There needs to be a blu-ray box set of American Psycho, Fight Club, Scarface, Joker, and The Dark Knight. The box set can be called “YOU’RE NOT SUPPOSED TO IDOLIZE THE BAD GUY, YOU IDIOTS”.
Throw in The Matrix too, because of all the right wing dipshits who took a trans allegory written by two trans women and turned it into a symbol of their bullshit ideology.
