I think there's nuance here. Most of us side with Batman because we side with ideals and a desire for good. Batman represents, in a broken way, what good can be, and the cracks in his character let us relate more with him. This happens out in the real world too. Those with money, who take that money and the time/effort to help others, are less hated. Ever deepening shades and shadows, humans rarely truly operate on black and white.

Are they really though? They got that money by stealing it - over charging customers and under paying workers. Thieves who return a small fraction of what they stole to the people they took it from are not altruistic.

Yes, they are.

But...

It's a very thin line. They may be less hated, they are not less trusted.
