Yes, additionally, what was particularly striking to me are the very simplistic worldviews devoid of nuance: capitalism bad, office jobs unfulfilling, money doesn't provide happiness. While these can all be true at face value, they are all very debatable and can depend on the context.

But also the the path from choosing the message to choosing the execution seems short and unoriginal. Money = trap? Okay, but there's nothing more to it.

To not be all negative, here are some examples that I think are better. While these are all designs rather than illustrations, I chose them because they use similar simplistic premises, but the execution is a bit more clever. They combine multiple symbols in a creative and intriguing way:

Breathtakingly beautiful.

This is my own personal preference but whenever I see “higher beings” like gods and celestial deities I always liken them to be perfect figures. So things like blemishes, moles, and baby hairs always make me a bit sad considering the former are mutations in the skin (which is a really human characteristic of imperfection). I remember playing Mortal Kombat and the antagonist goddess, Kronica, has freckles. So very strange for me. Battle scars I can understand but freckles is just too “human”.
