Yeah I get it when it comes to addressing the question of how it would work irl. But like I said elsewhere, the question of “how would the real world react to Batman” has to be taken from the pov of a Batman who is similar in the majority of ways to the ficitonal one, which means bringing over most of the characters that influence him as well. Which kind of fundementally changes the question. A real world Batman wouldn’t have much legitimate good to do lol. Most crime he could fight would not be something that he ought to fight. So unless he went against police derpartments (which to be fair, batman has done in fiction), there wouldnt be much space for a “Good Batman”.
But bring over Gotham as a whole and everything important about it? there’s a lot more nuance there.
and its fine lol. I really should have expected it when I made this thread.
If the supervillians are real as well, most likely there’s going to be a supervillian that Republicans really love (I guess the Penguin?). Their opinion on Batman would hover around being neutral, perhaps slightly in favor until Batman beats the shit out of their favorite supervillian. After that, they’ll accuse Batman of having “gone woke” and turn on him.
The whole question is kinda moot for the reason Chris Sims pointed out years ago; Batman doesn’t exist in our world, he exists in one in which Gotham city is constantly threatened by goofy gimmicks and supernatural threats. The logic of the universe is such that a guy in a Bat costume is necessary to stop the Joker etc
