I think I remember it too, it was about the guy who decides to become a serial killer after being jokerfied by rancid tv

And he actually goes and kills the faces of the rancid TV instead of shooting up a mall or something. It's really curious to me that we have this film that depicted this guy doing this directly to the shit heads he saw as responsible, and yet in our modern day we have psychos who go around commiting mass murder of civilians. Not that fiction is how real life plays out, but people that do this stuff attack who they feel deserves it... Why don't they do this on the floor of the stock exchange, or the executive board of some bank? It seems to me that the perspective of believing wealthy elites are the symptom and face of societies problems doesn't engender mass homicidal acts, whereas racism and xenophobia does, and I don't get why. It can't be that everyone who has the systemic view/critique has good mental health and a materialist perspective - there's plenty of unwell, angry, leftists with nothing to lose, and yet we don't see something like this movie play out.

Don't get me wrong, I'm glad it hasn't happened, it wouldn't be helpful.

The local walmart or public school are both much easier to access and much softer targets than Rachel Maddow or whoever. Also most shooters are chuds, meaning they are physically incapable of targeting the actual causes of problems rather than convenient scapegoats.

That sure seems awfully similar to the newest joker movie.
