The biggest things were The Mutant Registration Program, The Sentinels (described in the show as "giant robot policemen") and an anti-mutant hate group called The Friends of Humanity.

Really sets up how to identify the language and iconography fascists use.
Three members of the fictional hate group The Friends of Humanity from X-men the animated series. They each wear a white T-shirt with their logo, an angular red and blue eagle with outstretched wings with the initials F.O.H. across its body and wings in white text

With discernment. Keep the doors open, but also keep the murder hole ready.

Be open to people. But when you start seeing bad familiar patterns and feeling bad familiar ways trust yourself

Ok, so his names Tom. He's a mysterious recluse who sings weird songs and takes every opportunity to talk about how great his wife is.
Also some people think he might secretly be some kind of powerful eldritch creature.

Saint Brendan said "Trans Rights"

From The Enchanted Bay: edited by Cormac O'Malley, collected by Ernie O'Malley
"one night the mother of the young girl had a dream that if she brought her child to St. Brendan's Well in Kilmeena on Food Friday before the sun would rise and put the child down in to the well three times, the child would come up the third time as a boy."

I need a name for this character. They're definitely a prophet, possibly an angel or folk saint.
I've come up with a use for them and I've started plotting.

Any suggestions?
Hard to describe. Me in a long black coat with silver/white embroidery along the cuffs and edges. Under the coat I'm wearing black trousers and a floral patterned red and greened waistcoat secured with three brass buckles. I am not wearing a shirt and much of my chest and stomach are visible. I'm wearing a black rose flower crown with eyeballs and a red cloth tied over my eyes Same as the first, slightly different pose Same as the first two, but my mouth is open as if in panic, my head swung back and my arms out like I'm being raised off the ground by some invisible force Same again but now I've gone full blurry Bigfoot cryptid photo
