Does it really make sense that Batman is against Police Brutality?
>>215061969If superheros existed irl they would be called racist since the people they beat up and arrest would disproportionately be browns and blacks
>>>/co/
>>215062001Some people irl already call Batman a fascist because he beats criminal up.
>>215061969He’ll have some excuse on how his actions aren’t systemic or some gay shit.
>>215061969It's crazy that batman beats both criminals and police to a pulp pretty often in his comics
>>215061969>Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to fracture a jaywalker’s skull
>>215061969brutalizing mentally ill hobos and prostitutes should be a rich man's privilege
>>215062001if superheroes were real, they would be fighting supervillains, not random shoplifters, dumbass
>>215061969Batman is a product of a different time, when a rich man dressing up like a bat and beating up criminals, who stole jewels from other rich people, was something that people wanted to read about. Police brutality was never an issue for that Batman, because it did not exist. It was everyone's expectations that the police are good and virtuous.We no longer live in this time, and so now we have Absolute Batman - a communist out to each the rich.
>>215062413Batman beats up street criminals all the time
>>215062442Ahem, eat the rich
>>215062269Jaywalking? That's five years in the cubes.
>>215062442>Absolute Batman - a communist out to each the rich.The hell are you talking about
Batman has been fighting corrupt and abusive cops for decades in the books. Miller's Year One was a parallel story about both Batman and then Lieutenant Gordon dealing with the corrupt Gotham Police.
>>215062528Absolute Batman is an alternate timeline / Elseworlds series by Scott Snyder that started a year or so back. Bruce is cut off from his inhertance and his mom is still alive as a rich socialite.
police have rules of when and how to use force, with some dispensation for extraordinary situations. if they can't abide by their own rules then they're no better than the thugs
>>215062574>Bruce is cut off from his inhertance and his mom is still alive as a rich socialiteThat's not at all true. You clearly haven't read it, dude.
>>215062442Our current iteration of Batman was conceptualized back during the high crime rates of 1980's new york (You can see this in The Dark Knight Returns and Batman 89'). But when you try to do the gritty vigilante who stops muggings in a post 9/11 world, it just feels outdated
>>215061969no it doesnt, especially if they establised that those badboys are affraid of batman and not of the cops. Only snyder captured batman in a realistic way. That guy absolutely kills and is absolutely more brutal than the cops themselves.
>>215062442When rich men fugged boipussy and fought crime in spandex underwear
>>215062546Miller is liberal idiot. I’m against police brutality as I write about a vigilantly beating the fuck out of criminals. What Batman does is billion times worse m. He’s not an officer of the law. He has zero legal standing to do anything he does. Let alone assault people. He can’t claim self protection because he’s looking for criminals to beat up
>>215062606Which is nice in theory but you know they get away with a lot of shit still. >DURR HURR you're anti-copNo I'm not. I just want a better standard of the people who are supposed to serve and protect us. >>215062613Nobody here reads comics. Bruce Wayne's money and charities provide valuable jobs and projects to help out Gotham. And he's been a long advocate in giving ex-cons and anyone who else who made piss-poor decisions a chance in rehabilitation. He only beats up criminals because he has to stop them, but he never kills and he doesn't use guns. And Batman: Year One >>215062546 had him go against the corrupt officials, organized crime, and big business who were destroying Gotham as much as the petty thugs and low-lives in the streets. Bruce Wayne is against ALL forms of criminals in Gotham.
>>215062761> Only snyder captured batman in a realistic way. That guy absolutely kills and is absolutely more brutal than the cops themselvesSo he’s The Punisher
>>215062788Gotham has a long history of vigilantes. Alan Scott, the original Green Lantern was its original protector. And in the post-1985 Crisis on Infinite Earths revamp of the DC universe, the Reaper, a brutal vigilante who actually shot and sliced up criminals (even hookers) operated 20 years before Bruce took up the cape & cowl. Gotham is a rotten city and even without a Batman, there was always going to be a costumed vigilante to rise up against the filth.
Not against armed opposition or criminals who put up a fight but he would probably be against cops who punish helpless criminal who is already caught.
>>215062876Basically never happens
>>215062817No he isn't. In the original 1930's and 1940's comics, Batman did indeed kill and even used guns. But when he got reinvented in the Silver and Bronze Ages, he was a vigilante who had to do the dirty stuff that the cops and other legitimate figures couldn't do but he never crossed the line like taking a life. That's not on him to decide. Leslie Thompkins, a doctor who runs a street clinic, is Bruce's surrogate mother figure and instilled in him the sanctity of life. Without her guidance, he would've become something like the Punisher.
