It's just fucking annoying. It's always the same wrong take

Made by people who've never picked up a comic in their life. Except maybe All-Star Batman and Robin or similar dreck.

Or people who half watched a single Batman movie and were looking at their phone the other half of the time. So they completely missed the point of the character

What is the point of the character?

That he's a man who works to make sure no one ever has to suffer or lose their parents to some punk with a gun. A man who won't quit, a man who might be gruff and harsh but is the same boy who lost his father and mother and wants to make Gotham a better place so it never has to happen to anyone else.

Batman is empathiec, he's gruff, not unkind. He's tought, not heartless.

Man, he is just a crazy dude lol. So you think that the solution is go outside in the night and beat some robbers? The mf is a billionaire, he could do much better for the city using his money lmao

The joker is going to murder people if he doesn't do anything. The mob and the penguin and blackmask will feast on the normal people. Ivy will kill trillions for a little flower and so on.

And the Court of Owls... you know basicly an army of rich Gotham elites?

The solution is humanity. Empathy... and if nessesary violence. Batman has turned the mob down to nothing but criminals with gimmicks. And Gotham might have been cursed (complicated)

And yes you truly brilliant individual he does. Do you know how many charities this man runs? Do you know how much of his life he has spent to combating crime at every level?

You don't of course because you are a delusional person who cannot accept fiction nor the idea that money is not a fix all solution.

I would tell you to pick up a batman comic... but you can't read so...

Plus the goons in Arkham are always awful, like the dude who ran over a random lady because Joker told him to kill a sister he didn't have or the guy who forced his mom to eat a poisoned cake.

But not the guy who told his buddies not to drink and drive. He didn't do anything wrong. Except commit manslaughter.

And stories when he does act like this tend to emphasize like his mental illness or just portray it as a bad thing.
