On their last day of school, my kids quicky came up to me, and demanded to know what’s going on. Why is everyone saying Cap is a bad guy?
“Ms? What’s going on?”

I had to explain to crying and angry 5th graders about why/how Cap is Hydra.

And one of my girls, Abby, who was wearing a Captain America tee-shirt, clutching her shield backpack and had sat with me everyday after homework time to listen to me tell them comic storylines, goes “He can’t be Hydra, Ms. He can’t be. His my hero. He can’t be. What about Bucky? Why would he be someone who hurt Bucky?”
And I’m honestly so fucking angry about this.

These kids don’t care about sales, or understand about the money. All they know is the man I told them about. The hero that I would them tell stories about, everyday if they behaved.

“Come kids, let’s sit outside and I’ll tell you about the first time Cap ever met Tony. Or about the time he really wasn’t him, but a Skrull! But he beat them in the end. Or about Sam becoming Captain America! He did! What do you want to hear about today?

Come on guys, Cap would want you to do your homework first!

If Steve Rogers, all of 45 pounds, could stand up to bullies, so can you. Don’t let anyone tell you you can’t, because I know Cap thinks you can!”

We printed out posters, the Cap Wants You ones, to support voting and their anti bullying campaign.

These kids don’t know about the politics behind this. They don’t care.
All they know is Captain America is everything they thought he fought against.

All they know is Captain America is the bad guy.

“But he can’t be, he’s my hero..”

@captbbarnes -_- ok in the fuckin feels

Ugh seriously. I’m so glad my niece isn’t old enough to understand this.

And now that Marvel editor Brooboovert (IDGAF how you actually spell it) is comparing it to Bucky coming back from the dead in WS, and saying the people most upset are the ones who only watch the movies and don’t read the comics. Media is now shifting this to make it seem like it’s just butthurt tumblr fans that are causing the worst uproar.

To throw salt on the wound, Stan Lee just weighed in by calling it “clever”. He also indicated that they’ll probably make a movie about it. (Source: CBR)
