Full-Circle Revolution, Jerkass Has a Point, Not So Different, or The Horseshoe Effect could be what you're looking for.

Ah, it was Rooting for the Empire. Apparently, search would not turn up results of Genoshan if I searched for Genosha.
So, there was this one trope page I remember coming across which had a comment about how, during a X-Men arc, the X-Men had an encounter with an inhabitant of Genosha who defended their country's enslaving of mutants as necessary to protect the human population from being destroyed by the mutants - and, sure enough, when the mutants were free, the Genoshan humans were massacred. This trope entry expressed some sympathetic for the Genoshan viewpoint, although I edited it to point out that this was a case of Self-Fulfilling Prophecy (don't think I used that trope, though). I can't remember what trope that was, though. Any suggestions? Maybe Beware the Superman, Unintentionally Sympathetic, or something like that?
