Like I said, it might be my bias, but CIA characters often read very similarly to Army characters for me, and coming from that lens, it seemed like the audience was supposed to get the "this is appalling" vibe from the Wakandans and not from Ross/Freeman. Ross def seemed like the officer who tookover a shit-sandwich and was like "I'm familiar with the way to make this kind of shit-sandwich." It just seemed very matter of fact to me, and not like he was making a judgment call. And no where in the narrative did anyone actually side-eye or confront Ross for it (the colonizer comment is before this reveal, iirc, and seemed to be more general). We don't get any kind of "meddling American" throwaway line (a jab at the war on terror or some related propoganda about us being world police would've worked pretty well here and not taken long).

This just seems like an echo of the kind of tabula rasa we aim for when meeting important people we still want to talk to us, but I have a lot of really complicated feelings about my service, so it's entirely possible I read the room wrong. *shrug*
