This was in response to a clip from the old X-men show of a bunch of anti-mutant brownshirts in armbands getting mad that a filthy mutant was touching a human woman.

I think it's safe to say that person was not arguing in good faith.

Or that they missed the obvious allusions as a child and haven't gone back and rewatched it with an adult's knowledge of context.

I'm usually fine giving the benefit of the doubt, but this comment was in direct response to a scene from the show that was absolutely blatant, so they had to wilfully ignore that.

Fair. There's misremembering something from your childhood and then there's ignoring evidence that's right in front of you.
