Plus if you lived in a universe where aliens were invading New York, inter dimensional portals were opening up in Europe with gods flying through them fighting, cities were floating sub atmosphere and dropping to the ground, giant alien masses were popping up behind Dairy Queen’s and eating small towns, and giant ants were walking around. Some dude poping claws or blasting eye beams wouldn’t make the evening news...

Exactly, look back to what Vision stated in Civil War, comparing the amount of world events in contrast to how many “enhanced “ beings that are showing up. Mutants could easily be overlooked as another new enhanced human incident. Remember in their world it’s still a new discovery, meaning that in our real life continuity it’s been like 10-11 years of MCU since the first IM, Thor, Capt America movies, but in the MCU it’s all taken place in a matter of what?,..3-4 years tops ( not counting CA, TFA ). Even include the Netflix MU in the MCU and they still refer to the alien invasion from the avengers as the incident in NY and that they are still rebuilding, recovering from it.
