You realise by quoting his post it makes what you wrote seem even more retarded than you normally seem, as it implies you are responding to his post and not the thread title, you fucking turnip brained piss pheasant.

Yet you lambast how Thor deals with depression. Ever known people with either condition...because I know which of the two is treated with more "respect"

Studies have shown that people with chronic and severe mental illnesses, are more often the victims of violent crime (and other crimes) more than the national average. Among them, “more than one quarter . . . had been victims of a violent crime in the past year, a rate more than 11 times higher than the general population.” This isn't a specific call out to the Joker, but it doesn't help the overall bias that's in our society and media. We treat the mentally ill as criminals and to a certain extent portray criminals as "crazy" or mentally ill. Some studies show that over 90% of violent acts committed by the mentally ill is to themselves. Now the US has decriminalized suicide/attempted suicide, but in some states attempted suicide is still a crime. This isn't the crime media is blaring about. They portray the mentally ill as violent to others, not to themselves. I've heard some say that Joker even expresses the point that mental illness is "catching" as he inspired others at the end of the movie. Another trope in media it that mental illness can spread among the masses. Now I wouldn't say that mental illness can't be forced upon a person through trauma, but the way the media presents it they use a sledge hammer to portray it. Not a more nuanced shaded portrayal. There are some. There are some great examples of how trauma, life experience, and being beaten down turns the pain inward and show the downward spiral mental illness manifests in. That inward spiral of pain usually ends up making the person hurt themselves not others though. While I'm not calling for a "positive" portrayal of mental illness, I don't want to glorify it, just show the actual nature of it. Don't always show the fringe, the 5-10% the act violently toward others, so much that people think it's the norm.
Edit: One study in the UK showed that over 1/3rd of the population thought Mentally Ill people were likely to be violent to others.

This would have been a good nomination for best animated movie. If only Nolan could make an action scene half as exciting as this one..
