    Mostly it’s a play on Disney’s The Lion King, which has a scene where the king lion explains to his son the “circle of life” that while lion eat antelope, eventually lions die, “their bodies become the grass” and the antelope eat the grass. Perhaps there’s some political commentary about a victimizer using school lessons as propaganda to make the prey class easier to subjugate for the predator class, ie force teachers to teach the correct curriculum and the antelope will thank the lion for eating it.

    Also, it’s Oglaf, so the main punchline is that the last panel somehow isn’t “Oh well, anal sex!”

      Way to pigeonhole a great comic as “almost always about sex” just because it SOMETIMES is… 🙄

        Yes, Oglaf has some good SFW comics as well as good NSFW ones. But the official list of comics does not tag NSFW ones – instead, they are NSFW by default and the exceptions are marked “safe”. It is about 80% NSFW, which is way more than “sometimes”.

        It’s been awhile since I’ve regularly read Oglaf, but my memory of it is SFW comics were the exception, rather than the rule, and after the initial plotline about the sex empress’ apprentice abruptly ended, there were a LOT of issues made where the punchline was basically “they fuck in the last panel.”
