On one hand, it is a decent cartoon. On the other hand, it's by Ted Rall, aka the testicular cancer of people.

Here is a lengthy takedown of Ted Rall and his career: https://imgur.com/a/xDjKV

I often wonder to what extent Ted Rall is a leftist. Honestly, I've thought that he's on the Left not so much because of the ideals he believes in, but because he has this image of himself as the scruffy underdog sticking it to the man. Since the Left tends to represent that kind of imagery, Rall sides with them. But he also has this obsession as being seen as the one who really gets it, so if something is held in consensus by the various groups on the Left, he has to side against it.
