In a universe where literal gods walk the streets of New York every day, the fact that mutants have superpowers doesn't make them that special in their potential for death and destruction. This is the point. It works as an allegory because, as far as the Marvel universe goes, mutants are no more dangerous than other superpowered non-mutants who walk the street every day. And yet mutants, specifically, are prejudiced against. You can't just apply mutants to IRL standards. In their own universe, there are tons of non-mutants who are just as powerful as they are, yet don't get treated with the same prejudice. --- Seplito Nash, Smelling Like the Vault since 1996 Step FOUR!
