A Series of Unfortunate Events is anarchist propaganda because all of the problems are caused by both capitalist bureaucracy and a weird insistence from everybody with power that “the rules,” no matter how silly, must be followed.

I mean, partially, yes; for sure. But Daniel Handler has also stated that the series is a direct allegory for antisemitism: 

“My father’s family fled Germany in 1938 and 1939 and some of them made it and some of them didn’t. And so, I grew up with a close-knit group of actually fairly distant relatives who were all survivors of – I mean they weren’t all survivors of camps by any means – but they were all survivors of getting out of Germany just in time. And I was fed by stories of how good behavior is not necessarily reward and bad behavior is not necessarily punished, so I think that shaped my world view.”

“I think there is something naturally Jewish about unending misery.”

damn this explains a lot
