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.
>>155298408If 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
Pro sticking my dick into a mutant woman with big boobs
>>155298408Depends 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.
>>155298408I'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.
>>155298600I 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.
>>155298538It will quite literally kill you, anon
>>155298408anti not only are mutants walking nukes they're also all assholes
>>155298408It makes no sense to me to be anti-mutant but to be fine with other superpowered individuals like Spider-Man. Either you are against them all or you aren't.
>>155298408Pro-mutant, but pro-registration.
>>155298749I'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.
>>155298408Rogue can stayThe rest can die
>>155298408Would 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.
>>155298408Mutation 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.
>>155298749>It makes no sense to me to be anti-mutant but to be fine with other superpowered individuals like Spider-Manyou don't have to worry about Spider-Man's child be born with the power to cause everyone in his town to spontaneously combust
>>155298823
>>155298853>you don't have to worry about Spider-Man's child be born with the power to cause everyone in his town to spontaneously combustYou 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.
>>155298858Erm. This feels a little transphobic??
>>155298858...imagine having an artist hand this in to be published and telling you that no, this is the finished copy and not just a rough draft.
>>155298408Name 1 thing wrong with power registration
I'd be>the genetic explanation of mutants is retarded, Homo superior does not exist and mutants are not another species
>>155298823>that last bitalright, i guffawed
>>155298408>i am a mutantpro mutant>i am not a mutantanti mutantsimple as
>>155298930Government bad
>>155298930It applies to mutates, who aren't always psychos that need to be on constant watch like mutants.
>>155298930For the same reason the whole age verification bullshit they are trying to force is bad.
>>155298850Why not just silence the X-gene?
>>155298749>It makes no sense to me to be anti-mutant but to be fine with other superpowered individuals like Spider-Man.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.
>>155298408Pro-mutant (until they start building Mutant Israel), anti-psychic always.
>>155298408I don't want them cured, I want them DEAD.
>>155298725what's the downside
>>155298663>I'm anti asshole.I'm pro asshole. You're oppressing my beliefs. Billions must die.
>>155298911Imagine missing the point this fucking hard
>>155299016Because 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.
>>155298850>Removing or disabling your inhibitor is against the law and prompts an immediate kill squad deploymentWouldn'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
>>155299409Deployment 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.
>>155299534On 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.
>>155299550The only reason to do it was to make central control better
>>155298930You want Trump and Israel in charge of Mutants and Meta-Humans?
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 minoritiesI 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 settingDetroit 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 humansSimilarly 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 dangerI 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 earthIt'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
>>155298408Pro-mutant, if anything we should be genesplicing an X-gene into everyone who doesn't already have one. When everyone's a mutant, no one will be.
>>155298408pro-mutant if furry teen ninjas who love human menanti-mutant if human minorities with god complexes and persecution fetishes
>>155298508>and use their privilege to commit murder and destruction on a daily basis.The guy who does that is Jewish, though.
>>155299807BASED!
>>155298408Anti.Humans should never have that level of power.
I'm Pro-Mutant in any world where Domino exists
>>155298408I will conveniently change the subject whenever it’s brought up and forever live as a fence-sitter
I’m okay with normal mutants and firmly believe we can coexist. What I am against is the mutie supremacists who insist they are the “next step of evolution” and call themselves Homo Superior and shit. Like I’m no big brain science man, but I’m pretty sure that’s not how evolution works with how completely random mutant powers are.
>>155299034True. Fantastic Four were already popular because they had the balls to explore the great unknown once. Reed also was quite open to how they got their powers, is great at public relations, while continuously fending off anomalies and minor alien invasions. Always funny how the mutants in Future Foundation were untouchable because of Reed.
