"Joker: A Critique of Society's Failures"

The film "Joker" criticizes today's society by telling the story of Arthur Fleck, a victim of an insensitive and corrupt society. Some examples shown in the film that reflect this criticism are the denial of resources to the disabled, workplace abuse, public humiliation, and systematic corruption. These events portray real social problems like the mistreatment of people with mental or physical conditions. One scene shows Arthur having a fit of laughter on the subway after being marginalized, and another shows a TV host humiliating Arthur's comedy skills, demonstrating how public humiliation can lead to major issues. Overall, the film presents an existing reality of the great societal problems that continue to affect many worldwide, from marginalization to illegal acts.
