They don't like original MCU Captain America, and they don't think he was given enough of an character arc (meaning, I think, they thought he was samey throughout). Because of this, they are sad at the missed opportunity and think that The new Captain America of the Falcon and Winter Soldier tv show making the Captain America role in general look bad would have worked better if Steve-Cap had more of an arc to go on and had been a better character.

They seem to think that Steve-Cap was as much a symbol only as the new Cap and was a flat character apart from being a symbol of an American ideal. So for them the contrast doesn't work because it isn't strong enough.

I don't agree with them at all, but I think that's what they are saying.

Ah ok, I think I get it now. And I think I also don't agree.

Wasn't Steve picked for the programme for being a guy who you wouldn't expect to be that sort of symbol? And Wyatt was obviously set up as the opposite of that for being highly decorated and having done X number of things in service plus being how the powers that be see themselves. I'm not saying it's perfect (nor that Steve was always handled perfectly) but it's basically an anvil to the head about how unsuitable the script thinks Wyatt is by comparison and despite some of the cruddy decisions with Steve's character journey, he was consistently seen to be putting personal glory behind what he felt was right.

Yup. Exactly.

Yeah, Steve was picked because he was an underdog and got a lot of shit throughout life, and the doctor (whose name I can't spell and am too lazy to google) thought that would keep the power from going to his head
