Batman vs The Joker: Democrats Will Double Down On Chaos To Save Their Party
Whenever I think of the behavior of the Democratic Party and the political left in general I can’t help but think of the philosophy of Batman’s nefarious arch-nemesis, The Joker. And yes, I’m saying that to understand leftists all you really need to do is read comic books.
Batman, of course, represents unflinching law, order and justice. He’s a vigilante, but a vigilante with more respect for the law than most police and politicians in his fictional realm of Gotham City. The Joker, on the other hand, represents pure chaos and the unhinged, unadulterated desire for power. Not traditional power (the means to control) but the archaic power to corrupt and destroy.
The Joker is a pure psychopath that believes his evil is a universal truth; that normal people hide behind “social constructs” to avoid admitting they want to burn down the world just like he does. He revels in the despair of calamity and the fall of moral righteousness.
I’m specifically reminded of Christopher Nolan’s film ‘Batman Begins’ in which Commissioner Gordon first warns Batman about “escalation” and reveals the calling card of the Joker:
“What about escalation? …We start carrying semi-automatics, they buy automatics. We start wearing Kevlar, they buy armor piercing rounds…And, you’re wearing a mask. Jumping off rooftops…”
In my past analysis of the political left and their habits I’ve noted many times that they seem random and unstable but they do follow some limited rules.
Rule #1 is: Leftists never admit they are wrong.
Rule #2 is: Leftists ALWAYS double down.
In other words, when they think they are losing the ability to disrupt public order and upend societal norms, they will escalate. Diplomacy is not in their nature.
The Republican Party, conservatives, moderates and even some liberals turned to Donald Trump because of his uncompromising stance on the chaos embraced by Democrats. This madness led us down a dark path of medical tyranny. It led us to woke indoctrination in public schools, race riots in American streets, trannies in the military, a stagflationary crisis and a president with a brain like cabbage.
This is not to say that Trump doesn’t have his failings; we all know he does. However,