>>215062814haha you fag
>>215062847I know that, it’s a comic book. Talking about the lack of self awareness
>>215062725>But when you try to do the gritty vigilante who stops muggings in a post 9/11 world, it just feels outdatedsays who?
>>215062888It’s kind of a stupid distinction anyway, in real life if you can’t just go around constantly beating the hell out of people without accidentally killing someone.
>>215062546Do really White cops beat random nigs so easily?No way they dont get shot and stab to death.
>>215061969Unless you haven't figured it out, all of the major superheroes were created by Jews and push propaganda that is useful to Jews like going easy on criminals and going hard on cops.
>>215062413superheroes subdue petty criminals too
>>215061969No, as a supposed super-detective he should've been able to understand that it's a myth that is vastly exaggerated by the media and by left-wing/brown activists.He'd also notice that 90% of the violent criminals he interacts with are black, unless Gotham just happens to have an entirely white demographic, which is highly unlikely given its crime rate.If anything, he'd be accused of brutality and for beating up too many non-whites.
>>215062413Post Batman beating a nonviolent shoplifter then.
Worlds Greatest Detective never realized he could just use the old Bat Dick for justice
>CapeshitGrow up
>>215062814commie-troon lmao @ your sad life.>>215062606this sort of rhetoric made a degree of sense back before ethnic crime gangs became a billion-dollar enterprise and the built-to-fail war on drugs spent 30 years ruining american society while their traitorous leaders sold out their people.Police in the west are utterly outmatched by these insular gangs and have been completely hamstrung by civil rights activists. Cops being able to physically abuse criminals to get information and threaten them with crimes they didn't specifically commit, but they know the scumbag did other things warranting jail regardless, are the bread and butter of actually policing a society and keeping it clean. Doing everything by the book, means criminals walk en-masse and you fail in your goal. The current state of low grade crime epidemics is testament to this, alongside the popularity of The Shield and Life on Mars.A cop is not a robot, they have a brain, they can, if they're not stupid, with an above 90% success rate, spot a criminal on sight once they're experienced enough at their job, but in no western country can they actually ACT on that knowledge legally. I can tell all sorts of things from my customers within 10 seconds of talking to them in my job (casino), and how much money they are willing to spend with a 95+% accuracy, and i tailor what im saying and doing accordingly. Same thing.
>>215062725>it just feels outdatedNo, it doesn't. The problem is that we live in an insane world, where the worst people imaginable are painted as innocent victims, and the good, productive or average people are painted as the villains.
>>215063540stopping crime one anal raping at a time lmfao
>>215063586>smirking at your post as I continue to dust my Funko Pop collection
>>215063540Joker wouldn't consider it rape if Batman did it.
>>215062788>What Batman does is billion times worseNo.. While vigilante actions are wrong it's still the actions of one man. In most case they are technically still criminal actions too. So while bad they are still no where near as bad as illegal systemic governmental actions of the state against it's own citizens. Picture this like a solo doctor making the illegal choice to go against the hippocratic oath VS the entire medical field doing it. One teacher deciding girls under 13 are OK to sex up VS the entire department of education say it as a guideline.It's not apples to apples. It's why Floyd's death, despite him being a total scum bag, was way worse that a conservative raise guy shooting Charlie Kirk.
>>215062042didnt they say batman was fascists in the blue beetle movie produced by james gunn?
>>215062442>police brutality didnt exist until 2020 when saint floyd died
forcing a lot of police to wear body cams has completely debunked most of the police brutality narratives
>>215063716if it was said by a fat hispanic i suppose there's a degree of plausible deniability? Or is it the same type of retarded virtue signal like in spidercuck: far from home where the snarky liberal student said the DC pyramid was built by slaves?
>>215062574>Bruce is cut off from his inhertance and his mom is still alive as a rich socialite.You haven't read it. The Waynes weren't rich in the world.
>>215063797Does it? I haven't kept up but isn't this good for the cops then? They always argue that if everyday people they stop have nothing to fear if they're not doing any crimes, the same applies to cops when they're on-camera at all times.
>>215063883most of the "he dindu nuffin" routine is just completely obliterated because the next day the body cam footage comes out and shows he did in fact do sumfin
>>215061969That's totally in character>rich billionaire who thinks only he can save HIS city/world>beats people far worse than some of his own villains>cops doing exactly what he would if not less is somehow against his codeOf course a billionaire psycho thinks only he should be allowed to dole out punishment. I just hope someone called him out on it like one of the cops saying "I just scraped up some dudes teeth who was running away from you what about due process there huh? Or are you too busy helping the joker escape again so he can kill someone else I love?"
