In the Injustice storyline Superman stops a drone attack, implying that in the regular universe America just like in the real world also kills tons of civilians with drone attacks but Superman lets it happen.

The DC heroes are not saviors of the planet, they're saviors of Western countries.

That’s all comic book heroes. If there was an afghan superhero who destroyed drones or a Vietnamese superhero who lurked the jungles, they would be classified as evil monsters and face the full might of Avengers and Justice League

I think the boys had a plotline about some Afghani superhero. I could be wrong though

Yeah there is a whole plot where the US freaks out because non-white countries started having super heroes also
