This "movie review" is being passed around my Facebook by some of my more left leaning friends. The review contains spoilers, so read carefully.

One section that made me

quote:

In fact, the whole premise of the movie is that Mystique is so awesome and effective at identifying her targets and following through on her plans that she literally changes the course of human history.

Of course, it's a terrible future. Because she created it and she's a woman. Or maybe I'm reading too much into that. Nevermind, the important thing is that Wolverine is sent back in time to get the band back together and change her mind.

To be fair, even most liberals hate feminists. Even feminists hate other feminists for not being feminist enough.

They are pretty much the sole unifying force left in America.

To be even more fair to the feminists, this review was written by a male science fiction writer. He may feel that he is a victim of Male Privilege.

Does not compute. The only people that I know who are left leaning are family.

To be fair, even most conservatives hate racists. Even racists hate other racists for not be racist enough.

This statement isn't like the one you quoted. Racism exists throughout the political spectrum. Feminism, on the other hand, is a liberal mindset.

Just wait until you are married and have to deal with someone who cant think right every day of your life.

Mystique was going rogue and killing lots of people and neither Charles nor Erick wanted the future she made.

So they stopped her.

Where the sexism came in I'll never know.

I am sorta concerned that since jennefir lawrence exploded mystique will now have to be a huge character, and they wills top focusing on the more traditional leads.

Mystique brought about an apocalyptic future and she has a vagina. Don't overthink it.

I didn't think the killings changed anything, it was her getting her arse caught that was the problem...
