'SPIDER-MAN BRAND NEW DAY' might secretly be proving that Captain America was right in Civil War. The movie’s whole conflict around Spider-Man using surveillance to track down Scorpion is basically Peter learning the exact lesson Steve Rogers was trying to teach the Avengers. Peter was originally Team Iron Man because he was young and trusted the people in charge. But in Brand New Day, he sees firsthand how dangerous it can be when governments and institutions are given too much power. And that’s what makes the movie’s government angle so interesting. The DODC, William Metzger, and the surveillance storyline all reinforce the idea that good intentions don’t automatically make unchecked authority okay. It also connects perfectly to the MCU’s history: Kingpin abused political power. Ross repeatedly changed his agenda. Valentina operated from the shadows. And now the MCU is heading toward an anti-mutant movement that could once again put government agendas above individual rights. Steve said it back in Civil War: “The safest hands are still our own.” And after everything Peter has experienced, Brand New Day might finally be turning Spider-Man into a Team Cap guy.

I always find it funny how it’s “The X-Men can wash the Avengers” but then all I see is “The Avengers never help the x men when they be going through hell!” Y’all tough right? You got it 😅

@YawoElvn Batman was always a POS. Rich vigilante that refuses to kill psychotic villains that murder children, women, and others in horrific ways to feed his own ego of catching them and believing they can be rehabilitated
