Mutants and Canadians

Text on the meme

DIDN'T THEY COME UP WITH A CURE FOR YOUR KIND? YOU GOT A PROBLEM WITH MUTANTS? I MEANT CANADIANS.

What it means

Three costumed mutants walk across a city street while one asks whether a cure has been developed for their kind. The speaker clarifies that he meant Canadians, turning a discussion about mutant prejudice into a joke about Canadians being treated as an odd group. It is used as an absurd reaction to an awkward misunderstanding or a stereotypical comment.
