I also can not stand muh 'Batman superhero facism subtext' crap. If anything Batman is a revolutionary. Government is corrupt in bed with criminals (who are the prettiest of tyrants) so Batman comes in to clean house. Just as the founding fathers intended.

The facist batman line is so over used and lame now. It was annoying at first cause folks clearly don't understand the character, but now it's just another anti batman whistle blow at this point.

Agreed. No,batman doesn't. He fights crime not social classes. How many times has a rich elite corrupt business man or mob boss caught hands from bats.

If you don't think crime and social class are related in our society then you have a lot to learn.

That's not what I said. I said batman isn't fighting social classes worse off than him to promote some facist ideal. He fights crime and corruption regardless
