The Anti-Capitalist Irony of Toontown Online

A thorough analysis of the world of Toontown Online, and how its children's play vs. adult work narrative promotes anti-capitalist messaging. Join me in exploring Toontown's history through the works of Who Framed Roger Rabbit and the Donald Duck/Uncle Scrooge comics, the parody of U.S. corporatism through Cog Nation, and how Toontown Rewritten, Corporate Clash, and the broader Toon community embody TTO's anti-capitalist themes.
