We live in a society whose narrative is completely and utterly controlled by megacorporations who create truths that are convenient for them, or their overall agendas, regardless of the actual truth. It's a disgusting world and it's only going to get worse. We're all pawns to these companies that are performing social engineering on scales we cannot even fully comprehend.
It does seem like a pretty good metaphor for what it is like. Thank you for sharing, I've never seen this comic before and I think it does a great job at communicating the message the author was trying to get across.
