and this forces him into a confrontation with Gordon and turns the entire GCPD against Batman, and now he has a villain that if he tries to fight, the whole Justice League is against him.

I want a Batman story where Batman and Jim Gordon successfully clean up the GCPD and make it the best possible police force in existence, and it still only makes Gotham worse, and it forces Batman to confront the nature of policing and who it protects and who it exploits,

want a more leftist take on Batman and his relationship with Gotham, and Absolute Batman was a great opportunity for that which felt very squandered in favor of "What if Everything Big and Manly?"

is nothing more than an idea, there is no supernatural force that makes bad things happen in Gotham, it has always been this assumption by the powerful that bad things are always gonna happen in Gotham, so they may as well benefit from them, and that ethos has rotted the city. But then I just really

I think the better way to approach it is if the curse is one assumed to be real by those with access to the levers of power in Gotham, probably maintained by the Court of Owls and whatnot. And there being a metaphysical weight to that idea shaping Gotham through history, but in the end the curse

We put this together very last-minute, BUT if you're in Seattle and feel like popping by on your lunch break tomorrow, I'll be at Phoenix Comics on Capitol Hill to explain the entire Bad Seeds event to you personally! Plus sign anything you like.

Where you missed that I had already acknowledged he advocated for disabled people elsewhere? That's the best you could do in ten minutes of searching? You're not cut out for this grift, man. Go discover something beautiful and interrogate the gap between you and it. Something other than me, that is.

Oh, if it's remembered by them then surely no prominent public figures could be doing any Holocaust revisionism? If you weren't a troll we'd have the exact same concern here, that a large enough platform is immune to fact-checking by the institutions that do remember those victims.

I'm not asking for any group to be centered over the Jewish people, I'm asking the other victims who still face persecution a century later to not be entirely forgotten. Sorry if that offends you, I suggest dbt!

And the goal of the poem was to prevent people from making his same mistake, was it not? And so by leaving out not just other targets of the Holocaust, but other targets who *continued* to face persecution after the War like queer people, it was all the easier for those harms to be denied today.

I hate to be the one to burst your bubble, but Coleridge didn't actually encounter an immortal sailor cursed to share his tale with occasional passersby. Poems, an artistic medium, are not actually 100% accurate biographical accounts of the artists' life.

because a poem designed to serve as a warning for not empathizing with other marginalized people leaving out other targets of the same persecution suggests they aren't worth protecting, and when that poem goes on to become his main legacy, that advocacy for disabled people is forgotten.
