    a bit strange but I don’t really see the problem tbh. Are these references I’m not getting? I recognize joker and thanos.

      The Thanos poster has been “alpha-male”-ified and the joker is a cringe incel reference. The fact you don’t know is a good thing.

          Incels scorn society and the world for making them ugly, no powerful jawline, no American Pie sex adventures in high school, and no nice suits to wear to their minimum wage jobs. To incels, they are the forgotten scum of the earth.

          Well, The Joker is a film about an abused, poor, and lonely comedian getting his face kicked in by teenagers about a month before rising up, killing a late night tv host, and vengefully breaking Society down into chaos and misery.

          So, they just think The Joker makes them look cool. That’s really it. Every time they think about shooting up an elementary school, they also think about Arthur Fleck gunning down Murray Franklin.

          Honestly I am somewhat confused too. I think the joker movie joker is kinda incel ref because he is kinda an incel and kinda hates women (I don’t remember the movie too well)

          That seems to be the dark knight joker tho. So idk.

          And honestly dark knight joker is amazing. Like I like the movie because the joker is a great villain in this movie.

            I don’t think the joker hated women at all in Joker. As far as I remember his attitude to both genders is the same.
