Batwheels softly handing a VERY serious and VERY misinterprented topic: Children are not evil

Buffs BFF will always remain one of my favourite batwheels episodes...

Usually i dont think its good when theres an episode where one of the heroes befriends a villain this early on in the show itself, but i like this. It again shows the fact that the batwheels are not just new to this world but they are naive kids

Buff is the most emotionally intelligent member of the Batwheels. His talk to the batwheels about how Snowy is not a bad person speaks VOLUMES about Buffs understanding of others. He is setting one of the first things he learned aside (legion of zoom = bad) and he immediatly sees that its wrong to judge someone off a first impression, especially if that someone is a literal CHILD.

Something people really need to understand is that children are never evil. They are influenced, taught the wrong things, or theyre naive and young. I hate it when people hate on characters for being annoying when theyre literally kids.

"Its okay Buff, i'll just leave-"

"No! Its not okay!"

GO BUFF?!??!!!?????!!??!?

I think its so incredible that despite the amount of time Buff has spent being sentient atp in the show, he not only immediatly knew to help someone, but he was also mature enough to know that Snowy isnt Mr Freeze and has a different mind then his driver. Buff knows he is different then his driver, so he knows Snowy can be different aswell. That is an insane mindset for a kid who literally has been in the outside world for 2 days.

Wich brings me to what this episode and the show itself brings over. Something EVERYONE SHOULD KNOW:

Children are not evil.

I love the way this episode showed that its not the kids that are the problem, its the adults. In this case, Snowy is obviously not the problem, its his driver, Mr Freeze is bad, Snowy is not. Children are not their parents. They don't know any better and even if they do, they can't do anything about it. Theyre children.

The Legion of Zoom vehicles don't physically harm the Batwheels because they don't have evil intentions.

Troughout the show the villains dont cause a lot of harm as it is but the cars do not hurt each other almost at all. The Batwheels and the Zoomers are kids. They dont intend actual harm against each other. In Redbirds Bogus Beach Day, when Batman and Robin were off chasing Joker, Bam, Redbird and Prank ended up playing on the beach and dock, chasing each other around and actually having fun with each other. Prank is not evil, he just wants to have fun. Half of the time hes on screen hes just messing around. He just doesnt realize the impact of his actions and the problems it might cause later. You know. Like a CHILD!!

Another example of this is Quizz. One time he did something with the clocks so all over the city there were wrong times shown, and he fooled the batwheels with a riddle. No one got hurt. He did cause distress. But. No one got hurt. Quizz is a child. He has seen the adults around him cause harm wich he obviously got influenced by, A, and B, he's doing it because he sees it as a joke. He doesnt have an intent of actual harm, he just thinks its funny to see people think theyre 3 hours late for work while theyre actually 6 hours early. Its not harmful, its just annoying.

In the end of the episode when Snowy starts resisting the freeze ray to not shoot Buff... that was some real shit right there. Im gonna be honest, when watching this episode i did not expect the episode to show Snowy's struggle to fight his driver the way it did. Like Snowy was clearly getting stressed and fighting steering wheel control was VISIBLY hard for him to do. Buff also trusts him to not freeze him. He even says: "Snowy is my friend. I know he wont hurt me."

This scene again proves my point. Mr Freeze intends harm, Snowy doesnt. Snowy does not want to freeze anyone. Even during the scene where Mr Freeze is freezing up the Batwheels using Snowys freeze ray you can just see Snowy not liking it at all and actually trying to deactivate the freeze ray. And when Buff eventually helped him out Snowy was clearly relieved and happy.

Anyway that was my small little tea sitdown with anyone who comes across this and read to this point.
