That's the entire subtext of Jessica Jones and Killgrave as well.

In both cases, it's not "her fault." It's just the big evil man who was so charming and irresistible that she'd dance to whatever tune he was singing.

Think about what this says about a woman's ability to make choices for herself. She has complete and total agency until a powerful man gives her vajayjay tingles and then she's effectively mind controlled.

Harley and Joker made sense in the context of her original creation. She was a bit of a ditz, and the Joker wasn't this hyper-abusive, disfigured, overtly sadistic freak. The Joker was a lunatic to be sure, and he didn't treat Harley well, but damn it, he at least did things to keep her around. Even if it was just being a manipulator, he played along with Harley unless it actually got in the way of more important things.

This doesn't happen anymore, and it's why they've sort of distanced Harley from the Joker as much as possible now. The Joker became edge and chaos incarnate with the success of TDK, and while you can write up an entirely lunatic edgelord Harley to match, even that doesn't really work as well as losing the original semi-innocence that made Harley a unique character.

Because they hit a goldmine with her popularity and thanks to video games is probably the first woman in DC normal people think of. Can't have your top chick be presented as a bad guy. "Presented" being the key word.

I know this is sort of left field but people do the same shit when it comes to women. It's always someone else's fault.

She fucks someone, it's the man's fault. Two people get drunk and the women has consensual sex, she didn't know better because alcohol.

She has sex with someone outside of her race. It's propaganda and the partner's fault.

It's standard behaviour of being infantilsed and women feed on that shit, they literally like having someone else in charge because it alleviates them of all decision making.

I know it's sexist but it's the truth. I've been with a lot of women both in and without romantic relationships. Women are terrible decision makers about roughly anything. Feminist love that shit too, they love being treated like children who need to be coddled.

It's so frustrating because you want women to be strong and independent and of course there are other women who recognise this trend but the amount of women who love just being what they are now severely outweigh them. Both in size and in numbers.

I don't mind the ditz part being an act. Harley has to have some level of competence to be noteworthy in Gotham, after all, and she WAS a psychiatrist. Neither of those things would really make sense if she was a complete buffoon. And it's a pretty common trope for the stupid comic relief to secretly be smart.

Inb4 she slept her way to her degree, but that still implies a degree of social savvy and manipulation that a full retard wouldn't have

i always figured the joker literally warped her mind. Whether during or after his therapy I dunno. He's pretty good with chemistry, y'know?
I mean harley prime will always be DCAU, and she had episodes where she got outta arkham on parole and was still a complete airhead, if not moreso than usual. Yet we also saw she was totally okay beforehand, not even suspicious that she had that position
and when she's an old woman she's a hilarious old crank

it's still pretty bad even for her that she tortured the fuck out of tim, but that only endorses the idea of it being chemical mindfuckery on her part

make a blog, i am so sick of having to read posts like this when i just want to talk about comics and cartoons. this type of shitposting wasn't even prevalent until ~2013 but now i can't browse this board without having to scroll past people complaining about women.

if this is bait it worked because i am really tired of having my browsing experience ruined by posts that are stretching to be relevant.

also i liked it better when harley was in an abusive relationship but genuinely believed there was a kernel of love in him for her that would eventually emerge. the idea that she just went with it and in a way outsmarted the joker defeats her character - the whole point was that she was somebody who was equipped to see all the signs and still blew past them for 'love.'

No, you misunderstand. It's not a matter of hate because of circumstance, it's a matter of her popularity excuse.

Batman is stupid popular and so are all associated properties. The only reason Harley is an anti-hero now is no fault of any in universe excuse but rather it's merely because people know who she is and they can't write her being an outright bad guy so they changed her alignment.

That's all there is to Quinn, she has no substance or traceable direction. She just woke up one day and decided that she's going to help the local Carnie folk or team up with other iconic super heroines. It's dastardly insulting.

Harley was an interesting lackey. She was literally made to compliment the Joker, and the way he sort of played along with her insane delusions of theirs being a romantic relationship was interesting. Any outsider could see he was just using her as a completely loyal yet expendable peon he didn't give a shit about, but she was so wrapped up in her delusion that she ignored all the obvious signs and convinced herself he loved her in spite of his abuse.

