I'm not sure "toughing it out" is a sensible approach to recessions when we do know that sensible Keynesian spending, on the right things, works. Hmmmm .... that sounds rather like "that wasn't proper socialism, communism...." etc.

Except that we have many instances of it working fine. Maybe too well in some cases, like the US covid-related stimuli. But it clearly works.

Anyway, it's clear that the far left are utterly and misogynistically terrified by their predicted Liz Truss success.

Terrified of a girl educated in a state school.

Hard to imagine that level of emotion regarding Truss, whatever your opinion.
Indifference is as far as I get.

I see that Baloo is still totally, pathetically, hung-up on education as a signifier of all kinds of other things. He actually wants to be a peasant serf able to look up to feudal overlords who'll abuse him (and not in a good way).

It's very much lacking in imagination. It could have stopped at the first panel and been a bit of a quirky although not very funny cartoon. The rest doesn't add anything.

Unfunny, mindless shite. And poor graphics.

So, what's it about? I can't see the point. Is it some comment on the human condition?

I’m not defending the cartoon. It’s rubbish. It’s not telling us something we don’t already know.
