To me, my X-rule!

I just don't get people who say X-Men wasn't "woke" until recently. It never even tried very hard to hide the metaphors...
Or that they missed the obvious allusions as a child and haven't gone back and rewatched it with an adult's knowledge of context.
"with an adult's knowledge of context"
You think thoese people have that? This is the issue they lack this. Most can't even understand the nuances in the language they freaking speak all day long.
I'm usually fine giving the benefit of the doubt, but this comment was in direct response to a scene from the show that was absolutely blatant, so they had to wilfully ignore that.
Fair. There's misremembering something from your childhood and then there's ignoring evidence that's right in front of you.
