That's my problem with the story. It's an anti-prejudice story in which the ubermensch actually exists. You might as well be asking, "What if Scandinavians were smarter and stronger than everyone else?"

Most mutants have trash powers that negatively harm them.
It just so happens basically all the x-men have superhero powers. Also, you are comparing them to non-superhero humans. Compare them to like Iron Man and they are not superior. ... Copied to Clipboard!

And like, imagine if mutants were real and behaved in the manner seen in the comics or movies? It would be a terrifying world to live in and anti-mutant sentiment would not be that unreasonable lmao.

Magneto is right that humans will never accept them and fear or hate or greed will cause them to genocide mutants every time. Humans even love to genocide other humans so it's REALLY not a stretch. Xavier is right that positive outreach can help. But it's never going to be enough.

And now they've become the extremists humanity always feared them becoming and the only reason they haven't gone to war is because out of story marvel has things to market I have no idea what's holding them back in story when it''s simple, either eradicate humanity or humanity will eradicate you.
To think, something that was once a nod to racism turned into genocide vs genocide may the best race win. What a terrible lesson through I suppose it's way more than just skin color here compared to reality. Reminds me of all that shit elves and half elves get in the Tales of series any game with half elves has them treated absolutely horrid by the populace --- A worthless existence ...

It's about not being ashamed of who they are. This would allow mutants like Cyclops and Rogue to come to terms with their perceived dangerous/cursed powers so they might learn to better control the abilities for the betterment and safety of everyone around. ...

Remember in the movie where Rogue is excited about a cure that would stop her from murdering everyone she touched and Storm, goddess of weather, tells her they don't need a cure because they're perfect just the way they are?

That's really fucked up No. The Fantastic Four picked a fight with the X-Men as they assumed the X-Men kidnapped their son and daughter. It was actually Doctor Doom who kidnapped their kids, although it was after their kids stuck on board an X-Men ship. Also Mr Richards invented and used a device to suppress his son's x-gene so he had no mutant powers, and didn't register as a mutant on mutant related scans. ... Copied to Clipboard!
