Description

Here's a detailed, accessible description of the comic:

Panel 1: A man resembling a historical philosopher, Immanuel Kant, stands on the left with an expression of consideration. He has grey hair, a curled hairstyle, and wears a black coat and white cravat. To the right, a younger person with reddish hair and a casual red shirt expresses excitement. The dialogue reads:

Younger Person: "Hey Immanuel Kant, I really like your idea of living life by a set of universal axioms."

Kant: "Yes, people are an end in themselves. Always."

Panel 2: The younger person gestures enthusiastically, saying:

Younger Person: "Yeah! Yes!"

A figure in the distance, partially obscured by trees, appears to be walking away.

Panel 3: The scene shifts to a more somber tone. The dialogue from Kant continues, displayed on the left:

Kant: "…which is why you can't do casual sex, even if it's consensual, because it is degrading to both partners."

Panel 4: The conversation appears to conclude with a reflective statement. The younger person listens intently, and Kant's dialogue continues:

Kant: "Yet one begins to see the virtue of utility maximization."

Overall Appearance: The comic uses simple line drawings and a limited color palette for clarity. Text is clearly legible in speech bubbles. The characters are exaggerated in style, with distinct features lending to their emotional expressions.
