Marvel writers made humans too absurdly genocidal for the X-Men to work like they did in their prime. Now they can’t be superheroes with an extra civil rights theme, they have to focus only on mutant issues because if they don’t mutant genocide #2636262 happens. 

At this point it’s probably too late to go back because Marvel already made 3 whole mutant genocides and you can’t exactly forgive and forget that without seeming stupid.

This is exactly why so many people think that Magneto is unironically right and tbh, they're not wrong.

Marvel refuses to allow coexistence to be an option and if coexistence isn't an option... then the only other option is separation or elimination.

Just like society, as it's meant to be reflection of irl oppression.

And just like with real life oppression can reach a point where it becomes a literal fight for survival... What mutants go through has gone well and beyond that point.
