Under the Red Hood: The Liveblog

With Matt (prose-before-hos), Wazy (toxicure) and Sammi (yours truly)

[da nah nah nah nah BATBLOGGING]

Matt: Look at his lips. They are so luscious. Ra’s al Ghul is going to kiss you now.

Wazy: Oh yes Batman, keep running towards the fire.
Matt: Corrugated steel has nothing on Batman.

Matt: I like how Batman ran there. Oh no~! Jason~! [prances about the room]

Wazy: JENSEN ACKLES
Matt: AS… NOT BATMAN

Wazy: AND BATMAN. AS UNDER THE RED HOOD
Matt: RED AS UNDER THE BATHOOD.
Wazy: The most amazing buddy cop movie you’ve ever seen!
Matt: CHRIS FARLEY AS BATMAN.

Wazy: GOOD YEAR. It was not though.

Wazy: Wait, is that a police blimp?
Sammi: Yes.
Wazy: That doesn’t strike me as very efficient

Sammi: You have a heart as red as your mask.

Wazy: Leave it to the black guy to say ‘damn’

Wazy: BUT DON’T YOU DARE FUCKING DEAL TO CHILDREN

Sammi: Nice mutton chops, bruh.
Wazy: Well Jensen Ackles was in this, so they had to give Jared a shout out, too.

Wazy: I wonder if Batman just stays up all day coming up with lines. ‘Master Bruce, please go to bed.’ ‘No! I have a line for this!’
Sammi: Yes. Yes he does.

Wazy: Why does it look like Namor? If I’m going to make a cyborg, I wouldn’t make it look like Namor.

Wazy: I JUST WANT TO HELP, WHY DON’T YOU LOVE ME??

Wazy: Why is Nightwing more prepared for this than Batman? Isn’t Batman’s superpower being super prepared?

Sammi: For a second it looked like he had four arms!
Wazy: CATCH ME BATMAN!

Wazy: Thanks Neil Patrick Harris.

Wazy: What did he kill them with?
Sammi: His mind.

Wazy: Good thing he has Batgoggles!

Wazy: Always cleaning up Batman’s messes. You can get out of the batcave, but you can never stop cleaning up the guano.

Sammi: Yeah harpoon Jay. That’s the way to do it.

Wazy: Think about the millions of dollars of damage that would do. He just let a harpoon with a hood on it detach from his batplane! It’ll kill someone!

Wazy: So wait, why did he take Joker’s name? Red Hood was the Joker, right?
Sammi: Yeah. It’s because he killed him.

Sammi: Cute Jay, real cute.

Sammi: Or he can take off on you.
Wazy: He does that. He’s Batman.

Sammi: You’re… industrial stapling it to the roof.
Wazy: Yes. Industrial stapling a helicopter to the roof. Because reasons.

Sammi: Of course you’ve seen it before. YOU TRAINED HIM.

Wazy: See, Batman never says get in the car, but at least he says move.

Sammi: Such an animu face there.
Wazy: I know. Angst, angst, angst.

Wazy: You want to be that woman when you grow up.
Sammi: Yes.

Wazy: Who are these people? Lightsaber ninjas? Tron ninjas? Lightsaber tron ninjas? SHIT IT’S THE LIGHTSABER TRON NINJA MOTORCYCLE GANG!

Matt: Wait for it… wait for it…
Sammi: Spazalicious

Matt: And guess what? He still did! Batman, you fucked up.
Wazy: Batman: worst dad.

Wazy: I’m a distraction~
Sammi: Tralalalala la~
Matt: Batman, I’m over here~

Wazy: Not my jacket! Do you know how much this cost? We’re not all made of money!

Wazy: Bathroom, bathroom, fighting in a bathroom! Batman and Robin are fighting in a bathroom!

Wazy: Sounds a lot like Supernatural if you close your eyes.

Wazy: Still sounds like Supernatural.

Wazy: Just keep killing your Robins and sticking them in lazarus pits, Batman. It’s working so well.

Do you understand how scary this picture is

god forbid a real person do real person things he wasnt just a robot who killed people jesus fucking christ

uh yeah its not like he killed and tortured six million jews or anything

Hold on just a tick. Listen, I’m Jewish, so I’m perfectly capable of understanding that what he did was just…..well, there are no words for it. But let’s not round it up to simply Jews that got killed. It was six million people that died in those camps, not just Jews. Did you know that homosexuals were sent there, too? Yeah, I’m sure you did. They had to wear special little symbols on their clothes. Do you know what it was? It was a pink triangle.

It was six million PEOPLE. 

But you let that roll over in your mind for a while and you are going to forever see this man as a monster, but that’s not what he was. He was someone who thought he was truly doing something right for his nation, no matter how shitty he was doing it. Believe me when I say that I don’t like him. I really don’t. My grandfather’s brothers died in those camps, and my grandfather escaped to Spain, then to Mexico. He was lucky.

This is not a monster holding hands with a little girl.

This is Adolf Hitler, a man, holding hands with a little girl. 

Yeah. It’s fucking scary. It really is. Do you know why?

It’s because you’re seeing that he wasn’t, in fact, a monster. You’re seeing in this picture that he was a man. He was a man, and that’s really the saddest part of it all.

As a History major who specializes in the history of early modern Europe, I’ve studied a lot of dictators in detail, not just Hitler. The number one mistake anyone could ever make in history is making the assumption that only inhuman monsters are capable of doing terrible things.

Stop dehumanizing Hitler just so you can reassure yourself that “normal” humans aren’t capable of doing bad things. Hitler liked children and dogs, he was a vegetarian and he cried like a little boy when his mother died. I’m not saying he was a good, innocent person, but when you stop attributing human characteristics to historical figures like Hitler, it’s how you overlook people just like him in real life, and it’s how people like him end up back in power.

That’s the real truth: Human Beings are scarier than any ‘monsters’ out there because we’re all born blank slates and BECOME our legacy.

This is the best post I’ve seen in a while.
