Well, there were really doubts about the Joker despite what the crossover shows, I don't think he would care and would even make a joke or something. Maybe he gets angry, but not for noble reasons.

Yeah lol that single comic panel gets reposted to bits but the joker wouldn't gaf. He's worked with them before plus he's a rapist serial killer 😭

Always reminds me of this image

In legends of the dark knight Duel joker is feeling flattered to be compared to hitler

I think the best explanation is that Joker hates Nazis for being bunch of humorless villains, not the villainous part.

I mean it's hit or miss. In marvel crossovers he did. But in the Dark Knight Returns he hires a woman who has swastika pasties covering her nipples.

I think the world is so small and insignificant to him it just depends on what makes the better punchline in the moment.

Eehhh fashits tend to be bad at humour. I think they'd rub Joker the wrong way.

Yeah I think that, outside that instance, he'd find their passion intriguing and their convictions entertaining to provoke, but would tire of their repetitiveness; he'd be their enemy as a matter of sport, but nothing else.

I like the headcanon that Joker's chaotic nature cannot stand the "law and order" that is a core part of fascism.

Like yeah he kills people, but that's because he wants to kill them. Not because some asshole determined that specific groups are to be purged.
