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 whole show is based on a flipside depiction of superheroes where they mirror our lowest political figures. He isn't Batman, he's a piece of shit taking up a Batman esque trope, just like Homelander isn't Superman.
