If things keep going the way they are you will soon see a Batman who will make the Superfriends version of Batman look like Rambo. He will counsel his villains to change their ways and then let them go, and he would never even attempt to use violence against them.
Yes, it would be like that scene in RoboCop something (3?) where Robo gets all these conflicting nutty inputs and he lectures little hooligans instead of arresting them. EXACTLY like that.

I watch all sorts of old stuff, as youse guys know and when you watch that and see how MUCH stuff would be shunned, social-media-banned, yadda, today, it's just horrifying. I agree that Blazing Saddles isn't the best example, but it's what I had to hand/mind. It's such a shame.
