Meh. Only suckers give a shit about the “generosity” of billionaires. Tax them. Tax them down to millionaire status. Why should they dictate what programs get funded? It’s never worked before… it’s not suddenly going to start now.
I mean, your own tumblr link is proof of that. After all, Gotham’s still a crime ridden shithole, isn’t it? Clearly Bruce Wayne doesn’t know what Gotham actually needs.
At the end of the day it’s all propaganda. Yes, I think the best version of propaganda about how to deal with the wealthy would do this, and show how it’s more effective. I don’t think creating media about how we should rely on billionaires to solve our problems out of their own good will is a good idea.
Malice is not implied by propaganda. What are you talking about? Propaganda is material trying to make you think a certain way. That can be good or bad.
I am convinced that someone at some point in the DC universe timeline decided to make a shithole sink just to see what happens, Gotham was the end result. Shame it somehow became multi dimensional.

So you think removing the main plot device is the way to go for Batman stories?
Not necessarily disagreeing with you in the real world. But what do you expect from fiction?

It’s funny that in Judge Dredd the city changes as the story goes on, with political change, without waiting for Dredd to change things.
Fuck me. Do you think making a comic about helping the poor and saving others in the 30’s was propaganda? Think about it.
Do you think Captain America wasn’t? All media is to some extent.
Must feel like shit to think everything ever created comes from malice. Malice is implied when you say propaganda.

If almost all propaganda is attempting to sway knowledge to the negative, then it is negative. Ipso facto
Who said most was swaying to the negative?
In most continuities, Gotham is literally supernaturally cursed, often in multiple different ways

Points for talking about real issues but also this is a pretend fantasy billionaire we’re talking about
In Turkey, our taxes are going to other billionaires anyway…
