User blog comment:T-888/Do the Sokovia Accords really matter?/@comment-1120910-20170908204328/@comment-26838855-20170908213808

I agree that the Accords should have more of a presence. I hope they're a part of Black Panther and/or Avengers: Infinity War to really feel the more of the ramifications of Civil War. However, it didn't so much bother me with Homecoming (or The Defenders because it seems to be just as the Accords were coming into play anyway) because the impression I got is that it is not about vigilantism - that's left to the cops. It's not the same as the Superhero Registration Act (for a start, secret identities aren't so much of a thing in the MCU), but the fact it is named for Sokovia and the dialogue in the film suggested to me that this is about preventing another incident like Sokovia - or anything before - preventing mass destruction, damage, and/or loss of life. So Cap going rogue to hunt down a supposed serial assassin and terrorist is outside the law for signing, but if Spider-Man wants to try to take down local criminals, that's New York's problem, not the UN's.
