> What-about-ism. [/bq]

 
I don't know what that means.

> Deadpool is entirely unrealistic and not to be taken seriously or deeply at all. Deadpool could never happen in the real world. [/bq]

 
I agree, and as _*I said_* I love that movie, and I would say the same things if wannabe-moral guardians, the right/left media, or whatever were protesting, and demonizing it.
[bq]  

> John Wick is, again, unrealistic. And also, he's sympathetic, and way more sympathetic than Joker because the reason why he's killing bad guys is because _*some fucking asshole killed his dog._* [/bq]

 
Nooo not the dog!
 
Villains can be sympathetic, and you can still hate their actions though, and frankly both movies are quite different.
[bq]  

> How the hell is Harley Quinn equivalent to Joker? She's hardly a insane murderer like Joker, and she's a domestic abuse victim of his.[/bq]

 
Never said she was, do you ever read posts fully, before lashing out angrily? Also, I don't think Harley is even in the movie.
 
Aaaaand, actually Harley has killed before. Look at the "Worst things Harley Quinn has done" video on Youtube.
[bq]  

> And stop with the "Virtue Signaling" accusation. You're not fucking mind readers. It's possible for people to genuinely care about something in sincere error. You gonna claim the US Army was "virtue signaling" about the movie?[/bq]

 
No, because they were put up to the task, whether they wanted to, or not. I can kinda understand some concern, or dealing some protection in theaters, especially after the "Bane" cosplayer incident during "The Dark Knight Rises" incident, but frankly so far nothing has happened, with, or without the tripled theater security.
[bq]  

> And it wasn't hypocritical to single out 2019 Joker because there's nothing else like 2019 Joker.[/bq]

 
You don't watch alot of classic cinema, or read much literature, do you? There's stuff way more "realistic & violent" out there, or stuff that practically teaches people how to be "criminals," that doesn't get any flack, or drama.
 
"The Godfather" was a great movie, and it's main characters were realistic, violent, morally-bankrupt, yet-sympathetic criminals, as well.
[bq]  

> He's incredibly realistic. Before it finally came out, there was nothing but the previews, and some people thought it might turn out to resonate too much with the likes of incels, alt-right, "Honklers", their adjacents, and otherwise angry white males who blame everything on Society because "We Live In A Society" and decide to shoot things up a bit. And by "a bit", I mean a lot. Of people.[/bq]

 
Oy vey, why do you guys always have to bring in politics, or make it about _*"OMG it's going to make evil, straight, white, people go nuts, and kill!?"_*


 
I don't know any white, straight, or whatever people who want to literally be the Joker, and go on a crime spree. I don't know any conservative people who want to either.
 
If somebody wants to do nasty things, there's something wrong with them already. You really think banning the movie, or whatever is going to save lives?
[bq]  

> Even though Joker went full "we live in a society" at the end and the anger boiling over turned out to be motivated by the injustice of corporate elites and government corruption, not nationalistic hate against immigrants, foreigners, and minorities, nobody knew that before the movie came out. [/bq]

 
I'm sure most people didn't jump to that conclusion, (I sure the hell didn't) as nothing in the trailers, and such imply such, and so far there haven't been any "alt-right/nazi/evilwhitepeople/whatever" creating mobs, and such outside of theaters, and such.


 
The only people I see jumping to that conclusion, or taking the movie too seriously are _*people like you._*
 
Regardless what they look like, regardless what their political affiliation is, or whatever...
