Robert's view of one of his biggest enemies has been endorsed by.... the Communist Party USA (in a long rambling essay most about some obscure RT writer who doesn't even have a Wikipedia page):

What Robert seems not to understand is that the DCEU idea has always had support for a multiverse built in, this is because Geoff Johns was originally part of the executive team (he recreated the DC Multiverse in their comics with Infinite Crisis) and they wanted to not erase any of the successful stuff on the CW while also being able to consider "promoting" them to films. They've even already crossed over characters INTO the CW including Lucifer (from the Fox/Netflix show) and Ezra Miller's Flash. Joker was set on an alternate Earth and the upcoming The Batman trilogy that Robert already hates is "officially" set on a Earth 2. None of these decisions violates the continued existence of the DCEU.
There's no Justice League movie on the horizon and by the time Warner wants to try again they may be recasting the entire team despite the success of Wonder Woman and Aquaman, who would have been considered likely two of the weakest characters before their films did so well, and that will be the more likely time they reconsider the entire DCEU for some kind of reboot. They're not going to "reboot" it with a Snyderverse character movie next year (that also features Michael Shannon as Zod) considering two of their biggest planned films (WW3 and Aquaman 2) are Snyderverse DCEU films and the rest of their planned slate (Shazam 2 and Black Adam plus The Peacemaker on HBO Max) aren't supposed to be outside that either! Even swapping Old Batman's isn't good evidence of a "reboot" considering they're committed to three Batman movies with a completely different Young Batman set on a different Earth.
If he wants to look like an informed speculator who CALLED IT he should probably instead spend his time on the idea that The Flash might be writing the Burtonverse into the DCEU canon rather than writing everything Snyder out of it.

Funny how he assumes Snyder fans must be raging about the Batgirl news when (as noted by one of the replies) J.K. Simmons as Gordon is keeping a Snyder casting decision indicating further support for the notion (previously stated explicitly by Warner) that Warner isn't going back on the DCEU after all. Which leads into...
Robert's made-up false choice here indicates he's not actually paying attention to any of the news about The Flash movie or the DC film slate. The new Warner team (since AT&T) is pro-DCEU, it was the long gone executives who wanted to pull the plug on the whole thing BEFORE Aquaman made a billion dollars. It's been established for some time that The Flash movie was going to pull some kind of a Batman swap since Affleck wasn't going to be playing the role at all until The Flash movie wrote him back into it, but they aren't "rebooting" anything to "merge" with. Let alone creating "another new timeline" whatever that means.
