Yes, all of that. I read Nussbaum's review and others complaining about this issue and I kept on thinking: But the movie's all about how Charles fucked up! Like present day Professor X is still living down his asinine actions of his youth and the way he failed the two people he loved most completely! And nothing in the text really made a case for Charles's pov--it was Erik's pretty much right all the way!
XMFC? that's a bit long. Just FC?
I literally cringed when he said they're just following orders, and while the never again took the overall problematic Holocaust analogy/use a bit too far for me, it made sense PERSONALLY for Erik!
