Kappa

Some of the satire of "Kappa" is focused on censorship. A clear example occurs during Krabach's concert. Krabach is said to be a brilliant musician and during his performance he was interrupted by a cop who yelled, "Stop the performance!" In this case the cop represents a tyrannical force who tries to control the expression of the people. However, the crowd does not support this force as they contend with the police-kappa calling him a "bloody fool" etc, etc. They urged Krabach to keep on playing. The narrator was curious about the fuss and asked Mag why it had become as big as it did; to which Mag replied that art-forms such as painting and writing should be "obvious to anyone". Essentially, it should not be a piece open for discussion. There should be no hidden messages, symbolism and things of that nature. Mag continues to say that the country never prohibited sales but there is a prohibition on performances. Furthermore, music is dangerous as it can corrupt. In a country where a government that wants tight control of its people, taking away the freedom art can bring causes people to be less creative and in turn they are more complacent with the powers that be. Moreover, it is interesting that Mag mentions how there has never been a prohibition on sales. Throughout the story we learn how capitalist the Kappa world is. Production is more important than the life of the people (as those who are unemployed are turn into food, thus even death is commodified). Art is limited to only a few people; essentially people who can afford it. 
We also exhibit censorship when it is revealed that the biggest capitalist of all, the Kappa Gael, is the one who controls the newspaper. The newspaper is supposedly made for the working class and is an "ally of the working man". However, by explaining the levels of power, Gael exposes that it all comes down to one man, and it is himself who already controls much of the industries in Kappaland. Moreover, there is no mentioning of strikes. Thus, the world doesn't know if any struggles exist for the working man. There is no medium in which they can expose the oppression of capitalism. 

Question: Although it's not related to the paragraph I wrote, I noticed, while I was reading the end, the narrator returned home through a rope latter. However, before that he just saw it as rope, which led me to believe (for a second at least) that maybe he got to Kappa land by attempting to commit suicide through hanging. He was probably traveling through the woods by himself to carry out this act. Do you think this could be a possibility? Do you think he at any point shared the same feelings as Tok?