This attempt to remove her from Joker and make her competent ruins the interesting parts of her character. She worked as a sort of tragic battered spouse to a super villain, where she could disturbingly maintain some innocence but still do heinous things for him. Now when she does heinous things while acting childish, she just seems like a lolsorandomviolence xD character.

I dunno, I guess it's not a huge loss. Harley was never the most important character. But I feel like what was good about her character wasn't that she was a zany, random, competent female villain. What was good about her character is that she would probably never being doing this shit if it weren't for the Joker. She wasn't innately evil or criminally insane. Her form of insanity was just a total fixation on the idea love, and the Joker is the one who recognized that and exploited it to make her commit evil acts.

New Harley just feels like someone read her character description as "the crazy female clown villain" and based everything entirely off of that, missing the nuance that made her character at least a little interesting.

bullbullshitshit

it's explicitly spelled out that people can't resist Kilgrave's commands, complete with pseudoscientific explanation as to why. Their angst over being mind controlled stems not only from the fact he makes them do whatever he wants but also that while they're under his control they WANT to do whatever he tells them to do and once they're free they have to live with the horror of their experience and the self-doubt that comes along with your mind overruling the one small part of itself screaming "no I don't want this"

He makes you do something and you do it; he doesn't compromise your morals and then let you choose to do it

Its like people really try so hard to find this depth to her character to contrast it from how she's portrayed now when it was never there
>>
>>78764349

Yeah, even when she's off the Mr. J train in Harley and Ivy she's still a morally compromised goofy klutz who latches on to Ivy the same way she latched on to Joker
>>
>>78764465
Injustice Harley only perpetuated the feminism. I absolutely love the comic, but Harley's "I'm strong and independent" now angle never sat well with me. Felt like it was laid on pretty thick, especially since she just ends up jumping into the alternate Joker's arms.
>>
So Harley is an expert martial artist now?
>>
>>78764497
>quoting the worst Mad Max movie

>>
>>78764497
That's not the argument at all.
People liked when she had no depth and was just Joker's goofy sidekick.
Now they're trying to add depth and failing miserably, and her character is ruined.

>>78764559
What are you talking about? Even back in BTAS Harley had depth, or do you don't remember the "Harley's Holiday" episode of BTAS?
>>
>>78764497
It was part of her character, but not the whole thing, was my point.

Removing her relationship with the Joker unfortunately also removed almost everything besides that aspect because, yeah, she was never super deep.

My point wasn't that we lost a super cool or interesting character, it was that a barely-nuanced character became completely flat.
>>
>>78764576
She knew he was exactly the same. She just didn't give a shit until he tried to kill her again.
Then she snapped back to tumblrquinn. And you can bet she'd just get over it the second she started craving jokercock again.
>>
>>78764603
I found it kinda silly that in one comic it stated that superman mastered every form of martial arts but doesn't use it because he can't properly hold back when using it.

Within the context of the narrative, yes. I'm talking about the subtext. What do these powers and weaknesses say about the archetypes that these characters embody?

It says that a woman's agency stops at a man's charm.

Well there's your problem you are basing what you know on the cartoon
Mad Hatter was created by Finger and was always a pedo because "alice" is not a woman but a young girl

But I thought you weren't supposed to stick your dick in crazy!
>>
>>78763574
Maybe it's just me, but that doesn't seem to fit at all.
It doesn't come off as quirky, clever or even absurd.
Just shoehorned lines from the old Harley combined with action that seems entirely wrong for her.
>>
Umm, but there is a slight difference seeing as Kilgraves entire M.O. was using his powers to make people do his bidding. Jess wasn't herself, the entire span of the Alias series was her coming to realize she could forgive herself for what happened/occurred due to this fact... In Harley's case she was simply "playing along".

Even that's not right. Harley was -literally- just a background henchmen, Joker's number 2 that he could actually converse with so we as the audience could hear his plan. Even her voice and personality were just molded after Arleen Sorkin since Paul Dini knew her.
