#MagnetoWasRight
Not to stray away from the thread too much, but I think what makes Magneto a compelling villain/anti-hero is that his philosophy makes sense, only his (old/classic) method didn't. But yeah, just because the X-Men aren't twirling proverbial mustaches (or attacking New York City), doesn't mean they're not buying into or supporting mutant supremacy.
To me, Cyke's change (as well as Utopia) made sense in the context of decimation. I might be recalling incorrectly, but I remember a panel from back during the San Fran / pre-Utopia days where Cyke mentions to Emma how their new method was only temporary, or something along those lines. Think it was in Dark X-Men: The Confession. Krakoa, on the other hand, is built on mutant supremacy--- the notion that humans will always be jerks, while mutants are not only powerful but will also replace humanity, so might as well put the jerks in a corner while mutants rule the world. The last is hyperbole, of course.
But back to my point, instead of "doing the right thing no matter the cost", it became "the mutant species must survive at all costs", which was why the setup for AvX was juicy to me. Up until that point, Cyke maintained that he was protecting _all_ of Earth, but Gillen's run showed, during Unit's introduction, that if Hope was in trouble, Cyke would abandon everything to secure her.
