It's right-wing propaganda in general.
Who's the hero? One of the richest men in the city.
Who are his allies? The cops.
Who are the enemies?
What happens when his enemies are defeated? They are sent to a mental hospital... a mental hospital that is falling apart and chronically underfunded. That leads to them escaping, giving Batman another excuse to go beat them up.
If Mr. Wayne is a billionaire and very influential in city politics, the way they always portray him, shouldn't he be advocating tax increases on the wealthy, and using that money to fix up the city... or at the very minimum to fix up Gotham Asylum?
No, just one cop. Right? I'm not super familiar with all versions of Batman lore but I'm pretty sure it's a typical plot point that only Commissioner Gordon likes Batman.
Commissioner Gordon is his buddy, and they work together. But, it's not like he's otherwise suspicious of the cops. Instead he thinks the problem is just a few corrupt cops but that the overall police institution is wonderful.
