Description

Comic Description:

The comic features two characters in a living room setting.

Top Section (Title):

• Text: "PROBLEM: LARGE BUREAUCRACIES TEND TO BE SLOW AND INEFFICIENT. SOLUTION: CREATE LARGE BUREAUCRACIES FOR STUFF WE DON'T LIKE."

Panel 1:

• A woman with shoulder-length hair, wearing a pink shirt and blue pants, sits on a couch looking at a man.
• Woman: "Hey, weren't you planning to go downtown to yell at ethnic minorities today?"
• Man: "My racism license hasn't come in yet!"

Panel 2:

• Close-up of the man gesturing with his hands, looking frustrated.
• Woman (continuing): "But you sent the paperwork weeks ago!"

Panel 3:

• The man responds, still looking exasperated.
• Man: "I sent my driver's license, but they needed a passport, so I had to re-send, and then I… look, it's a whole thing, okay?"

The dialogue reveals a satirical take on bureaucratic inefficiencies regarding a fictional "racism license."
