    Default Prejudice towards mutants

    What organisations, groups, rascists out there absolutely hate mutants because they are mutants ?.
    I am a Marvel fan preferably cosmic storylines, especially Thanos or Dark Phoenix related, when both the Avengers and the X-Men are involved count me in, loved the original Uncanny Avengers series.
    Not a fan of any of the new characters.

    Isn't Orchis more based on "fear" of mutants?

    Though then again:
    Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.

    Also it seems the general fear of mutants, which in a narrative issues is actualy understandable given the nightmarish abilities many mutants have (and often unable to controll them initialy), is what empowers the many smaller scale anti-mutant groups (often quickly formed mobs).
    Because while most who fear mutants might not actualy hate them, said fear can create the feeling in people who just want to find someone to unleash violence on, that it's socialy "okay" to attack them since people are less likely to come to their support or defence.

    In this case it's difficult to tell if such mobs or gangs are really hating mutants or just using them as ideal targets to get away with harming them.

    That distinction between "hate" and "fear" or "hate" and "ignorance" has always seemed like it was designed to make oppressors look better. To the oppressed they're at the wrong end of the violence anyways so it's not like it really matters.

    When the results of ignorance and evil are the same people really shouldn’t care about the difference it’s still terrible.

    Good points.

    Allright "violent opportunist" and "ignorant mobs" count to the "hate" mutants category.
