another overthinked geeky question about batman universe
11 years ago
is the joker really a villain or an anti villain?
.. ok this most sound strange when talking about someone that enjoys hurting people
but seeing how many times the joker seems to be more interested in proving his point than anything else including his own well-being ... does that kind of makes him a bit heroic in nature... i mean i guess it all depends on why is he really is trying to accomplish by send his message in the first place ... does he truly believe in what he is doing or is he just tricking others into a self destructive path out of enjoyment or hate ?
at least in the dark knight he seems to speak twisted truths and lies as everything he says can be interpreted in different ways
like his whole " do i look like guy with a plan " argument with harrvy dent
for one hand ..it is a lie he doesn't have plan.. (it kind of impossible not to make plans) and taking others people plan and twisting them is a plan in itself
however this may also be interpreted as people always trying to have an absolute defined structured idea of how the world works never minding that the world is chaotic and always changing and most of this structures we use to define reality create or based on fallacies and misinterpretations of or own or society itself ..
so is there the possibility that the joker sees the world as place full of delusional fools that need to be force to wake up and see the world as it beyond our boxes of lies?
