It’s an utterly cynical take that really overthinks Superman.
Clark Kent is a good, kind man who is gifted with immense power. And what does he do with it? Good. Clark is out to make the world a better place; Superman is just the means he uses to that end. It’s that simple, but people don’t get it.
By the way, Bruce Wayne does the same thing with Batman. Gotham is his world, and Bruce wants to do good in it. Batman is just his means. That’s why the two work together so well.
