Some humans have more access to guns, organized violence, and so on than others, so... Seems like a pretty apt comparison? I

That's not comparable.

There is no human on Earth who can wipe out the entire population of the planet in seconds. Going "Well some humans have easier access to guns than others" doesn't make that allegory gel.

Hell I've literally never ever even heard anyone claim that the mutants in X-men are an allegory for gun rights and Senator Kelly is a pesky woke librul trying to tak mah rights away.

Quick question: Do you think womens toilets are predjuice since they don't have urinals while mens toilets do?

You seem hellbent on this weird "If something is different then it's prejudice to treat it differently." even if it makes absolutely no sense at all.

You picked the 90/10% examples. If tomorrow 10% of French people suddenly had the power to destroy all life on Earth within seconds if they chose to, you believe it would be predjudice and racism to react to that in anyway? And we'd just have to accept it until one of them killed everything? That's just being dumb.

This is why it doesn't work well as an allegory. Jim and Bryan having gay sex down the corridor from you won't end all life on Earth. Being afraid of them idiotic.

Jim and Bryan down the corridor could end all life on Earth if they chose or if anyone anywhere drugged them and you just have to pray to a God you don't believe in that they don't? Yeah being afraid of them is now common sense. In fact not being afraid of what they are capable of is pretty idiotic.

Do you think people being afraid of Homerlander is idiotic? Because that dude can't even end all life in seconds.
