The dude has done messed up stuff to serve his country and is haunted by those deeds. Those deeds made him a good soldier tho, which is why he was made Cap. They made him Cap, but forgot that Cap wasn't just a regular dude. Steve didn't have a horrible military history prior to becoming Cap, and he was a super soldier. Walker was always destined to fail because he has disadvantages that Steve didn't.
That's why he's sympathetic. Not because he's white or a patriot. It's because, similar with Isaiah and many soldiers, he was built by the government to do what they want and then when they become something the government no longer has any need for, or want nothing to do with, they're tossed aside and forgotten about or erased..
