The Mongolian
Octopus could mean the labour of children, the robbery of place, opium, smallpox,
pakahpu, bribery and fan-tan. The meaning of it is to show things that were a
major issue back then.
Children getting
used for jobs adults could be doing and getting paid a lot less while getting
hurt on the job for not doing it. In the cartoon of the Mongolian Octopus shows
children getting used for labour. Robbery was a major issue back than with
families trying to be feed and having to end of stealing food to feed the
family, people also became to turn to bribery, trying to feed their family and
get medicine and other items. Shown in the cartoon stealing. Smallpox is a
disease mainly got back than, meaning people’s skin was ruined by the virus
going around. People became to act ‘immorality’.
This was all shown
in the Mongolian Octopus cartoon.
