Chris Evans said the SAME thing back in 2011 and no one had a problem.
@davidsanchez113
Lol thats exactly what a Canadian would say. “It’s Completely accurate” People aren’t bothered by Mackie saying it means people with honor, dignity and integrity, they’re bothered that he said that Captain AMERICA doesnt represent America the country. The country is one thing and the government is another. You can love your country and hate the government. Captain America does indeed represent America the country and its people with honor, dignity and integrity.
@FranMessina1998
Some people forgot that Steve Rogers went against his own government in "Civil War", and at the end he quits the shield to become Nomad.
@ronnyshama
The whole point of captain america is he's supposed to represent the ideals of america which is often in conflict with actual policies of america
@wesmiller5938
The government is not America. The people are America. He represents the ideals of America and its founding.
@datguy3581
Captain America is supposed to represent moral ideals that we don't always live up to. Steve doesn't really fight for America. He fought against the Nazis because it was the right thing to do. He disobeyed orders from the US military in order to go behind enemy lines to rescue his fellow soldiers. And in Winter Soldier, he establishes that he is not just a mindless state asset. He's a person who is willing to defy the government and even go against what's popular.
@javirot7902
Captain America is a symbol of courage
@KevyWevyOrder
It’s suppose to represent what America should be not what it is, also Steve has gone against the government multiple times including the films
@sainttrai
Captain America was literally an outlaw in Civil War and Infinitiy War lol
@d.c.stranded7134
Daredevil issue 233 (part of the original Born Again storyline btw), Steve Rogers Captain America says "I'm loyal to nothing, General. Except the dream." I think there's an argument that Anthony Mackie could've worded his statements better but I think this is the gist of what he meant.
@signalhd9793
Chris Evans said something similar in a 2011 Interview: Ha, well, to me, I'm not trying to get too lost in the American side of it. This isn't a flag waving movie. It is red, white and blue, but it just so happens that the character was created in America during war time, when there was a common enemy, even though it is Captain America. I've said before in interviews, it feels more like he should just be called Captain Good. [Laughs] You know, he was created at a time when there was this undeniable evil and this guy was kind of created to fight that evil. I think that everyone could agree that Nazis were bad and he, Cap, just so happens to wear the red, white and blue. They both clearly read the comics and if you do, its blatantly obvious that this is how Captain America is🤷♂️
@Luke-lu7xk
It’s literally in the name.. captain AMERICA.. why are people so stupid.. Stan lee literally said in a past interview that he loves captain America for what he stands for.. America!!! Like what?
@karatetermite1562
A Canadian telling me what an American is. Hummmm
@Kekkersboy
Captain America isn't what America is, it's What America could be.
@acgregg759
Why does anybody care what actors think about anything? They aren't known exactly for being intelligent or wise.
@ChefCashflow.
John and his panel are seconds away from saying Captain America represents Canada, Ukraine, and illegal immigrants.
@MikeyMikeHq
This movie is Captain USAid
@theAlphatron
This is one of the most disingenuous takes so far. Wow.
@Queue22
Captain America is someone who holds America the country to better standards. Literally what Civil War was all about
