Yennooyea? Facist being rules enforced by extreme dictatorship. He is a facist because he uses force to enforce rules, but that's such a vague definition that any individual will be considered a facist if he wants to assert his personal domain. Be it his own house. Which is just assinine to proclaim.
No, the will of the people to vote to enforce laws against crime, has been neglected by police and politicians, batman is acting out the will of the people to clean up Gotham. These rules were decided on by the people.
You can say any rule that is established and enforced is facism, but the nuance that makes it less cut and dry is people's votes, and how rules are enforced, but I digress.
Hes not facist, hes not working for the government like superman.

You can say that Frank Miller's Batman is authoritarian. But there is no racialism or nationalism in DKR, so all the talk about fascist seems to be serving sensationalism and only that.
Samuel Jenkins
Racialism doesn't correlates with fascism. Fascism isnt even a right or left wing thing. Stop understanding fascism on a burger way.
Henry Howard
Authoritarian adheres to some kind of authority, like a government.
What authority is batman trying to get criminals to adhere too? Be it the street punks and sleazy politicians?
Henry King
Fascism seems to be pretty right wing. It say so in almost every definition of a word. But yeah racialism started with German fascism, but Italy and Mussolini seem to adapt most of Hitler's ideas in that regard. So I don't think I said anything wrong or misleading
Connor Martin
this fucking ground zero batwank ruined DC forever
you could argue that Batman is an overall facist due to his stance on crime but authoritarian in DKR? absolutely, same beef with old Batman in Kingdom Come and Timm's incestuous fetish for Barbara and Bruce. DC is obsessed with turning their funny book characters into grimdark garbage in the most superficial and shallow read possible. I'm just so glad BvS bellyflopped to put the final nail on the coffin of that ridiculous story.

>Fascism seems to be pretty right wing. Dial8
William Robinson
>Fascism seems to be pretty right wing. It was started by a Socialist when he was kicked out of his socialist group for being TOO socialist.

Himself. Which is pretty much a single strongman figure, rather than a select few or many
Nathan Morris
Right wing is about economic factors only, just like being lefty. It has nothing to do with fags, nigs, racism, being conservative or any other dumb thing Americans and associated to it.
