Luke Cage mentions Obama being president but...it's not really clear exactly whats up with the Netflix shows and/or if it's just a continuity error.

It's an error. But don't they only refer to him by "Obama" and not president? Obama was well known before running for president.

(In the MCU, he also could have lost a second term and Ellis is a Republican president. There are ways around the continuity error.)

Ellis is still president of whatever/wherever Agents of SHIELD takes place (if it truly is part of the main MCU?)

It is.

No one wonders why Jemma has a British accent when apparently only Americans have survived the apocalypse?

Their solution to the movie universe ignoring them is to just kill off the movie universe? lol

Now I want someone on SHIELD to find the gauntlet with the gems and decide to throw it away because they think it's trash.

You'd think if the world blew up, Thor or The Guardians would want to help... lol

If the world blew up dude to one incident...what is there to help?

There is indication that people were moved off-world in some fashion due to the event. It's likely some may have been helped by more benevolent powers. Why would they stay around after?

This is not the Guardians' or Thor's show though.
It's a lot like comic books. Sometimes there is a world ending event taking place in one book while in another in the same universe you are not seeing it at all. Stuff is taking place at different times or the different perspective makes a whole lot of difference. It's easier for creators to tell stories that way.

This show hasn't been connected in about 3 seasons. I wish people would understand that and just let it go.

Just because they aren't bombarding you with connections doesn't mean it's not part of the connected MCU.

We just have to accept that connected means different things. I'm completely OK with the occassional mention or the B-tier C-tier guest star. (thinking Sif or Maria Hill here.) Hell, Coulson was hiding the helicarrier for Fury.

What I get irritated with is more with Netflix, when they're too damned lazy to drop the Avengers tower in the city scape backgrounds. There's no excuse for it.

Did the Sokovia Accords get mentioned on a Netflix show?

I agree, the Netflix shows are generally lazy about even at least referencing the larger world. I don't need crossovers. I understand why they are a problem between TV and films. It would be nice to at least make the Netflix shows feel like they are a part of the larger MCU.

I think the Netflix shows are still way behind the movies.

I think the Netflix shows are still way behind the movies.

Here's the segment of the timeline that's relevant to the Netflix shows:

August 2014 — Guardians of the Galaxy
August to September 2014 — Daredevil Season 1
September 2014 — Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2
October 2014 — Agents of SHIELD Season 2 episodes 3 through 5
January to March 2015 — Jessica Jones Season 1
March 2015 — Agents of SHIELD Season 2 episode 6 through 19
April 2015 — Avengers: AoU, Agents of SHIELD Season 2 ends
July 2015 — Daredevil Season 2 begins through episode 6
July to October 2015 — Ant-Man
October through November 2015 — Agents of SHIELD Season 3 begins through episode 10
November through December 2015 — Daredevil Season 2 episodes 7 through 13, Luke Cage Season 1
December 24, 2015 — Daredevil Season 2 ends
February 2016 — Doctor Strange (gets into accident)
January through April 2016 — Agents of SHIELD Season 3 episodes 11 through 19
April 2016 — Captain America: Civil War, Agents of SHIELD Season 3 episodes 20 through 22
June to July 2016 — Iron Fist Season 1
July 2016 — Doctor Strange (begins training)
August to September 2016 — Spider-Man: Homecoming
November 2016 — The Defenders
November to December 2016 — The Punisher Season 1
February 2017 — Doctor Strange (fights Kaecilius)

So the Netflix shows are about a year behind realtime, but they've been happening around the same time as several movies.

Stop the planet from blowing up in the first place?

Kill all the Avatar aliens who have enslaved humanity?
Why are you making the assumption they didn't try to stop it in the first place? Just because the planet blew up doesn't mean they didn't try. Sometimes heros fail. Tune in May 2018 to find out how...

We also don't know how much time has passed between the planet destruction and when the colony was established. We know it was built about 90 years ago but not the time frame between the planet getting blown up and when it was built. Could've been survivors on the planet chunk that they captured months or years later.

They said the planet was uninhabitable but they also said those cockroach aliens we're on what was left over as well. Maybe it's uninhabitable because there are too many of them for it to be safe. Don't forget this could also be just one possible timeline of the time stone fuckery.
