lazycreativity24-7: karadin:And yet people suffer bullies, abuse, are poor and never become batshit mass murderers. Yet white guys not only are given a pass, they are lionized for it. I don’t know if this will help change some of your view but I saw this movie as Arther being the mask the Joker put on and it slowly being ripped apart.When watching it, I kept feeling uncomfortably awkward like my own awkwardness was being amplified by what was shown. I just retained this feeling that something was squirming around underneath his skin trying to coming out and it was the Joker. He was always an insane, murderous guy but something (his child abuse, his mother, the trauma between these two things) made him believe it was best to force those thoughts down. He saw this, analytically, as the best way to survive at that moment; however, the mask gained attachments (The Murry Show, his mother, his job, being a comedian) which forced the Joker to sleep. When Arther saw his attachments crumble into dust, become worthless, the mask cracked away. It would explain why the girlfriend he hallucinated kept praising and instigating his psychopathic tendencies and not his kinder ones.I’m not denouncing the mental illness aspect of it. I’m just saying the ones that gave you a sense of sympathy, a reason for his behavior, are more than not what the Joker hand-picked to explain away his stranger characteristics or make him easier to “blend” in.When Murry said “It’s almost like you’re trying to make excuses as to why you killed those guys,” I thought “No shit! Run!” That was the final break.At the start of the film, I thought his spontaneous laughter was him crying. In reality, he was laughing at the thought of killing them all and no one would get it. -- source link
