I think it’s open to interpretation. Like you could take it at face value of just a funny comic about lions and gazelles.

At a deeper level though, it’s about the ones in charge placating their victims by giving them something that won’t actually help them out of their bad situation. And also maybe that knowledge without action won’t change anything. That kind of situation and lesson could be applied to so many things, like rich people telling poor people to go to college to get degrees that don’t actually help enough with pulling themselves out of poverty because in reality the game is rigged.

Stuff like that, but that’s just my interpretation.
