The first X-Men movie literally starts with a scene of Magneto being separated from his parents at Dachau, which in hindsight makes his willingness to violently resist the fascist rumblings of the US government in that film completely justified and turns the X-men into the fucking Freikorps.

Professor X killed Rosa.

it's a pretty bad metaphor as Jews don't have dangerous magic powers. it makes the counterpoint antisemites more reasonable in the metaphor as "I feel violated when I'm mind controlled" is a reasonable concern but antisemites have no such reasonable worries

Yeah if there was a group of people who could kill you with impunity and thought themselves above the common people being afraid of them would be rational. Oh wait that's called cops

Magneto is the hero of the story as interpreted by the people whose power, wealth, and social position requires him to be the villain.

Same thing with Killmonger, same thing with dozens of other villains.
