I’ve watched humans destroy each other when I could stop it all in a heartbeat. Do you know what that does to someone after centuries? Could our mission have been a mistake? Are we really helping these people build a better world? We’re just like the soldiers down there: pawns to their leaders, blinded by loyalty.

in episode 2, we see Lemar in trouble and calling for John 

who puts himself in a vulnerable position in the middle of the fight to save Lemar,

thereby opening himself up to attack from Karli

and is nearly knocked off the edge of the truck, which could have killed him

and then in episode 4, when Lemar joins the fight after breaking free of his restraints, he sees that Karli is about to stab John 

and willfully charges into the path of danger

and makes a very clear and willing decision to tackle Karli to save his friend

thus directing Karli’s rage towards himself in that moment, which ended with Karli actually killing him

and how much that looks like this meme

like seriously this man is just nervous and uncomfortable as hell with the publicity and public persona

I still see posts where John is attributed a variety of sins, come up with all sorts of nonsense (racist, sexist, homophobic 🤦🏻‍♀️where did they see all this) and other fantasies.

And who he really is, just the facts.

he's a loving husband💜

he's a loyal friend

I don’t blame Bucky and Sam for being prickly with him, even if he may not have deserved the full force of it. All in all, Walker struck me as a good man that ended up making an equally  emotional (and wrong) choice after his best friend was murdered. Saying that, just being a decent human being doesn’t make you a candidate for the super soldier serum. WWII was filled with good men who were physically qualified for the serum, but Erskine was looking for a very, very specific individual. That was Steve, and that was a high bar. Not reaching that high bar doesn’t automatically make you a racist, a sexist, a homophobe, or [insert negative attribute here]. It makes you human. 

where is the villain ?
