If I had a nickel for every time Marvel has written a group of refugees into the big bad terrorists, I'd have two nickels. That's not a lot, but it's funny that it happened twice.
Ok yeh the Flag Smashers were more of an anti-nationalist group of displaced people, but they were still a diaspora.
And what about the Clandestines? Another diaspora, albeit exiles, set up as the villains trying to get back home. I'm not saying either group was in the right, or that their actions should be condoned, it's just weird that Marvel have chosen refugees to be the villains in 3 of their TV series so far.
Or am I way off and finding a pattern that doesn't exist?
I liked the Skrull being the good guys in the MCU, unlike the comics, and that they were using their shapeshifting abilities to survive instead of for war. I guess it was too tempting to villainise them for this series, and I get the intrigue/drama that comes with a race of shapeshifters, but it's got me feeling iffy.
Don't forget the Inhumans. Technically they're not part of the MCU but they are written by Marvel.
Oh man, the Inhumans show was so weird. The slave-owning, xenophobic, eugenicist royalty as the good guys? What a waste of good actors. Tbf, I was never a fan of the Inhumans in the comics either (apart from Lockjaw) so didn't have high hopes.
AFAIK, they are part of the MCU unless explicitly stated otherwise. Same with Cloak & Dagger, Shield, Runaways, and the Netflix shows.
