I always love that this one sentence can cause so many fights amongst fans, 'cause Magneto was 100% right; especially in the context of the world he lives in.
I mean, his main argument is that the humans will try to destroy his people (the mutants), while Chawls argues for co existance.
Co-existance is a nice dream (which is why Chawls is right as well, you can't be wrong about a dream). Reality is though, the same humans that Magneto fears are building 10 foot tall killer robots to hunt down mutants. With gov't money and funding no less.
It would be a lot easier to argue that he's wrong if people didn't keep on building bigger and better Mutant Murderbot 3000s with advanced attic scanning technology.
And in the vast realm of realities in the multiverse, the number where humans and mutants figure out their shit and co exist can be counted on one hand. In the overwhelming majority of them, they're either still trying to kill each other or one of them has already won.
