Heās working class, he has trouble with cops, his family is poor. Heās reactionary in the literal sense, because he takes action in response to super villains. He doesnāt ever do anything proactively to make the world more just, he just responds to people trying to make it worse. Imagine if he robbed a bank and gave it to the poor or broke in to an ICE vehicle depot and disabled all their vehicles so they couldnāt raid immigrants. By the standard construction of the genre, heād automatically become a villainā¦ And thatās the point.
Again, this is all covered in the video. If you want to challenge your understanding of the world, great. If not, Iām not really going to keep paraphrasing a video that presents these ideas more effectively than I do.

Thatās what happens in Spider-Man PS4. The mayor brings in a mercenary group to restore order to the streets, and theyāre harassing innocent people, so Spider-Man beats them up and smashes their APCs.
