It's kinda funny, people made this same point decades ago, it was almost a slight in-joke regarding the franchise that yes, the allegory sucks the more you think about it. Now it's something super serious we all have to think abojt
Nuclear weapons are scary and all that, but cue up the image comparing Nagasaki in 1945 and Nagasaki now, and Detroit in 1945 and Detroit now. I'll take the nukes, thanks.
>That's because Nagasaki is so irradiated that humans can't live there, and no humans means that there's no one to frick the place up.
anon that bomb was detonated above Matsuyama-machi and there is tons of shit there. For one thing, they built a baseball field. People don't live there out of respect for the dead.
Whites let nonwhites' influence happen. You can point fingers all you want but if you're going to argue that whites are superior then you need to accept the responsibility that you let this happen and did nothing (jk I know you aren't white, but white people did let this happen).
The X-men were originally an allegory for young people with new ideas. From that frame of reference it all makes sense. Gay and black stuff was bolted on later, which is why it doesn't make sense.
Iron Man is practically a public figure and can be made accountable for his actions. Little Timmy the Mutant can accidentally irradiate a whole city block once his powers manifests, and heaven forbid the X-Men get to him before the authorities do, because they'll induct and indoctrinate him and tell him that his power is a gift.
>rich person >made accountable for his actions
kek.
also if little timmy the mutant can accidentally irradiate a city block then maybe for the sake of the public you should form a lynch mob to terrorize him to the point where he want to do it on purpose
It kinda does, when you get down to the brass tacks of where their powers come from, how they're propagated in others, how you can limit their usage ethically, etc. etc. The fact that Iron Man is just a dude does well to highlight that
>It kinda does, when you get down to the brass tacks of where their powers come from, how they're propagated in others, how you can limit their usage ethically
Not really.
Like I said, plenty of super hero with powerfull power and super villains too. So no, he doesn't have a point singling out the mutants.
Yeah, but those super heroes aren't mutants. The nature of how they have their powers and how they propagate creates a different context.

That's my point. >The nature of how they have their powers and how they propagate creates a different context.
The only context being created is unjustified prejudice.

That's not an earnest weighing in on the topic, that's just mutant sympathy. A Stark Sentinel has been dispatched to the address associated with your IP to correct this issue.
I want a miniseries about a group of malformed mutants who are resentful about mutant advocacy and supremacy groups. Where some of the mutants are resentful because their lives were tolerable until the X-Men started riling people up, and other mutants being resentful over the Brotherhood's rhetoric because their powers are either silly or even impede their lives.
We have three threads in the catalog on this very topic.

I dont want him to die but I wish he would stop posting twitter threads
I want him to die and I wish he would stop posting Twitter threads, mostly because Twittergays are subhumans

but how can we lose such a great thinker. no one has ever considered their point in the 60 years of xmen comics
You homosexuals are bumping the thread by complaining about how much the thread sucks.
true
Why flip the poles completely when you could simply nudge them 1 degree over and cause a slow collapse

True, white people's fatal flaw is too much empathy and compassion. You can see this in the way they obsess over pets and the like.
Yes
They work as an allegory for minorities to a certain extent but it kind of falls apart when you look at it
It doesn't fall apart, it just makes it obvious why being against minorities irl is morally correct.

I always just thought it was for people who weren’t normalgays
No, he doesn't.
The Marvel universe has tons of non-mutants hero roaming the streets. Iron Man hismelf is a walking arsenal.
They hate mutants because they are born that way, not because of what dangers they might create.
Iron Man is practically a public figure and can be made accountable for his actions. Little Timmy the Mutant can accidentally irradiate a whole city block once his powers manifests, and heaven forbid the X-Men get to him before the authorities do, because they'll induct and indoctrinate him and tell him that his power is a gift.
there is more than Iron Man. The fantastic fours have kids who could blown up the city if they are left unsupervised, for example.
>rich person

kek.

Yeah but like, Iron Man's also just a dude.
Doesn't change my point. Plenty of non-mutant super-powered dudes in the Marvel universe.

DESPITE
Compare the streets of India to the streets of a white city, then get back to me you filthy street shitter.
frick, waited 60 seconds to re-read your post and I read it wrong, frick. sorry dude.

>twitter thread
Or if the majority of violent crime could be attributed to that one group then it'd be natural that others avoid them
>he doesn't know our melanin gives us superpowers
