I found the Joker played by Heath Ledger, (God rest his soul) was interesting and disturbing. I found Joaquin Phoenix Joker in the first movie to be a sympathetic character that showed how life can affect a person's mental health in very negative ways. From what I hear you say about this latest Joaquin Joker movie, it yells at us for being voyeurs of people suffering from untreated mental health crises while society does relatively nothing meaningful about it. Reagan closed mental health institutions during his presidential administration and we are now living to see the consequences of a government that does not take care of its own. Who's the bad actor? The government is. Who is the government? We are.

"coastal journalists writing articles about how manspreading on the subway is like doing a Manifest Destiny" absolutely sent me. Amazing work, as always.
