They are literally being surrounded by people that have been trying to kill them for the entire week. And the people surrounding them is literally called the Track Suit Mafia.

You're acting as if Hawkeye and Kate just starting shooting arrows at anyone in their vicinity, even if it was just passerbys asking if they were ok after the literal tree fell into the ice rink. The people Jack were swording were all actively trying to attack him and the LARPers too.

Like, you're just complaining about something popular to complain and feel better about yourself. There are actual complaints you could make about the show that don't boil down to "why didn't NYPD arrest Hawkeye!??????????????" which is a dumb fucking question in the first place.

You could make actual complaints about things like how the world went to completely normal (or you know, close-to it looked like) after the Blip and Endgame. Shit like that is an actual question that is an actual complaint.

Things like "I didn't like how it was unrealistic that the superhero being chased by the mafia for a week shot arrows at people that didn't actively have guns pointed at their head, hand on the trigger. Gosh, won't NYPD do something about this?????" is just complaining to complain and that's why I'm dunking on your bullshit.

You're trying to be shittier version of UR where you take opposite takes on popular things to get the attention you were never given while growing up.

Doing personal attacks when somebody has an opinion you don't like/understand is not a good look.

Your fellow defender of the show, pegusus, just said yes to "there are literally no stakes and no rules, then what do you just fucking clap at the pretty colors on screen?".

Shouldn't a show have stakes/rules? How serious is any of this?

If your answer is "not serious at all, it's almost all bullshit" I can say "ok then the writing checks out", but I don't see why it's worth defending. And if your argument is like "take it as seriously as Iron Man 1, so fairly realistic, fairly serious", then yeah it's letting down the audience when the level of danger/stakes feels the same as "home alone".
