you know what they should have done with scarlet witch and quicksilver in mcu instead of going ‘well they can’t be mutants so lets not do any of their heritage’ (other than: literally anything)

considering being a mutant serves narritively as a alegory for other experiences, while these characters have similar experiences already (roma-jewish) the existing characters they are alledged trying to bring to screen have this plus being a mutant. They can’t do that, fine. But making them romani-jewish and also queer, say, would give an alternitive intersectional identity that’d work fairly well
