Suspension of disblief n all to keep the setting relevant but there are aliens, mutants, robots, fey, all manor of insane, wild, legitimately dangerous walking talking nukes, but this different shade of your own species? "Those are the problem." Give me a fucking break. There's a reason the X-men were allegory for civil rights and not literally dealing with civil rights on a racial level. Why wouldn't regular racism still be an issue? Even if they were aliens, mutants, robots, etc. around, there is no reason to believe people would stop distrusting or disliking other groups of their own species. You think if aliens landed tomorrow, people will suddenly start liking Muslims? It's entirely possible issues pertaining to African-Americans would continue, even with addition of fantastical elements existing. http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_uZMPVFAFJD8/Sc-zVoTDjuI/AAAAAAAAB7c/XXpchHVNkL8/s320/3.jpg --- http://i.imgur.com/loj3Iz4.jpg <cite>AmericaTheBrave posted [p:879905686] in Marvel: Bl...
