like embezzlement or child abuse

seems like he just flies around looking for muggers attacking old ladies
maybe he should do something about the anti-Asian hate crimes...

He doesn't stop or prevent crime, he only cleans up after something has already happened. Only the CCP has the ability to prevent crime by locking people up before any crime is committed.

and what about all those countries that have oppressive regimes? why doesn't he do anything about them

for a dude who has the powers of a literal GOD, Superman is kinda useless...

I mean, I know this is a troll topic, but the boundaries of where powered individuals can versus should intervene in conflict has been a theme explored in comics for like 100 years.

If Supes just started beating down governments and telling them how they should operate, he'd essentially be a dictator, and that's something he doesn't want to be.
