Tellingly, there is no room in the cartoonish leftist world view for the most fundamental, most sacred, and most attacked human right all: liberty. :(

I mean, I don't see anyone forcing those people to pick apples...

How would liberty be represented in that cartoon on what equality or equity looks like?

Seriously?
Where did the ladders come from?
Who built the scaffolding?
Why a scaffold instead of more trees -- or other kinds of trees, or other things altogether?
What are the two kids allowed to do with the apples?
Do they have to have apples at all?
Who planted the tree?
Who tends it and keeps it healthy?
Who protects it from poachers?
Why is there an apple tree there at all, and not an orange tree or a well or a ballfield?

The fact that a leftist can't even comprehend a place for liberty in ordinary life, much less think of how to represent it, speaks volumes.

More specifically, you were correct in calling his image cartoon, but wrong it saying it "explains" anything -- except perhaps (by illustration) the facile simple-mindedness that underlies so much of modern leftism.
