    Dude There's like 3 laws lol
    1. Respect this sacred Land
    A law we humans should honestly adopt...but if a Mutant is going around eFFin up Krakoa (a living being) I doubt the other Mutants are gonna miss them.
    2. Make More Mutants
    Not sure how a Mutant can break this one. Use some form of birth control? Abstain from the Krakoa lovefest? Oon Krakoa it's your right to choose....I'm sure Longshot or Megggan will me more than happy to take up the slack
    3. Don't murder Humans.
    Well that's pretty much a capital offense everywhere but if a Mutant thinks they'll stand a better chance at a fair trail with a human judge after killing a human....

    What! Currently only 53 countries have a death penalty. I sincerely hope that number reduces to zero eventually.

    Yes yes yes.
    I dunno about most folks but for ME -- I find it RIDICULOUSLY easy to NOT murder anyone AND respect my home/property/environment. Its the reproduction thing that's got me flustered.
    Can Krakoan's opt out of that one?
    Like, "Hey hey hey Council folk -- so I'm doing SOOOOO good with not killing anyone and I give all the MOST TLC to beautiful Krakoa, but I don't wanna get anybody pregnant, so...... skip? Best 2 out of 3 ?"

    LOL.
    Somehow I don't think mutants are mandated/forced to procreate, though. That should still be an individual choice. Regardless of what is misconstrued in these threads, Krakoa is not a dictatorship.

    Yeah, "make more mutants" has a few different meanings with the likes of Sinister and The Five around.

    Exactly. Traditional procreation is only one of many options for "Making More Mutants."

    I was talking with another user, and I think I nailed down why this new status quo bothers me: It's a logical continuation of how humans act in the X-comics.

    X-comic humans come in exactly two varieties: apathetic onlooker who just wants to not get involved, or KKK-level hyper racist who wants all mutants to die horribly. From that perspective, the need for Attilan... I mean Krakoa makes more sense.

    But it also drops any pretense of the X-Men still standing for oppressed minorities, which bothers me. Imagine during the civil rights movement, someone proposed a happy and healthy island with resources for all African-Americans to live and be free of being attacked or oppressed. They just wouldn't be Americans anymore. I can't imagine there would be ANY support for that from the African-American community.

    Lmao I cant think of one person from a minority group that hasnt dreamed once in their life of flying off to a place where they wouldnt have to deal with racism/homophobia/whatwillhaveyou and just be surrounded by ppl like themselves.
