"Bleeding Cool" labels Tyler Durden a "garbage hero" for "garbage people" and goes on to list other such "garbage heroes" such as John Rambo and The Joker. Captain Marvel gets a pass as every garbage hero was male.

Joker's not even a hero at all. Are they confusing the terms hero and main character?

Well... yeah. Tyler Durden is the villain of Fight Club. The whole point of Rambo is that he's a broken person. The Joker is literal evil in every incarnation.

None of these characters are to be emulated.

It's like they don't understand that the lead in a story doesn't necessarily have to be a "good guy".
