I mean, I was like, there's no way Erik doesn't understand the systemic nature of fascism/Nazism *when he lived through it* (and yes, even as a sheltered superhero in training) and sees it *exclusively* as a personal injustice done to him. Because that's just...fundamentally stupid. And historically wrong. But the film really just is that stupid @-@ aw damn.
Yeah, that was my response basically.
How can you live through that and then fundamentally agree with its ideology? Not in anyway that the film is able to present credibly, to me.
Yes. It is a possible reaction, but the movie did not sell me on it as Erik's reaction.
