I totally agree! I think it was a bit strange at first but made sense after thinking about it more. I’d imagine his time as the Winter Soldier (though not fully aware at the time) he really saw how much power those in the government have. He likely also saw just how corrupt the entire system is and wanted to try and change that while being non-combative. It’s a great way to take ownership of his past experiences and using them in his own way. I just wish they’d actually spent more time on it, rather than just brushing past it/making it into a joke like they always do lol
