BANE?

Reading Andrew Anglin's "A Normie's Guide to the Alt Right" for the first time.

When discussing meme mascots, he mentions Bane as a secondary mascot for the Alt Right, after Pepe. He writes:

>the villain Bane in many ways embodying the Jewish nightmare of fascism. The Alt-Right has adopted this character as a secondary mascot because of his character as a strongman, taking down an oppressive liberal-democratic system and attempting to establish an authoritarian-populist social order.

I don't think I saw Bane the same way. It seems more likely that Bane was a villainisation of just revolutionary anarchists in general, some of his agendas mirroring the Occupy Wall Street movement in many ways. You could definitely see Bane as a radical left-wing villain and Batman as the conservative authoritarian reactionary.

I know it doesn't matter because ultimately it's a Sup Forums meme that managed to tap into meme magic, but let's ask ourselves- what is Bane? A Big Antifa Guy or a Right Wing Death Squad Leader For You?

To me bane is neither left-wing nor right-wing, he's simply the man of the people, honestly the fact that Andrew Anglin sees him as such is just moe proof to me that genuine stormfags can't meme.

Does it really matter? I think he's a bit like Pepe, he's both a caricature of Hitler and Lenin. His populism could be steered either way.

But seeing as being ''conservative'' would now mean being a neoliberal globalist to maintain the status quo, is Batman really reactionary?

>attempting to establish an authoritarian-populist social order

but thats not at all what bane did
bane literally implemented complete anarchy and destroyed any semblance of social order

I bet you're a big guy.

>To me bane is neither left-wing nor right-wing, he's simply the man of the people

Pretty much.

I think he looks fuckin retarded.. just because he's bald I think is why he has been adopted. Bane, is disorganized, and to be honest, fuck batman altogether. Superman is the new mascot.

for fucks sake

The fuck was that guy on the right planning on loading those ack ack-worthy rounds on his vest into?

Anything that scares Jews is OK in my book.

I think Anglin was just shitposting

bane is not a villain. in the context of the movie and when the movie came out, he's definitely not

he's a mirroring of batman who, instead of saving gotham from its villainy, wants to destroy the constructs that prevent him from realizing his maximum potential

bane is an icon for either the far left or far right. it makes no difference. we both envision ourselves in the same role, albeit with different victims

The main reason he's been adopted is because there's a massive overlap between Sup Forums and Sup Forums posters

Meanwhile Batman is a multimillionaire who dresses up in a costume in his spare time and beats the shit out of the poor and the mentally ill. Who's the real bad guy?

>It seems more likely that Bane was a villainisation of just revolutionary anarchists in general,
Specifically the socialist""""""anarchist""""""" left user.

bane is the ideal for the bottom left radicals

not the pussified genderbenders but the 20century anarchists

he even managed to secure his commune from outside military invasion - something where even Mahno failed

I don't think any of you, or Andrew Algin for that matter actually understood Bane's role in movie.

His whole populist movement and takeover was a sham. Bane deliberately exploited his own men and populist rhetoric to create an unsustainable outburst of violence that would end in the destruction of Gotham. But that wasn't even his plan. It was Miranda/Talia's, in which Bane was merely the willing actor who carried it out. Her reasoning in the film was slightly unclear; it was possibly all just for revenge against Batman for killing her father.

Pffff for you.

Batman is the fascist.

>knowing this much about a DC propaganda magazine

Leave your basememt today!

Is Baneposting in honour of Bane or CIA?

>not the pussified genderbenders but the 20century anarchists
>"""""Anarchist"""""
Bane in typical leftist fashion was fully willing to murder any and all who went against his vision using a military force.

He's no different than Lenin as are all "anarchist" leftist movements who have always done at some scale purges and the forceful violent removal of "dissenters" which typically just means people who don't give up their private property

The conversation is about the meme, not the plot of batman you cunt.

Something I wish people would stop talking about since the place is infested with fucking shills and retards.

>Lose lips sink ships

baneposting is ridiculing a single dumb scene from Nolans movie combined with spamminig shit just for the sake of it.
Looking for political message in it is just silly.

