Not quite. Professor X believes that humans will eventually overcome their inherit racism and would be able to live with mutants in peace. He also believes any act of violence from the mutants will push this ideal future further and further (he also does not agree on hurting humans indiscriminately because not all humans are rabid racists)
Whether Professor X is enlightened or just naive, well that's another story
This is where your rebuttal faltered. Not everyone out there is a fascist
Magneto wanted to push, hurt, kill everyone regardless of their stance towards mutants
Ironically, thinking everyone "else" deserves punishment is one of the hallmarks of fascists
Hurting humans indiscriminately would translate to hurting white people indiscriminately, not fascists. That's the flaw in your reasoning.
