"you can't just ignore massive narratively consequential chunks of a characters' story that you don't like or disagree with" actually i can. and i do. and it's very easy ^_^

#this is abt harley and joker's entire relationship/dynamic btw #i will never forgive dc for making him a domestic abuser #i'm not a violent person generally but unironically i would give my life savings to fistfight every writer/creator who's been complicit in #that dynamic ^_^ i'm so mad i'm so fuckcing mad #i can excuse child murder / terrorism / assorted mass murder but i draw the line at hitting your partner #(joking. it has nothing to do with my mortality it's literally just a cptsd trigger for me lmfao) #but also the entire thing (heavily queer-coded character acting like a misogynistic wifebeater) is genuinely wildly homophobic and that Also #makes me IMMENSELY uncomfortable #the concept in general is. questionable at best but the way dc writers handled it in particular. fucking gross #this post also applies to bruce being physically abusive to his kids #no i don't consider him a good father but He Would Not Fucking Do That #more importantly ALFRED would not LET him do that #i am so full of rage and malice and resentment #“noooo you can't do that you're removing important bits of their characterization” i do not fucking CARE. go cry harder about it #anyway this isn't in response to anything i'm just in a mood (off my meds)
