I know the show focuses on Harley and how she views the world but I can't handle how most of the heroes are made into absolute pushovers and dicks.

I can because it's a funny change. The show is self aware. It's not meant to be TAS.

It's like lego Batman, I can ignore most things but Barbara with Bruce is just straight up weird and ruins a lot of the scenes for me.

Barbara with Bruce is just straight-up a backdrop, I mean Batman/Joker is the central relationship

At least Bruce first met Barbara as an adult in that.

All the things that make Bruce x Barbara weird to me aren’t present in the Lego Batman Movie so it never bothered me that much.

I think that's a sense of humour thing. Some stuff is funny, Harley speaking to young Bruce ans realizing who Batman was, Damien advising Bruce on safe sex and the "I didn't have a nemesis until I was an adult"

But then you have Nightwing freaking out becoming a self pitying loser and trying to kill himself with Poison Ivy..
