fear is different

The "X-Men" series should not be considered a superhero movie, at least not a superhero movie in the ordinary sense. Those superheroes we are familiar with are individual and cannot be copied. Superman is an alien visitor, and Spiderman is a mutant spider Superpowers are generated by the bite. Batman and Iron Man are ordinary people, relying on awesome equipment. They cannot be mass-produced and cannot emerge in large numbers, so although the state is unstable, it will not affect the survival of human beings. Therefore , people love them because they're not us and they don't threaten us.

But mutants are different. They have supernatural powers, they're so powerful, they can look like anyone, they can change the direction of missiles, they can even Change our thinking. What's more scary is that there are so many of them, we don't know how many of them are around, and they are more advanced than us, even if they help us now, they will threaten our existence sooner or later. So, we To exclude them, to destroy them.

It is part of human nature to fear being different, to fear the unknown. Different people and things are scary, if you can't make them the same as us, then destroy them. It's as big as the Cold War, Racial discrimination, the war against mutants, the exclusion of homosexuals, and

the unease of those who do not conform to the rules. Prove that mutants are not a threat to them. Magneto Erik does not believe in human nature, and advocates that mutants must confront humans violently. One of them is an optimist and the other is a pessimist. To apply the concept in "Three-Body Problem", then One is the Rescue faction, the other is the Adventist faction. I personally stand on the side of Magneto, and in the world of "Three-Body Problem", I will also be an Adventist faction. The plot development of the film confirms Magneto's prediction that human beings seek mutants Help is just trying to fight poison with poison, and once the danger is lifted, immediately turn the muzzle at the mutants who once helped him. Humans are full of distrust and estrangement from each other, not to mention aliens like mutants?

Mystique Raven in the film from trying to integrate into human society, to finally joining the camp against humans, emotionally from Professor X to the arms of Magneto. Her transformation sets the tone for the film. The sentence she said when she strengthened her belief can be regarded as the main theme of the film: it is not that people who are different should change themselves to adapt to society, but that society should be tolerant enough to accept people who are different.

Quite right, very chicken soup, but very unlikely.
