matt needs to appreciate foggy

Remember that time Steve roundhouse kicked a god in the head because he reminded him of Hitler? Good times.

stares directly @ the people in charge of the new captain america comic

going through screenshots of decade old tumblr posts on pinterest because it's easier there and i had COMPLETELY FORGOTTEN that it was a known joke/open secret/whatever even within the marvel cast that steve was a bit fruity. a late night talkshow host called it gay and Sebastian said it was a little brokeback mountain. red carpet interview with Chris and Scarlett had Samuel L interrupting them saying he was the "first lgbt captain america." like i know it's jokes but they knew. Chris said all the Steve+Bucky scenes in CW were cut short, and meeting up in wakanda couldn't have been the first time they saw each other since because otherwise they would've hugged for 30 minutes. they knew. they KNEW. and i don't know if it was the russos or Disney or both but they purposely took that from us. no they probably would've never been able to canonize anything without pissing off a very large percentage of their audience (and lose money not being able to show it in several countries) but they overcorrected WAY too much, so much so that it sullied people's opinions of Steve forever. his character was assassinated because of homophobia. and I'll literally never be over it.
