X-Men makes more sense as a gun control debate.
Mutants are feared because some of them can depopulate a neighborhood.
There are ways to take away mutant powers but they don't want to out of "rights".

>X-Men makes more sense as a gun control debate.
It’s rare I meet someone this stupid, and yet it always seems to be on Cinemaphile. Tell me, anon, why the normal civilians don’t just become mutants themselves? Why don’t the mutants that want to be normal simply choose to be normal? Surely that’s a choice they have if mutations are going to be used a metaphor for guns.
How does this fit in to times when mutants were an allegory for homosexuality?
"Normal" people don't want that power.
"Mutants" are who they are. They're either going to open carry with pride or conceal carry.
But there are mutants who do not want the power.
And there would be normies who would think having that power is cool. And open/concealed carry is not having power. Everyone has the power to own a gun. The people who do not just choose to not exercise it.
Even you cant make it work as an analogy.
>But there are mutants who do not want the power.
And they are shouted down by the people that do. Any time a cure pops up the ones that want it are shat on by the ones that won the mutant lottery
People with power are dangerous.
Meanwhile omg it's the avengers!
The Avengers were created before the right-wing trans narrative. They got hate in the beginning, same with the Fantastic Four but saving world a couple of hundred times will ender you others
The X-Men and Spider-Man act in secret that's another reason people hate them.
>X-Men makes more sense as a gun control debate.
This doesn't work because mutant powers will happen out of nowhere and nobody has any choice about getting them.
All of the heroes get their fair share of shit from civilains. Even the F4 despite Reed doing as much as he can to make sure this didnt happen.
The unfortunate thing about mutants is that there something of a reason to fear them. You'll never know who is a mutant before their powers activate and it could be something harmless or cause an accident that unintentionally injures hundreds of people. It's not like they do it on purpose, shit just happens and can happen at any time or any place.
No, no it doesn't unless you believe you spontaneously can grow a gun from your body at age 16 without a choice of taking it out.
>he doesn't have the gun spawning gene
Only rich kids have that.
Yet most school shooters have in common that they lack one parent and their economic situation is extremely poor. Even though they all have guns, body armor, and a truck all worth $20k or more.
Oh and of course, the subject was always known to the very wealthy FBI.
No no, rich kids don't get that gene. Poor kids with a well-documented history of psychopathic behavior that the FBI have been aware of for years have the "Spontaneously manifest several thousand dollars worth of firearms and ammo" X-gene.
The x gene is an allegory for MKUltra programming. You never know who amongst us could be one, and they could be dangerous and snap at any moment causing untold tragedies, but does that potential make them less human?
When you become of age, some get the "power" some don't.
This is objectively the dumbest most moronic post on this board right now. Congratulations, it's not an easy feat
>X-Men makes more sense as a gun control debate.
Yes. But Marvel writers are anti-guns so it's not allowed.
>There are ways to take away mutant powers but they don't want to out of "rights".
That's the thing, some of them DO want to give up their powers but the others won't let them out of misplaced sense of pride.
Kind of hard to relate to mutants being oppressed POC when those POC have nuclear eye beams that can level an entire city block. Humanity is right in this regard in having to repress mutants and their uncontrollable power. So making it a supremacy issue not only clouds underlining issues on why there is conflict to that of ignorance to that or logical fears of danger mutant powers bring.
X Men is literally written for children.
The point is they didn't ask for their powers, they just got a shit deal and now they're walking human catastrophes without any fault on their own.
If you stop taking everything literally maybe you could see a parallel with "this thing I am only causes pain for me and the people around me and everyone hates me for it but I never ask for it so all I have to do is learn to control it and use it for good" where the power is metaphorical.
>giving a frick about mutants when literal aliens try to conquer earth multiple times
sane people and govs would have bred them just for the sake of survival. Mutant gfs would be mandated
They hated him for telling the truth
I think mutants don't actually make a good analogy for anything if you think about it too hard, so the secret is to not really think about it
>X-Men makes more sense as a gun control debate.
Not even remotely. Not even with the most generous and superhuman of stretches can you make sense of that read of things.
