See also: Harley Quinn & Poison Ivy respectively.
Ivy sure, given what's happening with our climate I would agree.
Harley is just a straight psycho.
Depends on what version of Harley you're talking about. The original one from Batman: the Animated Series showed that she actually did have morals, she was just totally in the sway of the Joker. Batman was able to convince her to help him more than once by appealing to her good side.
Harley in the self-titled Harley Quinn cartoon definitely has a good side, but she's also a psycho. It's complicated. Unlike her love for Ivy.
Other versions, they definitely lean in on the "Joker except a woman" angle.
She's an anti-hero more often than not now, fighting villains bigger than her. From the New 52 when she started going solo and turned on Joker (or he turned on her really), to Injustice where she was a major player in the resistance, to the DCEU where she turned against ARGUS to stop Starro which wasn't even her mission. Even in the Suicide Squad game which is part of the Arkham universe and doesn't include any kind of redemption arc for her she's still only killing the Justice League when they're being controlled by Brainiac, who is probably second only to Darkseid as far as villains go. Under duress sure, but she's doing it.
