      He needs to check his white privilege. He has the privilege to grow up poor in depression era NYC. The privilege to have to flight in the most horrific conflict man has ever seen. The privilege to get mind fucked and used as a living weapon over and over. The privilege to get turned into dust while trying to save half of the universe and the privilege to be a broken husk of a man. Haunted by actions that he didn't choose.

      ​@@CowboyRobot2000i personally feel it's not really about the powers though, otherwise they wouldn't have given the formula to some shrimpy kid. the point of being Captain America is to fight for a noble cause and be the living embodiment of America. essentially be a goody two shoes as I feel Tony would've called him. with that being said Sam Wilson fits that description as even with all of Karli's evil he still saw good in him. he still saw what she was trying to do and only went after her because of HOW she tried doing it. meanwhile while Bucky does have the abilities, he dosen't have the same attributes as Steve. while Steve would've saw the good in her and tried to talk her down, Bucky throughout the show wanted to kill her. and Bucky sees himself as a monster after everything he remembers doing as The Winter Solider so I don't even think he wants the title and that's the point. Steve saw something good in Sam and knows what life was like for Sam as a kid so he gave the shield to him because he believed/knew that Sam would use the shield to represent freedom and liberty. that's the whole reason why Walker was just not worthy of the shield and suit because he gave into anger and brutally killed someone in public. Terrorist or not can you honestly tell me that you can imagine Steve bashing his shield into a guy's chest like he's trying to be in Mortal Kombat? the shield is more than just a flashy weapon that can be used to kill bad guys it's a damn symbol that means something. that's what made Steve Rogers/Captain America special:he always tried to do the right thing against all other odds, even when the government was against him he tried to do what was right. and that's what Sam tries to do. not understanding that is misrepresenting the ENTIRE point of Captain America and why he's special.

      The new serum is more potent than what Bucky got, the scientist specifically says he made it so it wasn't obvious (big muscles). Then you have the fact that Bucky isn't the Winter Soldier, he's a man with morals that probably didn't want to fight a little girl. Also the WS was only brought out of cryo to do missions, so he wasn't literally fighting for 70+ years.

Just telling someone to do better won't create any waves either on the show nor in reality. If he and his community need something from the people governing them, he should actually spell it out. Otherwise, they're mere complaints that will fall on deaf ears. It needs to be more specific. He had the opportunity to speak directly with the senator with cameras on him, and that's all he had to say? Complain and be vague? He only made it sound like the issue isn't important enough for those in charge to actually listen or care. The senator isn't on his shoes to know, and Falcon didn't even bother saying that they should set up a meeting right then and there in front of everyone to talk about it later. He's a freaking Avenger.

    The subtle and intricate writing in this show is absolutley, mindblowingly brilliant.
    It is an honest to god masterclass in cinema and screenwriting.
    This may very well be the only remarkable thing that has spawned and will ever spawn in the millenia and quite possibly the next.
    Any buffoon with an IQ lower than 400 will have had these complex, high-conscious loquacities flown way over their heads.
    Men, women, children and non-binaries will be studying these scenes, crying in the lecture halls as this plays in the history museums in the next Aeon for how absolutely unblemished this series is.
    As I am scribing this on my brick of glass and light, 80% of artists have already commited ritual seppuku as they know for a fact that they could never hold up to a piece of art as intellectually sophisticated and well crafted as what is Falcon and the Winter Soldier.
    The ones who scoff envy it behind closed doors sobbing under cloaks of jealousy, and the ones that love it give their life and their children's children's lives.
    A show this profound in its messages creates war,
    It creates division,
    It mobilizes hearts,
    It disentangles factions,
    It forces sides.
    Sides a boy must pick in order to truly become a full-fledged man.
    It is the fine line that separates good and evil, black and white, red and blue for without these lavish ideologies we use to uphold modern civilization, we would be but animals, beasts that pick fruit and mate meaninglessly until the eventual death of our local Sol.
    This show would evidently transcend space and time itself. Language and culture would be made meaningless, equally intelligible by all who gazes upon it's nearholy craftsmenship.
    Any type Omega civilization and beyond that stumbles across this cinematic Magnum Opus in their interdimensional excursions would and could only imagine the hyperintellegent, far superior lifeform that came before them and after the first ten minutes, they would all see themselves as mere monkeys bashing sticks and mud together while the humans that once were were discovering breakthroughs every single second.
    The Falcon and the Winter Soldier not only surpasses expectations, but builds a brand new, unreachable, unobtainable standard for future mediums that will never be reached again, let alone come close to. It is an ode to filmmaking that eventually, through hard work and dedication, made itself into perfection.
    And I'm not talking about that bullshit "perfection" everyone likes to throw around.
    I MEAN. Literal. Perfection.
    If any scene were to have been cut by 0.00001 seconds or had Bucky Barnes been standing 0.02 micrometers too far left, it would've absolutely crumbled into a steaming pile of unwatchable dogshit.
    But unfortunately with a film this painfully brilliant, this will never be said for any show again until the universe destroys its last star.
    If you didn't like Falcon and the Winter Soldier, you simply aren't capable of a higher form of thinking.
    Every fight scene literally gives you the stacked orgasm of a thousand men and women.
    It is the single most beautiful thing one can experience in multiple lifetimes, to gaze upon such a series is to realign your inner chakras and have the soul be at peace with the universe.
    The restraint of time no longer becomes an unreachable construct as your metaphysical state merges into a higher form of consciousness.
    Its mere existence proves long unsolved theories, resonates and harmonizes with the external omniverses, keeping their structural integrities in check and ultimately preventing reality from collapsing.
    In summation, Falcon and the Winter Soldier can't be rated. A simple [x]/10 or [x] number of stars cannot truly define it's tremendous impact on the film industry and medium as a whole. You might as well burn every other film as this would suffice for generations to come.
    Absolutely no form of storytelling can or will ever compare to the cinematic genius of that which is Falcon and the Winter Soldier.
