You know, I couldn’t really figure out what this comic was commenting on until now. It’s rich people. The lions are rich people “educating” the masses on why they should be thankful that the lions exist.
It can be applied to any hegemonic class, really.
But yes, it’s rich people. Public schools may have originally risen out of defiance of the hegemony, at least in some notably locations, but they were quickly captured by it.
Schools over a place where the rich of the past can be aggrandised, and the rich of the present can ensure the workforce gains the basic skills to keep making them money, while also hearing about how it is right, and natural, and inevitable that they get to keep the product of your labour.
A place where your movement and thought is determined by schedules down to the minute and broken up by bells is an industrialist’s wet dream.
“WORK TIME IS NOW”
“REST WHEN THE BELL RINGS”
“LUNCH TODAY WILL BE SLOPPY JOES”
Yeah, it is a really good one. But I keep seeing people not getting the metaphor behind it. So normally I’d be like, seriously dude, you had to write that out? But in this case, yes, yes you had to and thank you for that!
Yeah, I don’t know why it took so long to click.
Yup, just like religion teaches us that poor people go to heaven and rich fucks go to hell. So don’t struggle against the latter, just do as your told and it will all work out
Not just exist. But exist because of the masses making them that wealthy from the underpaid worker to the consumer.
It’s commenting on a scene in The Lion King that explains why the lion king exists, which inadequatedly made it one of the most conservative Disney cartoon ever, only rivaled by blackface and stuff like that.
Ah, the rare lesser spotted SFW Oglaf.
Fun fact: Oglaf is actually two people. Trudy Cooper and Doug Bayne. Both Australian. Both, presumably, horny weirdos.
Ah yes, interspecies ass eating. What a time to be alive
I mean, it is Oglaf…
I thought the art style looked familiar!
ONWARDS MY CUMSPRITES!