This. Batman is a one-man Right-Wing Safety Squad desu

>he's simply the man of the people
and anything beyond this is just projection

I actually really fucking hope you're shilling your book. because otherwise this is horrible tier b8.

Bane represents Chaos, CIA represents Order. The one who Crashes and the one who's in Charge here.

There is equilibrium.

>batman is a billionare industrialist
>league of shadows, joker and bane want to, one way or the other, free the people of Gotham from the oppression of the city's elite
>batman works tirelessly to ensure the people remain slaves to Babylon, err Gotham

just look at that gigantic NSA spying machine Batman cooked up to find the Joker at the end of TDK.

retard you need to know the plot to understand the character properly

knowing the character lets you assess the meme as OP asks of us

It's not about what Bane is in the movie, but how he is seen by the audience, specifically baneposters. Within the the context of the memes, Bane is an unstoppable juggernaut who gleefully tramples lesser beings such as Bill Wilson (CIA). The relationship between the two is somewhat like that of Pepe and Wojak, and to that end, destructive forces of change are usually associated with Bane.

Bane is the evil white man.
That's Anglin's point.
Btw anglin totally trolled faggiepie out of money.
That swedish freak nearly lost his YouTube channel.
The media really thinks that fag is a Nazi.

You're the one not understanding here. Sup Forums's Bane is a completely different character from the one in the movie.

nah, you dont get it

Lenin would build a strong power structure

Bane let people free of his power, he only secured the bomb

Maskkkkkkt man guy uses a 50 bmg to cover their escape when gordon follows them into the sewers. Those 50 bmgs on his vest are used to top off his mag when hes on the fire escape.

he opened the jails, thats like a shitlib dream

>Bill Wilson (CIA)
CIA guy has a name ? wew

you cant just be wrong and stupid and then call it shitposting and be forgiven

But Anglin is not talking about Sup Forums's version of Bane.

Unless your suggesting Sup Forums is actually the strongman vanguard of a populist social order taking down liberal democracy.

Maybe they fit that in between filming for Brazzers.

'Twas merely a ruse my good man

Bane is hispanic. Anglin is a racist for insulting him

from my point of view, batman is evil!!

TELL ME ABOUT ANGLIN
WHY DOES HE REFERENCE INTERNET MEMES IN A BOOK

Bane, if anything, represents the likes of Soros. Using his vast resources to whip Western society/Gotham into a revolutionary frenzy in order to hasten and distract from its ultimate demise by progress/a big nuclear bomb

Bane was not a man of the people

All of his populist rhetoric was a way to grab power and to pull the wool over everyone eyes before he nuked their dumb asses

Nonsense. As so eloquently points out, it's Bruce Wayne who uses his money and power to steer events. Bane is a hero of the people.

So according to this thread and Anglin, Bane is:

>authoritarian
>anarchist
>fascist
>communist
>populist
>con artist/sham
>man of the people
>globalist
>anti-status quo
>terrorist
>strongman
>acting figurehead
>meme

Is he /ourguy/ then?

NOOOOOOOBODY fucking cares, Cassandra. Literally no one is fucking using Bane as a "meme mascot" or whatever autistic shit you're trying to say. Stop trying to make Bane as an alt right meme habben; it's not going to habben, faggot.

>baneposting is 101 shitposting culture
>Sup Forums shitposting leaks everywhere.

No more than that, anything else is fiction

Bane isn't a hero of the people when he expects everyone to die. He dies to remove the cancer that is Gotham

Yes, and he's also a pretty big guy.

...

Chemotherapy kills many healthy cells too. Sometimes sacrifices need to be made.

That's subjective.

For you.

Bane was just peddling the people a line to keep them amused and keep his enemies off his back while he plotted their deaths. Bane isn't about freeing anyone, he just tells people he is so they won't realise he's going to blow them up.

Perhaps, but what about Batman? He uses his money and power to maintain the status quo. Besides, if chaos is Bane's motivation, wouldn't that make him an avatar of Kek?

The status quo in Gotham is criminality. Batman is enforcing his will on his environment. He doesn't serve any agenda except to fight crime.
