For example, Mystique being transgender and Morph being non-binary.

    Did you not watch the 2000’s X-Men movies that were thinly veiled gay rights discussions?

    Or the original comics which were anti-religious persecution comics?

    Or the entire history of X-Men being treated like minorities targeted by conservative society and pulpit bangers?

    It’s literally the core of the comic.

    Since when is Mystique trans?

    But more importantly, why should we care? People and society change, pop culture is nothing more than a reflection of that. As long the writing is good and the character is interesting, then maybe we should stop being so fucking concerned about the gender identity of completely fictional characters.

    I don’t think about politics at all while watching movies. But I don’t make politics my identity either

        Yeah, crawl over to truth social so you can stay in your nice comfy echo chamber. Wouldn’t want anyone rolling up on you with meaningful information or anything
