Why? Cause he killed a terrorist that had just murdered his best friend, an American soldier?
Remember teh bit where the Flag smashers set fire to the van full of hostages and John Walker grabbed it so that it would not fall to their deaths, and the flag smasher used that distraction to attack him and beat him while he was holding the burning van full of innocent civilians?
Yeah, Walker might have issues from the serum now, but he's still a good guy.
He killed a surrendering man while having the mantle of someone who is supposed to stand for justice. Captain America isn't a judge, jury, and executioner. Also it wasn't the Flag Smashers as a whole who were terrorists, mostly just Karly that they all followed for some reason even though they clearly disagreed with her methods which is another issue I had with the show.
Again, in the end he was too buddy buddy with Falcon and Bucky despite all of the animosity they had with each other up until that point. His development happened way too quick. It may have been a result of shooting during covid, but it could've been written better. Either have him in a worse place in the end make the season longer so that development is more natural.
The flag smashers were definitely a terrorist group, as a whole. The guy that was "killed" was part of the murder plot to kill Cap. America and that did kill Battle Star just minutes before.

What is this nonsense? You're bothered Walker wasn't punished enough, but outright excusing a terrorist? He was a part of group planning on killing Walker.
shareAnd did kill Battle Star.

Seriously, I can;t with that guy or this show. The morality and logic - or lack of it - in this show is infuriating. Bucky and Sam - who break one terrorist out of prison - are so focused on Walker that they ignore and then eventually EXCUSE the other terrorist. It's fucking unreal someone wrote this for a show supposedly about heroes.
Hollywood gets so distracted by their lefty politics that they end up, writing themselves into absurd corners.
The Pitch Meeting guy's take on this was hilarious and on point. At one point the Flagsmashers set fire to a van full of hostages, Walker is holding it so it won't fall over a wall to their fiery deaths, and the flagsmashers use his distraction as an advantage and attack him.
And STILL after that, the writers were still pretending they were not terrorists and had a valid message.
Do they (set fire to a van)? I only watched that shit show once. I just watched the clip where she and her crew try to stop him from saving innocent people: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k2THmXZMoQ8. Remember that scene? Sam episode as "You have to stop calling them terrorists."
shareMmm, you might be right, I might have confused that with another scene. I only watched it once, too.
Yeah, They made Sam a freaking moron.
And WHY? it's like they are TRYING to drive away their fans.
How exactly am I excusing a terrorist?
shareYou literally said:
"Also it wasn't the Flag Smashers as a whole who were terrorists"
And they all are terrorists. Clearly.
shareBut they didn't. Admittedly those that clearly didn't agree with Karly's methods (which you see a couple of them when she first blows up that building with the people inside) should've left the group, but they didn't all commit terrorist acts like she did.
I'm also not okay with Sam being preachy at the end saying Karly wasn't a terrorist, because she fits the exact definition. The end was handled sloppy.
You're an idiot. None of them just stood around. They ran with a terrorist, making them TERRORISTS. They committed violent crimes in the names of their beliefs. That is TERRORISM.
These are all acts of TERRORISM:
