Back on my bullshit 🙏
#look me in the eye. ba/tjokes is NOT about bruce falling in love w the joker#its about bruce's savior clymplex and the guilt of being unable to save his best friend (Harvey)#inevitably compelling him to latch onto a lost cause!!!!! he knows better and he knows he knows better#but if THE JOKER can be really legitimately redeemed then isnt there hope for everyone?????#isnt there hope for harvey??? for harleen??? for the countless others hes sent off to Arkham in the hopes theyll recover...#even if time and time again they simply dont????#and truly WHO is more emblematic of everything wrong w gotham than the Joker#making all of gotham better as one man must feel like a lost cause and that has GOT to fuck up your psyche six ways from Sunday#bruce aint stupid but it requires a certain level of stubborn naivete to dress up in a batsuit and go around as a one man militia#and i think that exact same thought process that has lent him so much strength is also ripe to be taken advantage of with the right pressure#nobody knows the joker better than batman.....and that makes the reverse just as true#it is not about the romance to me it is about the battle between good and evil rooting itself into every aspect of bruce's life#this is rambling on i gotta stop#the riddle rambles on
