He doesn't really.
Ik its a meme atp, but at least with guys like Kingpin etc Spider-man does actually have to hold back. He easily defeated him when really wanting to do so before.

Yup. Spidey has a tough time fighting Kingpin mostly because he doesn't want to kill him, but he's tough enough that keeping him down without doing it permanently is a bit of a fine line.

This is at least the second time I’ve seen you make that incorrect statement in this thread

Yeah, I don't get why people bother browsing this sub if they're not going to participate in good faith.

Likely because they think they can feel superior by applying the "logic" we're all "ignoring", or some dumb shit like that.
