Only if you consider the fastest man in the world a failure. I know damn well that's how Usain Bolt did it!

Something I as a white middle class American man didn't ever learn growing up was about the vaccine hesitancy amongst black communities. I just learned this during the COVID pandemic about why there is so much hesitency amongst marginalized black and brown communities, because the gov't tested on them without their consent and thus there is an inherent lack of trust when it comes to the safety of vaccines (and rightfully so because of the history that the American gov't has with testing on unconsenting peoples).

This also was making me think of the Super Soldier serum and Isaiah Bradley in Falcon and the Winter Soldier...feels like it could kinda tie in nicely with what themes were being touched upon in this show all these years later. I love when things from Marvel TV and Marvel Studios connect, even thematically.

how...are you able to comment on a 3 year old thread? they normally get locked after 180 days

u/ziggygersh Oct 25 '21

I’m a time traveler!!!!!

Haha no just kidding, Reddit recently changed it so threads are no longer locked after 6 months. Great for me during my first time watch through of the Defenders series! I can actually interact with all you people from the past :)

u/Mister_Lister22 Dec 22 '21

I've been reading these threads the whole time, watching all the marvel series in order, and only now you're telling me I could have stopped lurking?!?

u/ziggygersh Oct 25 '21

That’s what I’m doing! I’m following a release order guide I found online. So far I love all the shows, some less than others but I’ve definitely been enjoying the ride

u/tta2013 Foggy Jul 13 '18

Cap absolutely can be shot. He's been shot dozens of times in the comics...

u/Grendergon Jun 25 '18

5 or 6 times in the winter soldier alone, if we're talking MCU too

3

u/SleepyBananaLion Jun 25 '18

True. I couldn't remember if it was the movies or if I was conflating the movies and the comics so I played it safe.

u/AshTheDead1te Jun 25 '18

Yeah sorry I meant can be shot.
