I don't care whether he's a statist or not, my impression of him is he's more into protecting the constitution and concept of freedom than the people those rules were meant to protect. Would he care if the entire white American population are replaced by Africans and Mexicans but it was done constitutionally and they all have American citizenship? When Biden legalizes transition for children, would he follow orders to defend those clinics? Obviously you know the character better, what kind of government policy would drive him to quit his government job and go rogue and actually fight against it? He has to have a red line somewhere right?
Literally the entire arc of the Civil War storyline is him refusing to acquiesce to a government program to mass register and regulate all super-heroes.
Conveniently happened during the bush era, I doubt the writers would create such "fighting for freedom against the government" arc if it was Obama that signed the patriot act. He was fighting the other meta humans that tried to arrest him right? or did he directly attack the institutions and politicians themselves? So government intrusion into super heroes' lives is his bottom line, but everything upto that was acceptable right? This doesn't go against my original statement that he'll support degeneracy if the government can spin it in name of freedom. The civil war arc was obviously presented as him fighting for freedom, which I never said he's against.
You argued he was a statist, then reversed course, now you're back to arguing he's a status because you imagined a scenario in your head in which he was.
I'm going to leave, you don't even know anything about what we are talking about, you just want to be mad at something.
Yeah dude, the entire civil war arc was a scenerio made up by writers in their minds, it's a fictional event. If we're going by fictional events as judgement of his character, captain America sure hasn't demonstrated he's against degeneracy in the comics, he's full on support of lgbt diversity recently. Whatever, I said I don't care about if he's a statist or not, you're the one who insisted that was the point. I said he supports state sponsored degeneracy if that makes him a statist so be it. Captain America would follow pedo Joe's orders to defend underage trannie if he's a real person.
