Would you be pro-mutant or anti-mutant?

Childhood is being pro-mutant and standing with social outcasts and minorities with cool superpowers.

Adulthood is realizing those people with cool powers are majority cishet, and use their privilege to commit murder and destruction on a daily basis.

If we're gonna go around murking people just cause they happened to get their powers by puberty or whatever then we best start going after super powered people in general

Depends on which kinda mutants I'd meet first. If I met the X-Men or some other cool, good looking superhero mutants, I'd be all for them. If all I ever met were the ones who can't control their powers, the ones who turn into swarms of killer bees when they sneeze or something, then I'd be all FUCK THE MUTIES.

I'm anti asshole. Some rando mutant with a tail or webbed feet is minding their own business I'm probably gonna give them a second look, I admit it, but I'm gonna go about my own business. Some stuck up asshole bitch of a telepath starts screaming at the rest of the world about how they're unfairly treated for raping people's minds they need to burn.

I feel bad for the mutants like Artie in 80s X-Factor. He was a normal kid until he turned 11, then when the early stages of puberty started to set in, he basically turned into a mute 11-year-old version of a harlequin baby who retained all of his faculties and was basically just a prisoner in his own body.

Pro-mutant, but pro-registration.

I'd be against all super powered people except the extremely intelligent ones because their invention can benefit humanity. The problem is that it won't stop the bad guys from giving themselves super powers or the numerous alien threats, and without heros who will stop them? Pandoras box had been opened so you kinda have to live with it unfortunately.

Would be neutral. Mutants have a right to exist and continue being mutants if that's what they desire. The mutant vaccine should also be available and accessible for those that don't want to be a mutant and want to return to being a normal person. The mutant vaccine should also be used against dangerous violent mutants. If they cant be responsible with their mutant powers, they don't deserve to have those mutant powers.

Mutation is neither inherently positive or negative. Like all change, it can be for better or for worse.

There should be mandatory x-gene testing for every child, and if you test positive you are assigned a case file to give you regular checkups to see how your mutation is coming along. Once your power has manifested, you are subjected to mandatory evaluation and training to control it. This serves two purposes: it identifies what powers people HAVE and keeps a registry of them and earmarks which ones are perhaps too dangerous to be allowed to roam free, and it means that everyone who DOES have powers is released back into civilian life with an understanding of how it works and how to use it safely. A kid with a gun is dangerous enough without the kid being ignorant of gun safety.

Mutants with a history of mental health problems, or with powers that are either uncontrollable or inherently destructive in nature, are given inhibitor collars with remote monitoring on them. Removing or disabling your inhibitor is against the law and prompts an immediate kill squad deployment, because the presumption until proven otherwise is that you disabled it with malicious intent. If the mutant cure is available, that might be used instead both as nonvoluntary power suppression and as an opt-in for anyone who would rather just not deal with the collars.

The vast majority of mutants are fine. No reason to go after them, just figure out what they can do, train them in basic power responsibility, and send them back out into the world. But we can't just IGNORE that sometimes a 12 year old ends up with the ability to rain meteors from the sky or can turn into a kaiju, and that if we do nothing its basically inevitable that they kill thousands of people if that power ever gets used even by accident.

You don't know that, actually. The fantastic four got THEIR powers from cosmic rays, and the offspring of 'can stretch' and 'forcefields' was 'reality bending wizard'.
Just because Peter got his powers from a spider bite doesn't mean you have any reason to believe that his kids won't have some wild mutation.

Once again, X-fags proving that they don't read anything but X-shit. People AREN'T fine with Spider-man. Plenty of people buy into him being a menace. People protest the Avengers and the only reason they're allowed to act at all is because they were closely with a government body. The entire military has it out for Hulk. The Fantastic Four are beloved figures but only because they made the effort to be so. This is the problem with mutants. They cry about how nobody likes them but never give anyone a reason to. They act in secret and if they ever do explain themselves they repeat the same villain rhetoric their enemies do.

Because the X-gene lets people do things that we otherwise cannot currently replicate. Someone like Iceman is a fucking *goldmine*, the shit he can do is impossible. Forget fighting crime, the industrial applications of his powers are incredible.
Every new mutation brings something we can learn. Wolverine's DNA holds the secret to regeneration. Mystique's tells us that full body transformation is possible. Etc. If we can study mutants and figure out how their powers work, we can make technology that might one day be able to do the same, advancing humans cience by leaps and bounds. Nearly EVERYTHING in science and biochem started with figuring out how to make natural processes happen on purpose, this is just a new ground floor to build off from.

Also, the x-gene mutations are going to keep happening around the world whether we want them to or not. non mutant parents regularly give birth to mutant kids. trying to pretend that we can just wait for the problem to go away is a fool's errand, this is the reality of future generations and we need to adapt or die.

Wouldn't this cause a lot of accidental deaths via false positives if something trips the battery inside the collar or interrupts the signal like if you're on a plane or otherwise far away from any cell towers?
>>
Honestly the muties can be shown very negatively in modern comics
>>
>>155299409
Deployment doesn't mean they have to kill, just that they are prepared to. They can kick in the door and then not shoot if the mutant is not being antagonistic.
Though I suppose given the state of the american police system, the idea of the authorities not immediately opening fire is actually more fantastical than the concept of superpowered mutants would ever be.
>>
>>155299534
On purpose, though?
Anyone who wasn't a psychopath saw Krakoa as an insane death cult of megomaniacs, but marvel apparently genuinely thought that we would be on board with that and see them as the same lovable x-men.

I fucking despise them I think this superhero team and as much as Marvel pushes them as le heckin progressive minorities but if you look at them under any other lens anyone can see the concept is kinda offensive to actually persecuted minorities
I really hate it when some work does that thing of like using some sort of fictional race or construct as an allegory for real life racism when it just doesnt activly apply because of the differences in setting
Detroit become human is a great example of this I like the characters but rhe plot turns into a mess because they try to use robots being oppressed as an allegory for black people being oppressed when both are completely different concepts and robots come with their own baggage of being artificial beings meant to be built and sold who are completely different from humans
Similarly the X Men doesnt work as a way to represent persecuted minorities because even if theyre hated and lynched they have fucking superpowers that could potentially put others in danger
I would not feel fucking safe in a society where a guy can just be born with the capacity to level an entire city block with his laser eyes. I would not feel fucking safe in a society where a guy has the capacity to acess my memories without my consent and control my head. These people NEED to be regulated and watched by principle and the fact of their mere existence and continued existence on this earth
It's not comparable to saying about the oppression of black or hispanic people IRL because the whole point of being against that is arguing that there are no real biological or psychological differences between them when mutants are the complete opposite because you cant really blame anyone for wanting to exist in a society without people who can freeze everything in their way who might just go manic one day
