I think the "politics" or "societal" implications of the movie are a bit muddy, but they're not really the point. The point is that the city is brought into chaos. So really the politics can be interpreted in many different ways. but I like looking at Maya Hawke so you get points for that!

I love TDKR, it's my favourite of the trilogy.
I never cared about these political interpretations of Nolan's Batman films. I hate how everything gets politicised today. For me they are just fine entertainment and nothing more.

All of the movies in this trilogy more or less followed this pattern, didn't they? Rather than black-and-white good vs. evil stories, they featured villains who represented or championed some repressed undercurrent of society. 'Joker' follows the same pattern. At least these films have so far avoided portraying Batman as a thuggish defender of the status quo for the super-rich.

The USA was spending a little over 900 billion dollars annually on welfare programs around 2011. That number has surpassed $1 trillion over the past five years. Being poor in America pays decently compared to the rest of the world.
