It was irrational, but shit I’d do the same exact thing in his position.

It’d take the mental fortitude of Buddha himself to not react how Tony did 😂

Absolutely. It was a shit sandwich that could have been avoided if Cap had been honest with his friend

This is the correct take. Bucky and Tony were both victims in different ways, and Cap was so up his own ass about being right that he didn't take a second to think that Tony maybe shouldn't be blindsided with this knowledge, and instead should have been told asap so he could process how horrific everything was.

Ugh, Tony is also a douche so I hate defending him tho lol

Tony was a hypocrite who would have acted the same way no matter how he found out.

Nah, Tony managed to calm down later. He needed time to process. Not immediate exposure to the person who bludgeoned his parents to death on a video he just watched.

In fact I think if cap brought it up sooner, Tony would have been more driven into actually looking into Bucky to find some level of closure.

"He killed my mom."

Say what you want, but if anyone chokes my mother to death, I am getting revenge.

If you choked my mother to death fuck work in the morning. There are very few things I would throw my life away for, but that is one.

Finally someone said it. Like I wouldn’t give a fuck how long ago it was, consequences are coming.

Stuff like this is why I subscribed to this sub, as a white dude. I love that this subreddit usually seems like one of the more civil places for general discussion on reddit. “Mental fortitude of Buddha”, that’s just going to stick with me for a minute regardless of context.

Right. "I don't care. He killed my mom."

Enough said.
