    I’m old as well but I’m plugged into the gaming scene enough to where I think I get it.

    The original cartoon had the kid screaming something like “DIE DIE DIE” at a violent video game, because scapegoat. The original artist making the point that “No it’s not guns, it’s video games.”

    But here, that text has been replaced with “Wolf pussy” meaning the kid is actually sexualizing an animal character (if you’re the exact flavor of old I am, you’ll know exactly what I mean when I say “Gadget Hackwrench”) and thus the game is turning him into a furry rather than a murderer, making the parents’ point about guns being the problem obviously correct with no counterpoint.
