you may want to look up whataboutism
Again, you are just throwing “whataboutism” around because you can’t logically answer the question. The answer is simply that you are not a real fan of Marvel and DC. Batman is the most famous superhero, and you have never read a Batman comic or watched a movie. He’s the most famous one, so he’s the easiest to criticize because he’s popular. Again, do you have this criticism for: Moon Knight Charles Xavier Iron Man Green Arrow Iron Fist Blue Beetle Sunspot Emma Frost If you have a problem with sidekicks, do you then have a problem with: Captain America The Flash Wonder Woman Superman Martian Manhunter Aquaman Green Arrow (who’s a straight-up Batman copycat) Etc., etc. Can you just answer that question? If not, then just say: “Yeah, I’m not a real fan. I know nothing about these characters. I’m just jumping on the bandwagon because Batman is the most famous hero, and I know nothing about Marvel and DC because I’m not a real fan.”
“you may want to look up whataboutism”
"I dont feel talking about any other superhero whos very similar to Batman who does the same shit he does so I’m just going to say “whataboutism”.
You aren’t a fan just say that.

I really don’t care if you think I’m a fan of anything. I’m saying they brought up other reasons to prefer Moon Knight over Batman and you zero-ed in on this ONE thing that was probably an after thought for them and went “these other franchises do it too so I’m the only real fan!” and then you have nothing else to bring to the discussion but ad hominems.

Again, this person is not a real fan because they don’t know what they are talking about. If we are being honest, Moon Knight is worse than Batman, because he was a mercenary who went to Egypt, killed people, and then was resurrected. Then he used the money that he made from killing innocent people and became a billionaire—not a millionaire, a billionaire. Look it up—his net worth canonically is $2.3 billion.
This person said Moon Knight was trying to atone for it. No, he didn’t. He didn’t give all his wealth away, lol. He lived in a white mansion, had a moon cave, and only used the socialite personality to gain info on the crime lords in the area. He also doesn’t have a no-kill rule—he straight-up killed criminals.
You know the “Batman only beats up poor people” argument? That’s not actually true. Well, if you believe that, then you would see Moon Knight is a billionaire who “brutally straight-up murdered every poor person he came across.” This is why I don’t engage with him or you. YOU AREN’T A REAL FAN. If you were, you would know this.

Well, at least you’re trying to have something resembling a discussion. That’s nice to see :)
