To be fair to Peter, the heroes and villains in general tend to be pretty dumb while the competent group in any arc is usually like MJ, Uncle Moley, Peter's space son, etc.

He's just really, really good at puppetering and accidentally projected his voice inside the store.

The store sells giant novelty speech balloons, Iron Fist isn't actually saying anything.

By this point, Peter can remove his mask in front of Iron Fist and poor Danny still won’t be able to connect the dots.

Why would they ever agree to unite against the police? Inter-gang warfare for turf happens mostly unopposed until after the fact, and the police help drive up prices of illegal products by holding back supply, at least in theory.

All fighting the cops on a larger scale is going to do is draw the FBI and eventually army in. Why would any crime bosses want to talk about that?

Newspaper Kingpin really IS dumb. But then again, the bosses are probably so dumb they will go for it here.
