    I want a batman movie where the moral is we shouldn’t rely on some billionaire to clean up the streets. But rather we should ensure Bruce Wayne is taxed enough so that there’s enough money for public services to support Gotham and it’s residents that crime doesn’t happen in the first place.

    Jesus Christ Batman is just some rich Elon Musk type asshole isn’t he?

      Black Adam was so close to hitting the point where Super Heroes protect the elite class and don’t care about the people

      Then they just backed away from it and I was so disappointed

      In many depictions he does fund social programs and whatnot, but it doesn’t fix Gotham being Silicon Valley for supervillains. Half his rogues gallery have doctorates.

      I mean… Joker is as close as you can get to some moral like that? It’s basically a pure critique of this neoliberal and unsocial society.
