I think it's awesome that different Batman stories can examine different versions of Bruce and his position as a billionaire - it allows different aspects of the world to be interrogated: criminals sometimes doing crime because they know of no other way to survive in a capitalist hellscape, the apathies of billionaires to the evils of their financiers, Batman's obsession with order leading him to militarise the streets of the city he loves, etc.

    So, batman's fascist arc? on the other hand, Libertarians have always been one step from fascism ironically
