I deadass think steve rogers ending was character assassination and conservative rhetoric (send the progressive man back to the decade epitomes with traditional values for a white picket fence life) but it was also just cruel to steve and bucky. โoh ur just mad ur ship didnโt go canonโ no im mad the friendship that was the most important thing in both of their lives was tossed aside and the audience was gaslit into believing it didnโt matter despite three films proving otherwise. steve dropped the shield twice for bucky and would have died rather than live in a world where bucky didnโt remember him. bucky broke thru 70 years of brainwashing at the sound of steveโs voice. their catchphrase was essentially โtil death do we partโ. the fuck
