Magnetos belief of superiority isn't any better than the humans who are anti mutant because the false belief is that all of the opposite group are inherently bad.

I know that. But it is still hard to buy as a great parallel when mutants do possess otherworldly powers that are a grave danger. And it never fit well in the general Marvel universe. The Avengers are praised and admired yet mutants are reviled.
It is certainly no Edmund Spenser allegory.
