Even though they originally came over to catch their own villains and bring back some civilians, the truth of this story is that in a world where truth was twisted and institutions say that justice is what we say it is, a team of true heroes came out to fix this world and show that heroism can never be smothered.
Even though a bit uneasy about his own laser vision, Conner talks Ryan through how to turn it off, showing that he can't hurt him, and that he'll manage it.
Likewise, while Annie/Starlight is later confronted by her own shortcomings by Poison Ivy, other heroes such as Wonder Girl observe that Annie is one of the few people in Earth 7 who might have actually made it as a hero on Earth 1 if given the chance.
Though Ashley is filled with hysteria and fear about the League starting to cut away Vought's assets, her counterpart Catherine Colbert is still highly empathetic over how this kind of work as a superhero publicist isn't easy. But that we still have to do right by others and hold ourselves accountable.
She even gives Ashley a therapist recommendation as a way to get around her more... self-harming tendencies under stress.
Becca and Ryan both get a few breaks thanks to the Justice League.

The Super-Family manages to arrange a reunion for the two in the Fortress of Solitude.
As much as they wanted to turn their Earth against Superman, even Stormfront's own internet team couldn't stomach attacking the Big Blue Boy Scout after hearing all his genuine stories of talking teens out of suicide and saving lives.
In the middle of a chapter where most of the boys are getting their origin stories torn down and deconstructed, we have Black Canary's therapy session with Annie. Unlike the others, we see how different a therapist with good intentions is for a hurting young woman who really needed it.
While at first frosty due to how much he reminds her of Homelander, Superman finds ways to show Annie that he's nothing like the bully Homelander is. That he can see in her the heart of a true hero, and in a world of despots and hellscapes, what's going on on Earth 7 is still manageable. That there's still goodness and hope buried under the mess.
Then Superman mentions to Annie that despite her origins, she didn't get into the hero game for the fame and attention, but because she is like them: wanting to help for its own sake. And that should never be forgotten. Finally breaking all the old hesitations, and making Annie comfortable enough to hug the Man of Steel in gratitude for reminding her of the best within herself.
Annie and Hughie's reunion. After being forced apart due to the Boys being drafted into the Suicide Squad and Annie being taken to the Watchtower, the Justice League lets the two lovebirds reunite in the aftermath of the V24 incident. Their conversation and subsequent night together makes it clear just how much Annie and Hughie missed each other.
It's confirmed that the League's allies managed to grab Ryan from Vought during the Seven's battle with the Legion of Doom and subsequently reunite him with Becca full time and outside of Homelander's grasp. The fact that Ryan is under the care of his mother again has clearly done wonders for Ryan's mental health.
Even sweeter? Said allies were Robin (Damian Wayne) and Superboy (Jon Kent). The former knows what it's like to be raised by an abusive parent who sees you as more of a tool, and the latter knows the struggles of being a kid with incredible powers. It's nice to know that Ryan is making friends with people who can understand what he's going through. By the last chapter he already seems like a happier kid.
Wonder Woman risking her life to save Maeve from Circe's influence. She succeeds, and the first thing Maeve does when she's freed is apologize to Wonder Woman. She's told that, so long as she confesses to everything she and Homelander did on Flight 37, then the Justice League will help her. Maeve agrees.
In a twisted way, Flash's reaction to seeing A-Train's death. Despite A-Train being one of the speedsters most opposed to the Flash, Flash never saw him as an enemy, nor was he trying to show him up. Whenever they interacted Flash was polite to him, and was the one to take him to the hospital when he went into cardiac arrest. Flash is as horrified as A-Train's family when Zoom brutally kills him.
Even after all the disgust at his lack of agency or decency, Aquaman takes the time to retrieve Kevin's corpse since he might have loved ones who want it.
