Yeah, I think it did. Everybody knows what Hydra is, and what they've done. But somehow, every time they get a new leader, they manage to convince some people they're the kinder, gentler authoritarian-subversive terrorist organization bent on world domination. This time, they'll make the world a better place.

I guess that's fascism for you. Convincing people there's a "former glory" they can rebuild if they just murder enough people who aren't part of the fascist vision board. Lot of that going around these days.

I don't know. For a while, I had a side job helping people who wanted to leave get out. But it's hard to keep faith when a lot of them ended up going back or getting killed because they weren't ready to really cut ties.


[ And there was the one Bucky fucked up by accidentally killing that kid's dad. A long story he doesn't want to get into, but certainly one of his more significant recent regrets. ]
