so dick as robin can want to kill the man who murdered his parents and bruce thinks no less of him, but jason as robin can want to be violent with pimps, rapists, and drug dealers because of his experiences growing up and bruce thinks he's going to become the dirtiest, nastiest murderous criminal in the world?

#this can all be explained in one phrase: rich white man #dick was violent as well when he wanted to kill zucco #and sure bruce might've resonated more with dick bc they share the same backstory #but him just automatically seeing jason in a bad light after he gets violent with criminals is so...#welcome to classism: dc's speciality #it's funny because i would maybe defend bruce if he said jason would've become a criminal without his intervention if jason was a teenager #or young adult #but bruce saw a full on child not even twelve years old #clearly stealing just to be able to afford some food for the night because he's homeless and has no parents #and just automatically saw him as a future criminal instead of the starving child he was #jason todd #red hood #batman #bruce wayne #dc #dick grayson
