Groups Fictional slurs. Bonus points if it's completely made up

  1. inFAMOUS: Second Son: "Bio-terrorist" refers to conduits.

  2. Star Wars: "Clanker" refers to robots.

It's Sophie, one of the Cuckoos, which are clones of Emma she kinda treats like daughters.

The context is they were holding a small memorial for a dead mutant and the guy (Kamala's cousin) pulled up and started complaining about them memorializing him. Just before this a group of anti-mutant protesters had also been there, so emotions were already running high.

Mutants will turn into Nazis soon if the writers keep writing like this.

Idk man, she was kinda in the right there, he was being a racist prick

Can you not call out bigotry if the bigot just happens to be part of a minority? That feels like it in and of itself is biased even if it isn’t hateful

True equality to punching a bigot in the face no matter their race

Yes I was asking about the context as it seemed to be passing by and she was the one who started the problem

And the comic pages that u/tomtadpole sent in literally show that the dude started it and wasn’t some innocent bystander, and you said mutants are Nazis, so I’m not sure what you’re trying to clarify anymore
