American Psycho is excellent though, if someone walks out of that film thinking Bateman is a cool guy then there's probably not much hope for them

          Joker is the result of revolutionary potential without revolutionary theory.

        I'd also argue that Heath Ledger's Joker was supposed to be at least somewhat of a leftist but filtered through the lense of Nolan's deranged conservative worldview

        Think about it, the only reason Bane was the villain of the 3rd movie was because Ledger died and had he not then the Joker would have been the one having capitalists dragged from their luxury apartments into the streets and having Wall Street scumbags tried for their crimes against the people

        Even in the Dark Knight the case could be made that what the Joker meant when he vaguely said that no one cares about people dying so long as it's "part of the plan" was meant both as a criticism of how many people die of poverty within :amerikkka: as well as this country's genocidal foreign policy

        Of course that didn't stop moron incels from thinking it was just cool to shoot up movie theaters
