Dark Knight Rises: There isn't another spin on it. It's dialed up in the third film where a major plot point is the difference between a functioning society and a non-functioning one is the police force. This is the fascist police state movie.
It's been forever since I've seen that movie, but isn't Bane just objectively right? Like not even in a "Killmonger is right, but he shouldn't have started kicking puppies" way?
He has to be for something to be right about it. He's not really for anything except exposing Gotham's corruption but not in a way that makes sense, and only really kind of by accident. He recovers notes from Gordon about the "truth of Harvey Dent." Bane later exposes the Harvey Dent/Two Face lie to the people of Gotham, as if it was his plan all along. But his plan was set into motion long before he discovered those notes, so I'm just going to have to conclude no. Bane was not right about anything, nor wrong about anything. He's just a cartoon villain who plans to kill everybody in Gotham, including himself. The movie just makes it appear that he's about more than this. A sort of deception on the filmmaker's part to make the movie's plot appear complex.

B-b-but the rich people's houses got looted! A-and they had people's courts!
