Hunter

A point that every person is only trying to control their own little world and do it by setting rules and regulations. He wants Harvey to give up being good and following the rules and spread anarchy.

The audience is Harvey Dent. On a broader scale its everyone in general. Anyone who follows the rules and abides by the law.

The appeal is pathos. The Joker wants Harvey to feel that he can't control what happens. He wants Harvey to feel angry and jaded by the others around him and that they're only worried about themselves rather than him.

Yes it is effective. The Joker is very persuasive in making the audience feel as if though abiding by the law is meaningless and we should all revolt. The Joker uses antithesis and litotes to get his point across.

It could have been stronger if the joker used more fallacies. But other than that, awesome speech.
