Card-Carrying Villain: Basically anyone working for the government or a business. Particularly the Omnicorp company. One of the executives gets upset when people don't recognize how evil he is.

Furry Confusion
 Minimum Security (Comic Strip) / int_27a40541
comment
Furry Confusion: Lampshaded when we learn that Bunnista has a pet dog. Nikko's boyfriend brings up the implication of slavery. The dog explains that he's more like a roommate. In another strip, the main characters wonder what fish think. The fish talk to each other, also wondering what humans think. This is odd since every other animal (birds, frogs, raccoons, etc.) can speak to the characters just fine.

Carnivore Confusion: Lampshaded. Bunnista has a pet dog (see Furry Confusion down below) who he introduces to his mother. When the dog mentions that he eats meat, the rabbit's mother gasps and exclaims, "But we're meat!".

Strawman Political: You either agree with Kranti or you're an idiotic right-wing fascist. On top of that, the way the main characters usually act, one might think that it was being written by someone who wanted to strawman environmentalists. These are the heroes, folks.

Just Before the End: The story takes place in modern times but many strips explain that the economy (and Capitalism in general) will collapse any day now, we have all been poisoned in many different ways, the ecosystem is on the verge of breaking down to the point that all species of animals and plants will be dead soon, global warming and other natural disasters will destroy the Earth in the next few years, and the government is just one step away from locking everyone into gulags For the Evulz. In short, we're all screwed and we can't do a thing about it.

Logical Fallacies: Kranti thinks that it would be "so simple" for all the people to quit their jobs and start living off the land. [3] Apparently, pro-life protesters all secretly want to destroy all female rights. [4] In yet another strip, Kranti argues against science, and says that in its place we should use... science.
