I'm hardly convinced anything but the movies actually happens in the MCU anymore. The Netflix shows just consistently refer to the battle of New York like that's the only event that ever happened, unless all of these shows are seriously just crammed into the space between Avengers 1 and 2. Also the way many characters call it "the incident" or whatever phrasing they use makes it sound like they're talking about some ancient battle when Sauron was on the brink of wiping out Middle Earth, it's this far removed mythology that they believe shaped their world but no one has any details. Agents of SHIELD is worse about it because we know they claim to keep up with the movie timelines by ham-fisting references into things but then they do stuff that should absolutely call attention and it doesn't because the movies won't reference the shows. I get that there's a huge difference in how shows and movies are made especially regarding scheduling but the strictly one-sided nature of the MCU totally wrecks that "all connected" spiel they tried spinning.
