Unpopular (?) opinion about the serum…

I don’t think the serum necessarily increases any kind of personality traits within a person when they take it. What the serum is representative of is power - not just physical, but power in general. And when people gain power, they don’t necessarily change as a person, but it reveals things about them.

When Steve Rogers took the serum, he didn’t become a better person. That little kind-hearted spitfire of a man with brittle bones and shitty lungs was no less brave than the muscular hunk he became after the serum. What changed was that the serum gave him power, and because of that people could finally see his bravery and goodness. Because people don’t look twice at disabled people, but they’ll pay attention to a military poster boy built like a brick house.

When John Walker took the serum, he didn’t become a more violent, angry man. It just allowed him to express his violence and anger in a more catastrophic way. Because that’s what power allows people to do. When you have more power, your good deeds are more visible, more impactful - and so are your misdeeds.

And I think it’s really interesting, considering the title and theme of the episode, that almost as soon as John took the serum - as soon as he gained this new power - everyone saw his darker side. Everyone realises that John Walker wasn’t such a great guy all along.
