The depressing thing is that it's super natural if you accept the core premise of "the organelles are literally people in a community"; a cancer cell is a cell that went wrong after all.

Well yeah it's supposed to be an extra layer of tragedy because the body fighting against cancer is fighting against your own people who betrayed you

This is a whole thing, the regular white blood cells (neutrophils) are frontline grunt soldiers who fight against monsters (bacteria) Their superiors, the Killer T cells, are the grimdark secret police who monitor their own citizenry for any sign of treasonous DNA

It's hilarious because it comes off as bizarre propaganda if you take it at all seriously Little baby cancer cells huddled in terror as a Killer T death squad starts kicking down doors demanding to know where the neoplastic transcription errors are
