    Franklin was in Krakoa with friends in the last FF issue. I think the main issue here is some people are so obsessed with hating the run that they started thinking that things they want to be true actually happened or happen in the actual books

    I think you got the wrong idea here, people dislike it BECAUSE Franklin should have friends that are more than willing to invite him even if he's not a mutant, there's no reason at all for Xavier to message Franklin he's not allowed for not being mutant. he can break the news that they can't fix Franklin since he's not a mutant and so he wouldn't waste his time looking/asking there, but he's not barred from going in if one of the mutants friendly with him invites him in.

    Well the story is still going on sooo who knows if that's what actually happened.

    But anyway Artie and Leech are with the FF I can't remember what other mutants Franklin chills with

    But Xavier doesn't want Cain to enter Krakoa because ... well, it shouldn't be necessary to explain why Xavier doesn't want Cain around.

    Actually it should be, because one of the last things Cain did before this relaunch was help the X-men out in Limbo. He hasn't been a card carrying villain for a long while, and is probably a better person than half the council. Including Xavier.

    Maybe Shadowcat also want to meet with him again... But she can't use the gates so she need somebody else for allowing Franklin to go back to Krakoa using the gates.

    Blame that on Slott....who may or may not have ran his Xavier/not Mutant Franklin plot and dialogue by HiX-Man before the issue went to publish.
    For discussion sake lt's say he did...and HiX-Man said: "Yeah...whatever, Slotty. Knock yourself out. I had already abandoned that useless plot anyways."

    I am speaking of purely personal reasons. Xavier doesn't want Cain around.

As things stand, really only Wolverine and Dust are the most believable in making a statement of being a part of both cultures since they still walk in both worlds.
    ive only seen people projecting that onto scenes tbh

    I have an answer for u : a lack of collaboration / respect for the work of others behind the scenes

    Creating a new Mutant-Krakoan culture isn't the same as assimilation. The only thing that's really being forced on mutants is the new Krakoa language that is automatically downloaded in their mind once they pass a gate. Nowhere was it stated that you must leave all your culture and heritage behind once you choice to live on Krakoa. Some mutants choice to leave all of it behind because of the persecution, pain and ostracisation they've suffered and start anew but it isn't true for all mutants. From what we've seen throughout the books and across issues is that new rituals have been created (resurrection protocols, crucible and etc) and mutants can pick and choose what part of Krakoa they want to adopt, mutants can still live outside of Krakoa if they choose, they can still come and go ass they please, and they're free to practise whatever religion or culture they want. The only rules they're obligated to follow are the Krakoan laws of no killing any life. Kitty getting a viking funeral instead of a Shiva and no Kaddish recital has more to do with the writer being non jewish and not doing any sort of research on jewish funeral and rites than Krakoa assimilation.

    Magneto's opinions are not the official culture of Krakoa.

    Magneto and Xavier basically run Krakoa even if you dont include all the Moira behind the scenes stuff. How is he not representative of their government?

    Before I start I just want to let you know, all respect.

    If you want to get deep into it(which I know is not really necessary and probably pretty annoying but I’m going to do it anyways)a god(not GOD but a god)is by some definitions a being that is placed above what the current status quo for average persons are(so by some people’s definition, such as Magneto...who believes and always has believed even when he was with the X-Men...that mutants are superior than humans...this is something he would say and goes along with his character), other definitions just an immortal being(which mutants are, yes if one of the five is killed then they are no longer immortal...but just because you can be killed doesn’t mean you aren’t immortal if that makes sense? Such as Mister Sinister is immortal but he can be killed, Vampires, depending on the circumstances and which universe, are also immortal, but can still be killed. And immortality is different from invulnerability and being an external)

    And yes, Magneto is pretty much one of the big head of government hit he doesn’t represent everyone. We don’t see Wolverine marching into Central Park and being like ‘I am a God! Bow down before me!’ He’s not Thor and yes I know Thor has progressed and changed and is no longer like that...and when he does say things like that nowadays it’s pretty much a joke. Heads of government don’t speak for everyone in their country or sometimes even a majority of the country. Because sometimes let’s say if they were voted in people only agree with part of their polices and not all of them. Or you voted for someone else, but democracy won out and you got a person you didn’t want. Such as the U.S(a place I live)in IRL, not everyone in America supports Donald Trump(I don’t mean to bring politics into this this is just a respectful discussion about comic books, which aren’t real). And back when Obama was in Office not everyone supported him. If you want to go back in time some to the 20th Century, not everyone in Russia supported Jospeh Stalin, not everyone in Italy supported Mussolini. Good bad, evil, or somewhere in-between there will always be some(or a lot)or people who don’t support heads of state, or they support them but not EVERYTHING they say.

    So yeah...that’s just an explanation kind of about your point...basically me going into partially-unceccesarioy deep detail.

    What does that have to do with Krakoan culture? Has he been setting up Tiki bars and practicing the Crucible at every international meeting he attends?
    The Krakoans are EEEvil!

    THEY MUST BE STOPPED!
