<p dir="auto">Mutants vs humans, inhumans vs humans w/e. I know Marvel tries to create an allegory for us vs them human conflicts, but I just can not buy that in the real world, people would actually "unite" against other people who just so happen to have super powers. I mean obviously they would be afraid of those with dangerous powers, but there is just no way they would suddenly go all out fascist on anyone with a different gene.<br />
The reason for this is that every us vs them real life human conflict is based on commonalities vs differences. One group of people with shared interests, characteristics etc. feeling threatened by another group with common traits. But there are no common traits for humans just because they are not mutants, and mutants are way too different from one another to be universally hated because they happen to be unpredictable.<br />
So in real life, if say there is a conflict between racial group A and racial group B and the whole inhuman thing explodes - it's a hell of a lot more likely that inhumans will simply be absorbed into their respective racial groups and continue that conflict, rather than all the humans suddenly unite against all inhumans.<br />

<p dir="auto">I would like to move to the Earth you live on. Where there's no racism, no radical religious nuts protesting soldier funerals, no radicals using the internet to foster hatred, no tribal wars in Africa, no terrorism, no NSA etc. etc.<br />
I actually think it would be very likely that if we had mutants or inhumans or something that <em>some people</em> would take it as a threat and get radical. Remember, it's not everyone in the MCU - it's a very small percentage who are getting pushed by people with agendas.<br />
Reading my signature constitutes admission that I am correct.  (Too late)</p>

I'm probably gonna get hated for saying this, but for a real life example, I've read online how incredibly racist and bigoted the gay community is, despite being an 'oppressed' group themselves. Blacks, hispanics and asians are usually avoided by the majority of gays, and if not, they are more than likely just fetishized. Seems kinda hypocritical, but apparently this is the case. Honestly I dont see how this would be any different in the Marvel universe with Inhumans and Mutants.<br />

<p dir="auto">If the human race ever actually encounters non-human intelligent life forms somwhwere in universe, it will be a bad day, for them. Because we will try to destroy them out of fear, that is if we actually recognize them as a sentient life form, its possible that if they don't look humanoid will think they're just animals.</p>

<p dir="auto">But I just don't buy that if you find out your best friend can suddenly move super fast, you will be terrified of him and not understand him and abandon him.<br />
And how many homosexual or transgender people have lost friends or been disowned by their families for their sexual orientation or gender identity? How many interracial couples had to deal with social and familial disapproval?<br />
Human beings are, at their hear, triablistic monkeys in shoes. What which is different, that which threatens or bucks the order we've arranged for ourselves, we find deeply unsettling. Inhumans, people who ate some fish oil pills and woke up the next day able to stand with the likes of Captain America and Iron Man, would be deeply unsettling.<br />

<p dir="auto">People find their 'true' friends in times like these. Some people wouldn't step away from you. But some people would, because saying I'm your friend and really being your friend under difficult situations, are two different things. If they're really your friend, they'll stands beside you.<br />
But, also realize, that people are influenced by media very easily. All it takes is showing violence and harm caused repeatedly by enhanced till it seems like it's happening all the time, and it can be harder to stand by that friend, especially when you have other friends and family putting the pressure of ostracization on you.<br />
Plus, you will have enhanced that want too use their abilities for their own good, and not to help people. Stuff like this creates bad feelings.<br />
Then you have politicians whispering what these people are going to try to do, mainly take over your world. It doesn't take much to incite fear or dislike into the populace.<br />
Think about how Hitler was able to turn the Germans against the Jews, where Germans actually felt like they were better than Jews. It's happened in other times of history, and it was with me normal people than enhanced individuals.<br />
It's easy to say, I'd stand by you, and you might, but not everyone will.</p>

<p dir="auto">They destroy what they don't understand.<br />
And yes, obviously if it's a super dangerous power, like the Hulk, they will be afraid regardless.<br />
But I just don't buy that if you find out your best friend can suddenly move super fast, you will be terrified of him and not understand him and abandon him. Hussein Bolt has friends left, right?<br />

<p dir="auto">Humans have shown time and time again, they destroy what they fear.<br />
And, a group of people who are fantastically enhanced, compared to the average individual, is something be feared by most human standards.<br />
I agree, they'd do better to make allies out of the Inhumans instead of fearing them and making them enemies. But this human destruction of things feared has been shown through history.</p>

<p dir="auto">I disagree.  The issue isn't that the Inhumans "just so happen to have powers".  Captain America just so happens to have powers.   Hulk just so happens to have powers.  Luke Cage just so happens to have powers.  Those were things given to them by science, or outside sources.<br />
The Inhumans were born different.  Like the mutants, their powers alone aren't what make them threatening.  It's the fact that they're born<br />
not human<br />
.  And as more of them appear, the more it seems they may<br />
supplant humans<br />
.  They are feared not because of what they can do but because of what they mean.  They are The Other, and so long as there's a chance that The Other can overtake the majority, they will be feared by the weak minded.<br />
A black inhuman/mutant is no longer a black man, because he is no longer a man.  He's the outsider, just like Elena is to her people.<br />

<p dir="auto">Don't forget that the anti inhuman sentiment is being ginned up. We in the RW have never faced anything as big as an alien subspecies with immense powers,not in living memory anyway. That's far more frightening than ethnic or cultural differences. The Others could be anybody and it's not so unusual that similarly disenfranchiesd people would seek each other out to band together for their mutual survival. much as the inhumans of afterlife had been doing for centuries. I predict it will be revealed that Quinn has a hand in this. He's got the background in various tech industry ventures. But he's probably just a stooge,again. Possibly for a ressurected Daniel Whitehall. Who may have developed  a hatred for inhumans,blaming them for his death perhaps.</p>
