Mencius Moldbugman

A chain of irresponsibility leads to a series of cascading system failures The film is really Batman’s origin story. Order breaks down, chaos takes over, so order must be later restored Lack of authority creates Joker, who exacerbates the situation till a future Batman is born

The movie isn’t a call to arms. It’s a mirror to current year society & also to the secret yearnings and desires of those who are attracted to watch such a film. It acknowledges the shit they live in, but offers no redemption for them. That must come from a future generation.

The film also accurately depicts how the media fakes moral outrage and righteousness, but is really a cynical manipulator just in it for the clicks. Overall, I enjoyed it and recommend it. My only criticism was the final few minutes but I won’t discuss that due to spoilers.
