I just don't get people who say X-Men wasn't "woke" until recently. It never even tried very hard to hide the metaphors...

I think you misunderstand... God Loves, Man Kills is the title of an X-Men story from the 80s which centers on the X-Men fighting against a church that preaches anti-mutant bigotry.

I stand corrected.

The irony of the title is still true, though.
