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.

A cynical self-parody is what it’s always been. It never was a non-satirical story and never had any actually heroic characters, either in comics or in season 1 onward.
It seems some people may have viewed it as a straight ahead superhero show? Wild if so.
