Take a look at 863, or the alt text of 764. Liberal arts majors are identified as an outgroup in XKCD's "warning" at the bottom of each page. It's as transparent as Dr Pepper 10 saying "It's not for women!!"
How is 863 against liberal arts majors? It seems to be about lazy naive undecided students, vs people seriously interested in their major.
The warning at the bottom says, "This comic occasionally contains strong language (which may be unsuitable for children), unusual humor (which may be unsuitable for adults), and advanced mathematics (which may be unsuitable for liberal-arts majors)."
So yeah, hardly transparent.
If you only have 2 examples out of 1002 that even debatably support your point, your overall characterization is an absurd overgeneralization at best.
