Date: 29 Jul 2011 09:55 pm (UTC)I also don't understand the absolutely bewildering stupidity going on with this. Even if you're a complete dickbag and don't care that erasing a character's Jewishness is racist fuckwittery, Magneto? Serious, Magneto, of all characters in modern media? That's like watching Fiddler on the Roof and being all "LOL WRITING FANFIC WHERE NOBODY'S JEWISH." Like, if you are even capable of giving five minutes' thought to the character at all, how is it even humanly possible to miss the fact that the combination of being a mutant and his experience as a Jew during the Holocaust is the entire explanation for why Magneto is the person he is?
God. Just, how? Like, on a much more minor scale, that would be like writing Harry Potter fanfic where Harry isn't a wizard, not because you're writing an AU, but because you honestly don't think that Harry being a wizard matters to his characterization.
Just, you know, with bonus racist fuckwittery. It reminds me of that Inception kink prompt where Eames is wearing a cross necklace that dangles down in Arthur's face while they're having sex. Hostility issues coming out in your "kink", much?
