      Sine wave formation might have been more efficient and hence resulted in survival, but I'm uncertain as to whether the web structure and anchor points would have allowed for it.

                      Or a metaphor for socialism... lacking the economic freedom to buy more silk, the spider couldn't escape an artificially designed system run by a central authority that didn't predict this scenario, because it isn't feasible for a central authority to predict every scenario.

                      Or maybe, given that the looks like the glass is outside on the ground so maybe the spider was put into the glass on purpose to make the photo? So the spider was sent to a gulag to die because it wasn't ideologically pure enough.

                      Or maybe it's just a spider in a glass and you can stretch a metaphor in any direction you want.

                          The spider gives context and removing it would diminish everything

                            mmm yes. a spider which engages in the free market of silk was prevented by socialists from buying silk at a competitive rate. 🧐 that DOES describe what happened here. we should end all public welfare and privatize the justice system.

                                It's possible some dumbass got into power and had some goons put the spider into the glass and put tariffs on importing silk. The spider is dead and we'll never know if the spider would be dead had there been a competent in charge. But socialists are 100% certain the spider was going to die anyway because they believe all spiders will inevitably die because some weirdo with a big beard said something about spiders a couple hundred years ago.

                                Metaphorically speaking, of course.

                                      That's not a tankie thing to say and I doubt, a tankie would stick around on an anarchist server that doesn't really welcome said people.
