Anonymous asked: Continuing with the premise of the X-Man as a displaced group without a homeland angle is a slap in the face to the various peoples throughout history who have had a genuine struggle. There is no genuine struggle in storyline for the X-Men because it is impossible for the general public to determine whether or not someone has the X-Gene. Super powered people are accepted in the MU. You are trying to shoehorn in a distinction for plot purposes. I think it's deeply offensive.
Sorry you feel that way, but that’s essentially been the theme of X-MEN since 1963, so it’s not something we’re going to abandon. Maybe it’s just not the series for you.
Hahaha, no, the theme has been that they are oppressed/marginalized since 1963, throughout most if the silver age that theme wasn’t bothered with much, and afterwards writers did routinely dip into weird racism, like claiming that a bunch of passing people are “displaced without a homeland” etc etc
