I heard the ending, how he's apparently raped then stabbed in the asylum.
This is the same with EVERY MALE character they write to be the villian but the audience latches onto. They need to 'kill' that character to essentially go 'you can't like him, you should hate him or we'll systematically destroy him!'
Fortunately they've done it enough times that the genera audience is wise to it and won't put up and watch it going by box office returns.
You are missing the most critical piece in between these two.
He is raped so hard he disavows the entire Joker itself. He stands up in court, undermines his own defense to say its all made up and he is in reality Arthur, a pathetic, mentally ill loser who deserves prison. Betrays all his followers so hard that his girl leaves him and then one of then stabs him for that.
Its more than just bad events happening to him. Its them demonstrating that they will brutalize you in every way possible if you dare act up like that, and that you will still die alone and pathetic for it.
This is a healthy response to being attacked.
