What impresses me most about this show is the huge internal friction between humans and mutants. Like a butterfly in hell, fluttering the wings of suffering, a hurricane of struggle will blow up in the world. What is "internal friction"? Humans and mutants are roughly divided into conservative and radical factions. The part that supports the rights of mutants happens to meet the mutants who hate humans, and the mild mutants are repeatedly bullied by humans who are hostile to mutants. Humans and mutants who were originally peaceful and friendly were angry and blackened after being harmed for no reason. Both parties thought that the other party wanted to put themselves to death and fought hard, so there was really an endless hatred. Although the source of this hatred may just be a trivial misunderstanding. The mutant underground organization is always on the run, carefully living in abandoned buildings in the suburbs, but it is still powerless to avoid the intensification of conflicts between humans and mutants. The gloomy and hopeless life made some people choose to rebuild the Hellfire Club in an attempt to restore the glory of the former mutants. From the moment Polaris used his supernatural power to tear Roderick Campbell's plane apart, or the earlier eclipse and Thunderbird's failed kidnapping, the rift in the relationship between the two races could never be repaired. The seeds of doubt are deeply rooted in people's hearts, and the ancient, simple and heart-wrenching specter of "not my race must be different" has been resurrected, attracting a large number of believers while the so-called universal values are weakening. In fact, most mutants and people just want to live well. Mutants want to not be unfoundedly suspected and hunted down, and humans want to live without fear of mutants' special abilities. It's just that it is difficult to achieve two wishes at the same time, and the mutant powers will always happen out of control, and the fear caused by differences cannot be eliminated. Fear is always there, suspicion and hatred are firmly rooted. Equality and equal rights that are not based on respect for differences will only be a momentary splendor of fireworks, and by the way will bury more evil and bane. Reed Strucker, the prosecutor who prosecuted the half-life mutants, has had mutant children Lauren and Andrew, which quickly reversed his attitude toward mutants. It's an unfortunate and ironic story, but there are only individuals who betray their interests, and no classes who betray their interests. When observing the tragedy of an individual from a microscopic perspective in the context of the grand space and time, this sadness will be less obvious before the powerlessness of the times, which is difficult for small creatures trapped in time to intuitively feel. Thinking of it this way, Agent Turner's sense of tragedy is not so strong. The development of the mutants and human beings from suspicion to competition in the talent is very interesting to me. It would be more perfect if the mutants could not forget to bring their brains in the struggle.
