    Summary

    The TikTok account appeared on a rainy Thursday evening with a simple green icon and the bio “Keep up with the Bats”. It was one of hundreds of similar accounts, which usually did nothing more than show blurry pictures of vigilantes and tell dramatic stories in voice-over. There was nothing about it that stood out.
    Except for one thing.
    Oracle.
    AKA
    The Batkids bully Batman into letting them have a TikTok account. It goes about as well as you'd expect.
