That depends on when you're talking about. He was very much "got mine, fuck you" when he initially gained his powers (which resulted in Uncle Ben's death) and he kept some of that mindset for quite a while afterwards. He slowly grew out of it over time, though, and was pretty much always shown to be in the wrong by the text when he acted on those ideas.
Yes, that's called a story arc. Reasonably good stories tend to have them.
That his initial view of his powers implications was flawed is central to his character. His entire moral philosophy is predicated on his feelings of guilt and regret for his selfish actions resulting in Uncle Bens death.
The fact that it's portrayed as wrong by the text is my point when I say that Spider-man isn't right wing.
