6. You accept the interpretation of Joker and Batman as correct.

You do know that most tv flips the script to present things backwards, don't you? And many people flip them back.

For example, some people like Batman.

Lets see, he is extremely rich and uses that power for vigilante justice.

First how many people think the very rich in money, are the best of people. Sure many are great people, but often I think on the lady who gives 2 pennies more often. So being rich itself is not good or bad, but what is done with that riches.

Is Cheney, Bush, rich CEOs all batmen? Are they deciding who is bad and who is good?

Vigilantism.

Which by all arguments is bad. It claims the right of dealing out punishment or justice without the guarantees of due process. It also leverages money or power to deal out that self presumed justice.

If you still don't think vigilantism justice is bad, ask yourself, would you like to be on the receiving end of someones vigilantism? How about some random person decides, whoops, your bad, down you go. How would you like that? You see most people think of vigilantism from the delivering side, since they want to be the sole decider on what is right and wrong. They want power. However, for every batman, there are hundreds wrongly treated due to lack of justice.

Personally I believe in as much justice as our minds can present, by using jury's and studied systems of law and justice. Quite simply, Justice is order, and Batman is chaos.

Of coarse he is presented differently, that stream wants people to claim the right to be sole judge and strike out against their neighbor. This works really well for when a smear is started on someone, suddenly all the people that think justice should not exist, jump up and judge the person without perspective and justice.

And what about the joker, sure in the flipped script he is bad, but re-flip it, he just wants people to be happy and is trying to stop the injustice of batman. (of coarse in the flipped script, of "Batman" the joker is shown to be crazy and violent.)

Or the riddler, sidestepping the fact that interpretation is a form of riddle, and many teachers in holy books spoke in riddle form, we have to look at the impact of a riddle. It forces thought, and introspections. It allows for seeing oneself. A person that gives a riddle does not want to tell you what to think, he wants you to think for yourself.

The story of Batman is a control mechanism to keep you enslaved. It guides you to judge without justice, and think highly of those who have money and power and do that same thing.