>>215063907LOL, that's fucking hilarious. Then why are there cops who are against wearing the body cameras? It makes their accusers look like assclowns.
>>215063907just because someone acted like a nigger doesn't mean you get to rodney king them once they are in cuffs. Plus all the white men answering the doors and being blasted on sight despite wrong address.
Yes you retards, the whole point of Batman since 1987 is that he is as mentally ill as the people he fights, you figured it out, case closed, great job
>>215061969I've never liked Batman, this char makes no sense to me.if he's so smart why can't he see the big problem in Gotham is bad politicians and corruption?if he's a genius billionaire, why doesn't he work with the feds to change things? Can't be that hard to trap a corrupt judge or politician considering his position.If arkham asylum is so shit at keeping insane criminals locked why doesn't he just build he own private prison? if people are poor why doesn't he create more jobs? even bs jobs would probably help reduce criminality a bit.
>>215064118His parents were killed and he is in a state of arrested development thinking you can still punish crime and solve it's issues by spanking it occasionally.
>>215061969only billionaires are allowed to beat the shit out of crazy people you fuckin chud #Resist
>>215063973link one example faggot.>>215063986>Plus all the white men answering the doors and being blasted on sight despite wrong address.isnt that the swat teams being incompetent at fault?
>>215064286>being incompetent at faultbrutality through incompetence is arguably worse than brutality through malice. Either way brutality is brutality. Tell me how shooting a man answering his door is not brutal.
>>215064370its bad, but they're not beat-cops, thats not the main problem with policing in america, your potentially shifting the goalposts by bringing it up like that.
>>215064451Police brutality is police brutality you are trying to move goal posts by choosing the definition of police brutality. SWAT are police. They work out of a police department.
>>215061969>shatters a henchman's cheekbone, breaks his ribs, and then stomps on his ankle until it snaps>"Excessive force is bad!">defiantly sucks a mass-murdering clown's penis in front of a lady justice statue
>>215061969Yes.
>>215064522now you're just muddying the waters because you got a hate boner for your one pet-issue. Im sorry the swat team buttfucked you and your gay dad after you got swatted by some redditor, now can we please get back to the topic at hand?
>>215064621>bringing up homosexuality out of nowhereWhat an odd thing to say. First of all you’re a fag. Secondly would that not be police brutality? Or do you think Batman would support swat raping people like the idf?
the police in the new Batman run are corrupt and lead by Vandal Savage. One of them just shot Robin before this panel. yeah they written to be comically bad but it is a comic
>>215062725>it just feels outdatedWhat are you on about? Gritty vigilantism and out of control street-level crime has never been more relevant.
>>215064621>changes the topic>by bringing up homosexuality >can we get back on topicIt’s funny you bring up a redditor because your post reads just like one.
>>215064621What’s your definition of police brutality?
>>215064621What’s the topic at hand? Police brutality or your homosexual fantasies?
>>215064942i dont care about police brutality, so long as its against criminals. It doesnt bother me at all, kneel on that neck boi.
Did you know that Batman is for six year olds
>>215062413Batman and Superman regularly deal with "random shoplifters". Crime is crime.
>>215061969>Only I get to punish criminals with a beating.At least cops are allowed to kill criminals occasionally.
>>215062042all capeshit is fascist but jews think it’s fine when they do it
>>215062442>police brutality didn't existYou mean it didn't exist in the public consciousness. I doubt you're naive enough to think people didn't abuse their power back then.
>>215064118In the DCU crime is a literal religious metaphysical thing, it can’t be stopped that easily.
>>215061969I'm stuck in a hotel watching cable and just re-watched BvS. It's unreal how brutally it mogs Gunn's Superman Absolutely brutal.
>>215062413With how bad the consequences of unchecked, shoplifting can effect local residents and business owners, there'd be at least one superhero whose gimmick is that they catch thieves and then break every bone in both of their hands with a hammer.
>>215062475Who is more autistic about justice? Dredd or Batman?
>>215061969No he's against crime and therefore is against niggers.
>>215064118Nobody wants to read a comic book about that gay shit
>>215061969>Enters private property without a warrant>Evidence is thrown out in Court>Case dismissed.>Criminal goes free to kill again>Not my Bat-problem.
