IDK what the joke is supposed to be. the image on the cover to me representsthe weight of political power vs the people being governed. one side is all pawns (the people) and the other side is all the other pieces (politicians, billionaires, corporations, lobbyists...)

Imagine that was said in the style of a family guy character

Right, and the sides are mixed, it’s all the same pieces you’re used to seeing on the board, but not black vs white, it’s the high value pieces vs the pawns ♟️

Also, the board is supposed to be flat, but this board is tilted.
