need people to pick up some modicum of critical thinking and wonder that maybe, it's possible, that the show is critiquing how it's always the same two men's dreams that come into conflict about how to move forward vs or with the rest of humanity ... and that maybe, just maybe, the answer could be (surprise!!) a secret third or even fourth option that doesn't include them?
because ororo did tell jean that they ought to believe not in a dream or for their gifts/powers... but in each other 👀
#xmen 97#im a charles hater too lol just to be clear#but his mansplaining of colonialism and imperialism in ep6 are important stuff#and mags is hurt and infuriated and sees no other hope#(this is why xmen red mags' dying soliloquy to storm is v important#he was critiquing his past decisions#which include this one)#they can both be wrong!!!!#and their kids are here to make new choices free from their mistakes!!#also lol i feel alone in liking that this is an ensemble show#my ship is not in this race so i have no gripes on that#and idk im a hopeless storm fan and im p happy with this adaptation of her????#given the constraints of a 10 episode season it's like#it's good???
