Re: What fandom hills will you die on?

[(Anonymous)]

I agree that Steve has probably killed people. But usually we draw a moral and legal distinction between killing people as a soldier in war, and murdering them privately or assassinating them the way that Bucky did (when he was brainwashed). There's all kinds of moral lines and hedges that we draw like this - we think that there's a moral difference between causing people to die versus directly murdering them, things like that.

I don't think that he's killing people every time he throws his shield, or in the course of his work as a superhero. I mean, you're correct that it's not realistic that superheroes wouldn't kill people - but it's famously a conceit of the modern superhero genre that they don't. It's widely pointed out and acknowledged as something that's true even though it's unrealistic. And, again, the depiction of the character and his actions in the films backs this up.
