The lines were spoken by a man who imagined that he was a woman. Therefore, I think the comic strip was intended rather about how men can have a skewed perception of women.

The joke is that the guys are idiots about women. This isn't misogyny.

The "people acknowledge my existence, people hold the door for me" is not about them being idiots. It's Scott arguing that women have it easy compared to men (which may or may not be true, feminists will disagree).

"Men are nice to you because of sex," is not an argument that women have it easy compared to men. It's another joke about men being idiots.

I've observed that a lot of left wing socialists have a hard time getting humor or taking a joke. I think there is some underlying personality trait that might cause both aspects.

I suspect this tendency is not correlated to political leaning in any way, and the suggestion that it is says more about how you want to perceive people of a particular leaning than anything about them.

There is a lot of research that personality traits on political leanings are correlated. So maybe that same common cause also affects humor?
