?
Magneto.
Cause he didn't want to be right. For a moment he really did believe.
But now, he has nothing left to say except "Enough". He doesn't even scream, cause Erik is so tired, man. He's tired of being right.

obsessed with the parallel of showing magneto in the second episode turning his back on his old goals and trying to listen to charles bc of his grief and in episode 8 he’s just angry that he even tried and shows how he is resorting to turning his back on humanity and charles’ moral code

Ok, I gotta get something off my chest. PLEASE don't take this as a 'well actually' post, because it's not. I am just expressing how that particular scene in Episode 8 made me feel.
I've seen A LOT of people thirsting over the shots of Magneto in the last episode (for understandable reasons, all you need is eyes and good tastes). And hey, outside of the context, but also as a result of the intention behind the shot - a fetishized display - I'd be 'I see what you did and I appreciate what I see'. If anything, this is an indication that there had to have been queer people involved in the production of the show, because there is a fine line to walk here and queer creators know how to do that better than anyone else.
BUT I need to speak about the levels of discomfort those shots made me go through. Magneto is depicted as EXPOSED, disempowered, and humiliated in all those moments, and it's terrifying. It's like a punch to the gut each time we revisit his condition, but it's also meant to inflict guilt upon the viewer for well... enjoying the sight. He is shackled and collared, his prisoner number is on display, and he is crucified in front of screens! In front of watchers! In front of nations and in front of people that are turned on by a power dynamic that would see those that they fear or hate in chains.
I cannot express what power those moments hold. Once he is freed, his anger, his pain, his thirst for blood feel personal, feel well... justified. You see him sending the world to hell and you can't do anything but say 'good riddance'.

enemy/old friends means that your photos hang together on the wall at the entrance to your home, which makes sense.

xmen ‘97 writers really screwed magneto over first he thought his best friend died, then he was attacked while on trial, then got his ass beat by madelyne, then witnessed a genocide against his people for the second time, then was kidnapped and experimented on AND THE SERIES ISNT EVEN FINISHED YET
