The guys read the film as a Satanic ritual, which uses tactics including facts disorientingly blended with lies, fetishizing the traumatized mind of the brainwashing victim, and synchronicity as mind-control trigger. And all of this connects back to the figures and concepts we’re tracking in our ongoing Joker series.
