It's a tale about a billionaire fascist who "fights crime". I wouldn't expect anything remotely realistic.
Motherfucker almost all of Batman's rogue gallery are rich mob bosses that he literally cannot fight with money or the law because the entire law is bought by said rich mob bosses. Also tell me how Bruce Wayne giving the Joker billions is gonna stop him from bombing orphanages and gassing entire hospitals.
Oh, and the city is literally fucking cursed, and there's a secret society that does its best to keep it as corrupt and as crime ridden as possible to keep their power and status.
Maybe you should read comics instead of taking your entire knowledge of Batman from "now talk" Arkham Batman memes.
Hell, a billionaire vigilante so disconnected from the lives of normal people with his secret lair, custom supercar, SAS butler, and fancy unattainable gadgets that looks down on the people who just want to protect themselves with guns seems realistic enough to me.
"No killing, now watch me throw some nameless henchman off this fucking roof."
Y'all need to stop using Arkham Batman as your point of reference.
Tbf there's so many over time, would you prefer I use Grey Pajamas Batman or Nipple Suit Batman instead?
But in the current comics that are being released today he still very much embodies all the things I mentioned, as far as I've seen, so I don't think he's changed his position on that just yet.
