It was more the issue with the Bat sonar that I was thinking of...

What the realization that while total surveillance can be useful in the most extreme of emergencies, that even then it was a temptation that no man should have and ought to be shut down? That is the message the film put out. No justifying ongoing surveillance by claiming the emergency still was ongoing, no trying to leverage it into a "trust me I won't abuse it", Bruce put it in the hands of someone else and that someone shut it down hard. The message was that freedom and privacy is something no one should be expected to give up and anyone who advocated otherwise was mentally unstable.

That might have been the intention but combine it with the subsequent film and it doesn't read to me that way at all

instead, it sounds like an "ends justify the means scenario"

especially since the next film portrays all of Gotham as completely incompetent without Batman

It's an INCREDIBLY paternalistic story

Oh, well, I didn't bother with the third movie. I'd kinda grown out of my grimdark phase when it rolled around.

If that's your takeaway then it sounds more left leaning than republican. They actually do the things the right gets blamed for.

Assuming you mean that they do the authoritarian paternalistic things [that the right gets blamed for] - that doesn't make it leftist at all, because it portrays those authoritarian things as basically correct and justified.
