MODERATORS
You could have also mentioned that Stan Lee has explicitly stated that the X-Men are a civil rights allegory.
But yeah I have no idea how someone could consume the X-Men and not see the obvious.
ETA: FFS in First Class Magneto is explicitly shown to be a Holocaust survivor, and in the climax of the movie Charles drops a "they're just following orders" about the dudes firing missles at them and Magneto says "I've been at the mercy of men just following orders. Never again". How could you POSSIBLY be more explicit.
And the comics don't shy away from it either.
