Joker is about social isolation, mental illness and depression
>Joker is about assimilation with gentiles and its impossibility, at least while remaining insular and neurotic
>Rebellion against G-d the Father in absent Father, Wayne
>20th century post-Shoah line of thinking that the covenant was broken with G-d by G-d through inaction [like absent Wayne]
Normies are what made it a multi-billion grossing film. That's down to marketing and being purpose built: for normies -- as a run of the studio mill "Wagies RISE UP!" mixed in with some race tension against white wallstreet suits, it's in line with what the studio system has been putting out for a decade or so now on that media programming front.
Dangerously based
uh because it's all normies joke about
haven't you ever been to a facebook group or Yas Forums? it's literally just meme after meme of laughing about xanax and being depressed
seriously, go look at a "ylyl" on Yas Forums right now, it's full of LOL RANDOM WACKY SOUND EFFECT MUSIC VIDEOS and LE EPIC SADBOY SUICIDE memes
>except joker is literally the most popular villain in comicbook history
Seriously. He's probably in the top 5 of comic book characters.outside of Batman, Superman, Spiderman, I really can't think of any comic book characters I'd put over joker
You wouldn't get it
Alright... I was hating at first, but that's pretty based. I might have been wrong.
Because normalfags think sad = depressed. It's becoming more and more common to be depressed, and since we live in a society where mental illness awareness exists, mental illness is discussed more and more. I've never been depressed/mentally ill but I highly doubt all these normalfags have actually been either.
Because it’s an overwhelmingly sympathetic movie despite its New Hollywood edge. Arthur has a valid reason for his situation and you can’t blame nearly any of his misfortunes on himself. It’s easy to why so many people latched onto him. The movie directly points its finger on a corrupt society and the people who abuse the weak.
For the opposite, see someone like Travis Bickle who’s a repulsive hypocritical character with very little logical thought. You can chalk up his loneliness and bizarre personality on PTSD or something but it’s fair to argue that Travis was someone who was messed up before the war. Taxi Driver completely eschews any sympathetic angle for Travis for a more bare honest one. It’s not afraid of criticising its protagonist but the movie is largely absent of any moralising. Abrasive protagonists and anti-moralising is repellent for the general audience.
The ONLY reason you faggots like joker so much is because of all those articles that came out that told you it was an incel movie and you expected him to be litterally you.
You are so influenced by these journalists and dont even know it.
