Society always created monsters. People are born inherently good. It is what the environment around them and what society does that ends up shaping lives to go down one path or the other.
Evil isn’t born, it’s tragically created by failures of the system and for society itself failing to address what’s wrong with the world, to create a better future and a stabler world.
Arthur was a good man, broken down by parental abuse, rape, bullying, the health care system failing him, the workforce belittling him and grinding him to dust as they care little for people with disabilities or mental illness and finally the realisation that nobody cares about him at all, due to the failures of various systems he hasn’t been able to ever fit into society and as such is destined to spiral into a path of inevitable homelessness, abandonment and lovelessness. An existence of which leads to only two things, suicide or embracing your demons and becoming a monster.
He ended becoming a monster rather than kill himself, which brought him his own peace and happiness at the expense of his very humanity and the good human being that existed before, who wanted to bring joy to the world, who so desperately just wanted to be embraced and loved and accepted.
Now he’s gone, he’s dead, only the Joker remains and the Joker is embraced by those who are just as broken and fallen down the path of evil.
The saddest part of all is it all could’ve been avoided if society confronted its own demons and embraced change. Even now, this film is demonised for holding various systems accountable for breaking down and destroying people’s lives, that’s why its “dangerous.” In this, Joker has managed to expose the same thing it’s rallying against, the complacency and ignorance of people who care little for reality and what’s happening to those they think are “beneath them.” They consider it dangerous to address mental health, class divide, hate culture, societal inequity, etc.
They’re the real joke.

As soon as the boyfriend of his mother laid his hands on this child, the Joker was born.
The Joker was always there, trying to impress people, trying to give people a laugh. Something Arthur never experienced in his whole life, you know, the feeling that someone cared. But the people didn't took notice of him and when they did, they made fun of him.
Arthur was the lowest low of society. He cared for his mother, didn't eat because he had no money, had never experienced real love, was always alone and had a shitty job, while he took care of his sick mother.
For Arthur this was just life, but the Joker inside of him had enough.
As soon as he got the gun and accidentally used it on the kids in the train, he felt powerful. Just in a matter of seconds, people who never noticed him, heard him. He learned that with fear and violence, something he had experienced his whole life and something that was so absurd normal for him, he could control others.
For him it wasn't crazy, it was just how it always was from the beginning on.
Like Carter Burke said: "Every villain is the hero of his own story." And the Joker was the hero for Arthur, someone who finally brought justice into his dark world, someone who finally could hear the music.

This Bathroom scene is one of the most darkly poetic and surreal scenes ever made, yet one of the most beautiful too. It's a miracle.
@TheNestor374
this part really is amazing seeing dance the music is just something magical this is what art is
@ADHDDistracts
i liked the masonic references with the black and white tiles
@NycCubsns1280
The best scene of the movie!
@aw2390
The Heavy Hitter can you explain
@ADHDDistracts
Virgil Abloh He was wearing black and white patterned clothes while dancing in a black and white tiled bathroom after his transformation into the joker. If that’s not a free mason reference then I don’t know what is
@Mugzzzz
As soon as this music played, the whole cinema had fallen into a state of absolute silence. The justice that was served at Arthur’s breaking point shocked and fully immersed the audience. They sat watching Arthur’s insanity unfold, knowing that it’s only going to get darker.

When I saw this movie in IMAX, not a single person made a noise. No one ate popcorn, no one laughed, no one did anything. It was so silent in the theater, you could hear a pin drop. Nobody clapped either. It was absolute silence from beginning to end.
@SPIDERGHOST99
@Logan Espinor idk where you guys are going to the cinema, aren't people SUPPOSED to be quiet the whole time lol
@loganespinor5428
@SPIDERGHOST99 You would think so, but when I saw the movie again, people laughed at inappropriate times, and clapped when they shouldn't be. But it depends.
