[QUOTE="zubenelgenubi, post: 4938372, member: 63706"] Winter Soldier was a MCU Captain America movie, where S.H.I.E.L.D. (supposed to be the good guys) developed giant air bases with the technology to target and kill specific individuals, meant to be used against terrorists. Turns out Hydra infiltrated S.H.I.E.L.D. and high level government positions. Thus, the bad guys now had the power to kill millions of targets, simultaneously, and they were in a position to redefine who the terrorists were. That is not that dissimilar to what we see unfolding before our very eyes in the real world. Regardless of the degree to which you believe that to be true, the story still acts as a warning against anyone having too much power. Is their some other "winter soldier" reference that deals with the Vietnam war? That is another great, real life, example of the bad guys masquerading as good guys. They immorally conscripted people to commit atrocities under the supposed auspices of freedom and liberty, but really it was just so defense contractors could make lots of money. [/QUOTE]
