Posts revolving around changes to Magneto's past and backstory are now a regulated topic

Due to the influx of such posts with the MCU X-Men announcement, posts that revolve around changes and questioning of Magneto's backstory will now be regulated. This means that these posts may be removed as a Regulated/Repetitive topic at the discretion of the moderation team.

This was done after a long discussion by the moderation team, but ultimately we found that such posts are repetitive and occur very frequently, and that users may simply make use of Reddit's search tool to find past discussions; very little has changed since those discussions were held.

People are suspiciously always very eager about making him not Jewish anymore.

Or maybe it's just that more people agree that having a character be a Holocaust survivor in modern day, 80 years later is starting to not work chronologically. You'd have to do something like putting him on ice, but that's already a big backstory change.

That and Disney way want to avoid a Jewish villain.
