>The marvel public hated all the heroes but somehow they hated mutants specifically more?
They didn't though. That was later writers deciding to double down on the mutant hatred. Heck, by issue 2 they were minor celebrities.The X-men oscillate a lot when it comes to the hatred bit, but they used to have a pretty good reputation even into the 90's with the Legacy Virus and Heroes Reborn scandals going on. And then shit dropped right off a cliff in the 2000's.
Though to be fair, it was kind of a long time coming, since unlike most other superheroes the X-men hid their presence from the world and refused to explain anything about themselves. And if you think I'm being unfair to them, just consider how much shit Spider-Man has gotten his entire career for the same level of obfuscation and refusal to explain himself when shit looks bad despite his overall friendliness.
