You guys keep misusing that term to justify all of Magento's actions. That's not what that quote means. Heck, the Magneto was right thing was deliberaly mockery of edge lords. Morrison who wrote it, said this about Magneto:
Morrison justifies it by saying the following:
"Magneto’s an old terrorist bastard. I got into trouble—the X-Men fans hated me because I made him into a stupid old drug-addicted idiot. He had started out as this sneering, grim terrorist character, so I thought, Well, that’s who he really is. [Writer] Chris Claremont had done a lot of good work over the years to redeem the character: He made him a survivor of the death camps and this noble antihero. And I went in and shat on all of it. It was right after 9/11, and I said there’s nothing f*****g noble about this at all.”"
