I see. I see the comic as pointing the interesting problem that arises from automation today.

A tool like automation should be a boon to humanity and therefore a boon to all individuals. Instead, in the current reality, automation is causing a lot of problems because our system wasn't designed for the level of automation we have today.

I think the comic is stating that the system should work for us, not the other way around. You seem to agree with this point and I do as well.

I don't see the comic prescribing any order of changing policy to arrive at the "correct" panel. I also don't see any specific anti-work themes.

There is an assumption that more time to do what you want is better than more time at a job, but I don't see this as anti-work as I think most people would agree with it.
