    I see you’re just going to deliberately leave out the context.

    That wasn’t a homeless person, it was a patient at the asylum. Hugo Strange had injected him and 4 others with grown hormone that turned them into mindless, rage filled monsters, and there was no cure. It’s needlessly violent and careless but that is in no way “Batman lynching a homeless man”

    I don’t know what it is with people on Lemmy trying to dishonesty reframe the legacy of that character just because he’s wealthy. It’s so petty and pointless.

      1: Guess where 40’s asylums got a lot of their patients. Guess what happened to most of them if they did get released.

      2: There was a cure, Batman himself made it in the comic.

      3: Do you think being a victim of a medical experiment makes it better?

      Nice “real context,” simp.
