Am I the only who had a fucking cringe with the whole Russia thing? Americans Against Russia? The plot to start a war with the US? That was so weird and awkward and uncomfortable.

I truly hope they'll rapidly drop that shit because I won't watch a show about a fictive war that has, in fact, actually started in the real world. Being a cold war or not.

Also, the episode made me kinda fell bad for every too-young-to-retire character of the Endgame era. Because there will be more.

This must've been written before the war started IRL.

It's quite unfortunate for Marvel since they re-wrote The Falcon and the Winter Soldier already; the plot originally was supposed to have a virus meant to eradicate half the population, hence the references to a vaccine, which was jankily re-written for it to be supersoldier serum once the pandemic happened.

So, Marvel keeps writing fictitious plots that just happen to keep ending up true 😬

I guess the whole Russians are racist AF thing has been added to the plot to make the whole thing less stand with Russia, but that made the plot even creepier.

I stand with Ukraine and I'm mad at Russians for not removing Putin, but I'm pretty sure they are not as racist as the show represented them. In the soviet era there were many exchanges between the USSR and other Asian and African Communist countries, as they were very inclusive.

Anyway, I hope Ukraine will end that war rapidly enough so that we can put Putin in jail for war crimes and move on. As a European I really don't like having a Putin AND a Trump in the same timeline. We need to get rid of them.

I didn't interpret the show's message as stand with Russia, so much as stand against manipulation of world affairs by hostile aliens. Personally I don't think it's hypocritical to condemn Russia and at the same time not want Russia to be used as a pawn by alien invaders.
