This is one of my favorite comics and I'll say something I've said before:

Even the lion who wants to start the school thinks he's helping the antelope and the other lions think he's crazy, possibly even a class traitor. He thinks he's helping, but his entire worldview is from a lion's perspective, so he's not equipped to get the antelopes to think outside of the Predator-Prey dynamic. In the real world, it's very possible for people to think that they're helping, but if they aren't prepared to question the underlying foundations of a system they're a part of, then they may never make any real changes.
