    Question What is the difference between privileges of Capain America and Cyclops?

    Classic Cyclops was the epitome of the generic white mutant male lead.
    However he is the prime target for racism.
    Cyclops was the ultimate defender of his race. Marvel killed him off and tried to (unsuccessfully) make fans think he was the bad guy.
    Cyclops the complete opposite of Cap's privilege and he’s a damn near average human. He trained himself to basically be what captain America was made into.
    Captain America is the combination of science &
    Marvel's Golden Boy privilege.
    He's the epitome of "white privilege" tell you/mutants what is good for you and your race/people.
    Literally Steve can tell anyone what to do, and they have no real recourse to say no. He has nobody that can say no.. only person I've seen resist him is Cyclops. So, it took a white mutant male to oppose Captain America privilege/supremacy.
    I think they both have a white male leader privilege.
    But besides this Steve also has US's golden boy privilege / power.
    Anyway. Just thinking out loud here.

    Jean really is the worst character in Marvel, isn't she?
    Scemma forever Triangle never.
    Scott needs an alpha female like Bettsy.
    What woman wouldn't be attracted to Scott? He's 100% alpha male who tells the Avengers to go f*#& themselves.
    I want cyclops back free from any ginger women to be his own man.
    Logically..
    TeenClops should have lusted for Emma & Cuckoos. Especially Stepford Cuckoos! They're teenage triplet clones of his hottest ex, how could he not be?

    Agreed. This is nothing short of a hate induced thread and nothing good will come of it.

    Please.

    Ignoring everything aside, their differences as leaders is that most of the time people support captain America for what he represents while Cyclops has to face an increasingly hateful world that despises mutants. Even during civil war many people supported captain America

    Yeah, he's more of an old creep preying on teenage girls since he's over 100 years old, Cyclops is more into older chicks like the millions year old phoenix or "really 27 years old" Emma

    Captain America is Marvels Staple leader type, Scott does come off as a Cap copy. but you can always tell that was the case. Cap gets more dirty swept under the rug and people seem to forgive him because he's Marvel poster boy. Cyclops is the knock off, so they can do more stuff to his character and we just got to deal with it.
    The dream is dead, so wake up and fight!

    The Captain America explains how Marvel wants the whole world to see America: like a perfect Saint wrapped in a flag.

    Captain America would be the classic stereotype of United States. So anyone challenges him will be in trouble. Anyone who dares to challenge him is deprived of all they have... even their lives, and will be identified as a terrorist and a villain. So they must be defeated, even if they were right.

    Doesn't matter if 'the flag guy' is a fascist, a hypocrite, a murderer... he's the guy wrapped in the American flag.

    Scott is the only one who ever really challenged 'the flag guy', the status quo... and 'the Saint Captain America' is the status quo.

    The status quo is a blond man, with blue eyes and the Marvel Universe wants the world to see Captain America as a blond Jesus Christ wrapped in the American flag.

    Poor Scott Summers, he never had a chance.
