I have read all 4

The comments above are what I think.

Sorry, don't like it.

It's women who are pushed out of the workforce when things get bad

Read all four cartoons.

The ‘woman’ boss is a TW. It’s a thinly veiled allusion to a certain credit Suisse employee who identifies half the week as a chap and half as a woman

You need to read the series of cartoons, there are four, for it to make sense.

Oh I see

The statement that all white men get sacked in a downturn is bollocks
It's women who are pushed out of the workforce when things get bad

I don't like it sorry

It's a shame it's not funny.

Nothing there’s 4 strips in total to read in the story, click ‘next strip’.

The man isn't trans. No one can question it though can they, least of all the trans person sacking him.

FlyingOink · 10/02/2019 13:16

Did you read all the cartoons in order?

NothingOnTellyAgain · 10/02/2019 13:12

It's a really weird cartoon and I don't really get it

The transman has been passing so how can it be discrimination? She isn't sacking him because he's trans, she didn't know

The main message I get is that the women is "hoist by her own petard"?

What am I missing?

Cwenthryth · 10/02/2019 13:07

Ha the ‘punchline’ is good and makes a valid point.

That's really funny and sadly true.

😮

That takes the 'many a true word' maxim to its extreme! Has it been picked up on twitter?
