Comparison LOGAN MIERZWA
Batman Believes
in justice for the people of
Gotham Will
do anything for the people he loves
Batman
subscribes to Ideal Utilitarianism
because he tries to do the most good with the actions he commits.
For
example when he tapped into
everyone's phones to use sonar, he was doing it for the good of the people, not because he was nosey.
Harvey Dent/Two Face
I think that Harvey was at first
like Batman because he did whatever he needed to to clean up the streets of Gotham, but then he learned life was very unfair and he changed.
Two Face subcribes to Moral
Nihilism in my eyes because he thinks there isnt any way to determine right or wrong, just chance.
The Joker
The Joker is an egoist because he does
things for himself. The Joker really only wants Gotham to be in chaos, and thats what his actions strive to do.
Whether it be turning Harvey Dent against
Gotham, attempting to kill Commissioner Gordon, or questioning the civilians vs prisoners morals, they all were to try and create chaos, which is all the Joker wants.
