Boy, I had a weird feeling watching Joker. I really want you to watch it so we can really unpack it.

But one weird, I always have these weird thoughts that are like super contrary to what I traditionally think. And one of them was, so this is set in the 70s in New York. And he is, you know, he's like any one of these shooters or any number of people we now know we have a ton of in this society.
