Here's the issue though, we can't agree that Healthcare is for everyone. It that disability accommodation is reasonable. That mental health should be destigmatized. To treat animals and children and the elderly and homeless or those escaping abuse with care. That the LBGTQIA+ community should have the rights as everyone else.

If we can't agree that our most vulnerable populations should be cared for and treated with respect and dignity, why would we think that they're going to do so about a population that is *not* vulnerable in their minds?

Mutants, like any minority group, should have equal rights, protections, access to accommodation and Healthcare and everything else. But we're struggling with what should be basics. That doesn't mean you stop working towards your goals, every step you take makes it one less step for those that come after you, but this is a marathon not a sprint. We have a long way to go before mutants can take what we should already have simply by being born.
