      I admittedly have a soft spot for Batman and superhero-related shit, but unlike anti-communists, I understand that comic books are fiction, using fiction to discuss real-world issues is very spotty, and that most of the capitalists don’t have even an ounce of the modicrum of coolness and self-respect and dignity that Batman has.
