Batman Shirt Theory 

A. Description

Any person who is seen wearing a batman shirt in the public setting has a tendency to be automatically perceived as a threat by mentally ill persons, specifically those with a co-morbid diagnoses of schizophrenia, paranoid type, and psychopathy.

B. Joker-perpetrator

The joker has paranoid delusions rooted around the thought that the person wearing the batman shirt is some morally authoritative figure trying to restrict the joker's rights for the purpose of maintaining justice. The joker has a natural tendency towards attention seeking behaviors, impulsivity, and sadism.

C. The Hero-batman shirt wearer

Realistically, the hero is most likely to be a passive idealist with fantasies of being this "morally authoritative figure" or a hero inspiring change for the good. These beliefs tend to escalate to the extent of grandiose delusions, specifically during times of increased stress. Such persons experience a significant tendency towards being involved with conflict, especially with the joker and personalities alike.

D. Batman/Joker Conflict

The hero and the joker experience severe emotional and psychological restlessness, arising from their different attitudes. The hero favors fairness and stability whereas the joker prefers selfish gratification and chaos. The grandiose delusions of the hero and the paranoid delusions of the joker conflict with each other, resulting in escalating drama all influenced by a simple shirt.
Batman Shirt Theory Example:

A. The hero with the batman shirt experiences grandiose delusions. These delusions make the hero feel inspired. They make the hero feel obligated to solve conflict in hopes of promoting fairness and justice.

B. The joker sees the batman shirt and experiences paranoid delusions. These delusions make the joker feel challenged and angry. The joker feels that the hero is oppressing his or her individuality, which are predominantly antisocial/psychopathic behaviors.

C. Some may think I am delusional for making a case out of this. Point is, you can rationalize anything with a little time and imagination...
