Great movie, saw it Friday, will see it again this afternoon.
Would be interested to know how many moviegoers watched Civil War and will see Infinity war. While the deep politics of this movie are interesting to debate, especially in the "hotep community"), a lot of T'Challa beliefs, reservations and motivations carry over from the events of Civil War and must flow seamlessly into Infinity War.
Remember (fictional world), Wakanda sat back and watched super heroes and villains and aliens tear up cities since WW2, imagine if they had the vibranium which would make it even worse. Red Skull and Hydra surely would have tried to run all up in Wakanda and try to take that. Watching the Hulk and Iron Man wreck an African city in AOU. You can see why they stayed isolated from the affairs of the world. So its hard to apply real world social-political issues to their decision to not want to get involved.
If anything it lends more credence to why T’Challa had to get involved. Klaue with the little bit of vibranium he got his hands on essentially caused all of the events in Age of Ultron. That’s why it made Killmonger’s plan, though noble and seemingly the “right” thing to do VERY dangerous. T’Challa chose to take responsibility for his country’s resources winding up in anyone’s hands he doesn’t approve of.
