His sense of right and wrong is not one that has been shaped by society, that has learned to compromise and tolerate or has become less pure, but rather it is the purest form of a human's pursuit of goodness.
Nor can anyone accuse him of being high-flown, because he practices what he preaches, adhering to the belief that every bit counts, every person helped is a victory, regardless of whether there is any hope for this place. Even if he can only make one person's life a little bit better, his effort is still meaningful.
He is not even stingy in expending ten times the energy for a 0.01 improvement, as long as he thinks it can bring about change, he will try his hardest to make it happen. He is an unimpeachable doer.
Within the crazy, chaotic minds of the Gothamites he's helped, and within their inspired and keen philosophical debates, they could not find a single word to taint the soul of such a person.
That's not even the crazy part, the crazy part is even the Joker failed to do so.
If Superman would lift up two threatened ships to save everyone on board simply because he is righteous and powerful, and does not care about the opinions of the people inside, as long as they are safe, he would do it.
In some sense, he is like the sheepdog that roams the outskirts of the herd, so powerful that the history of the wolves cannot harm him, thereby effectively protecting the herd.
But Spider Man, he cannot lift two boats at once, but he would definitely show up on the exploding boat in the last second before the explosion, just to save more people after the disaster.
He is the kindest, most steadfast leader among the sheep, never leaving the herd, always ready to sacrifice.
Such a person can most deeply touch Oswald Cobblepot, for once he was the weakest lamb in the flock.
Throughout his life, he had never encountered any sheepdogs capable of averting disasters, the sheep that wander off in search of hope never return, and the awakened ones with lofty ambitions in the flock never paid him any attention.
Nobody ever stood with the Penguin Man.
Being part of a vulnerable group inflicted severe wounds on the Penguin Man, whereas Spider Man is a hero who is determined to protect the vulnerable, and he really does, and he succeeds.
These are the unique attributes of the two characters that can be utilized in the current events, and next we will analyze the unique personality attributes of the Penguin Man.
To analyze a personality attribute, one only needs to ask one question, why is the Penguin Man, the Penguin Man?
In Penguin Man's childhood, when people made fun of him, saying he looked like a short, fat penguin, that his ugly, sinister eagle hook nose was like a penguin's beak.
But even if Penguin Man were mad, he would not desire to press those meaningless words concocted by those bluffing fools onto his own head.
The Penguin Man likes penguins, just like Batman likes bats, their code names have a subtle relationship because both penguins and bats are social animals.
Their choice of these animals is not by chance, although Batman believes bats bring fear to people, he cannot deny the beauty and greatness he saw in the communal attribute of flocking bats.
The societies of social animals are like signal amplifiers, exaggerating their good and evil to a point of dramatic beauty, and those who can appreciate such beauty are often those who are not accepted by their existing communal societies.
Oswald Cobblepot is such a man, and so is Bruce Wayne.
So they fantasize about themselves in another kind of communal society, where they hold a much more important position, receive the care and love of different companions, and enjoy the warmth of a truly communal society.
However, there are differences between Batman and Penguin Man. Batman sees the amplified wickedness of social animals. A flock of bats often brings greater fear to people than a single bat, so when choosing to spread fear, he gives himself the codename "Bat".
But humans are more inclined to analyze the social groups and family relationships of penguins, especially their family relationships. In common knowledge, penguins have one of the most stable family relationships in the animal kingdom.
Most importantly, their group relations are not so much embodied in the distinct classes and strict hierarchical relationships prevalent among other social animals, but more in mutual aid and support, particularly the noble trait of helping the weak in the group.
Many have seen in nature documentaries, penguins huddling together for warmth, placing the chicks in the middle, fathers and mothers taking turns incubating the egg, and at times, even entrusting their eggs to others.
The little penguins attend nurseries managed by adult penguins who may not be their biological parents, but merely entrusted with childcare by the group.
Although not every aspect of penguin society embodies these beautiful traits, the information that people can accept at certain stages of life is limited. In the common sense of most people, including Oswald Cobblepot, penguins are such animals.
When Penguin Man chose penguin, it wasn't out of acceptance for the derogatory nickname his hecklers gave him, nor out of pain, gloom, or self-mocking despair.
He saw society's good side magnified by the penguin community: their kindness. He yearned for this warmth and kindness, imagining himself as a cherished chick surrounded by a penguin community.
The less one has, the more one wants; the more one lacks, the more they need fantasies to fill the void.
Batman received much familial love from his parents, so he craves the harsher and more brutal side of social society.
Penguin Man never received any love from his family, so he craves the warmer and kinder side of society.
This warmth is most evident in the protection of vulnerable groups.
Without a doubt, ordinary people threatened by criminals are vulnerable in society. Spider Man chose to firmly stand with them, and his actions revealed to Penguin Man the operating mode of the perfect society he fantasized about.
Therefore, he didn't accept Spider Man, but rather, he embraced the hero of his childhood fantasy.
But Penguin Man also has a twisted side. The trauma from his vulnerable group drove him to desperately climb upwards; as long as he became strong, he wouldn't be bullied.
Yet the pursuit of transcendence is endless. New status and environments bring new dangers. Every time he climbed another rung, he found that what he possessed as a vulnerable group in this new tier was still insufficient.
Years of climbing cultivated an instinct to seek safety by climbing further when facing new environmental stimuli and losing safety.
Even though he had an ideal society in mind, he would never stop and construct this society, as he felt he couldn't afford to. He felt perpetually unsafe.
All of Penguin Man's actions stem from the need to escape the role of a vulnerable group and to gain a sense of security from standing on a stronger platform. This is Penguin Man's primary unchangeable personality trait and the fundamental logic of his behavior.
Peter even started to think he's not just wildly guessing.
Spellbound, Peter continued scrolling down, only to find that there was nothing else left.
Peter, utterly shocked, widened his eyes. No matter how he prayed, the Black Sun remained motionless.
Peter was utterly distressed.
At this point, he realized that he could finally leave. Thus, he hurriedly returned to the real world, pressed on his earphone, and said to Bruce on the other end:
"Penguin Man lacks a sense of security, what can I do to provide him that sense?"
"...Excuse me?"
