Everyone is interpeting the comic wrong, shitty title most likely.

Lions = billionaires

Gazelle = workers

Why do the workers need education? To be taught to accept their place in the food chain. It's about propaganda, not taxes.

I like your interpretation but the title is literally the title the artist gave it. I'm not sure who is right, the artist or the observer.

Couldn’t it be that charity donations are tax deductible?

[–] Railing5132 13 points 1 year ago

Exactly right - its in the first panel; "giving back". It's addressing the scraps that whales (large donor's, sought by non-profit organizations) throw to NPO's to "give back" to their community, which they also claim on their taxes as a donation.

The artist posted it? Well lemmy play my "art is interpreted by the viewer" card then.

Otherwise, 🤷‍♂️

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

The OP is not the artist, but they linked the source site for the comic which uses the same title.

I think it's just another reference to how the rich stay rich, not exactly tied to the content of the comic but the theme.
