Watching When Marnie was there for the first time and being like "i want a gay love story like this" and then its her grandma
So seeing what happened with Sam Wilson at the end of the first episode of FATWS, I want to draw attention back to this moment from the trailer:

Back when this trailer first premiered, I didn’t really think much of it. It was just Captain America being cheered on by the public.
Now that John Walker has been officially introduced, this image just feels…disgusting, on a subtle level. It’s a predominantly black marching band/cheerleading squad celebrating John Walker, a white man who stole the Captain America mantle from Sam Wilson, a black man who earned the shield from the original Cap. Black performers are being made to celebrate a white man who stole another black man’s rightful legacy. Everything about this moment just feels gross, which I’m 100% pretty sure is intentional.
I knew the series would focus on what it’s like for Sam to be a black Captain America, representing a country that doesn’t want him representing them, but it’s still tough to stomach.
