Here's a list of tons of leftist movies.
I know socialism isn't asceticism, but it isn't temporarily working as an arms dealer to make hella cash, buy nice shit, then renounce the unethical lifestyle to stay humble but keep the nice shit either.
It would be symbolic, but you yourself said Riley's works are more symbolic than substantive, and this would be an appropriate symbol.
I think Sorry is supposed to be somewhat autobiographical, Riley was a broke indie artist, his work got popular enough that he could "sell out", he did for a bit but got grossed out by it and quit, now he's back to being an indie artist but he's a bit more mature and smart now and can capitalize on his work enough to live decently without full on selling out, but even when he's "independent" he's still a slave to capitalism, hence the final transformation into a horse. I think making it arms dealing and not writing for HBO or whatever was just some hyperbole to get the point across. At least that's what I think he's getting at if I had to guess.
It would be a symbol but also an empty one. He's still back in the garage, I think him remodeling it is more meant to be a sign that he's taking shit more seriously now, just because he's not loaded anymore doesn't mean he has to be a slob. If I talked some guy who worked at Northrop Grumman into quitting his job and he moved out of his condo into a studio on the bad side of town I wouldn't exactly berate him for bringing his Playstation and electric toothbrush. But also he still turns into a horse at the end, which could be a sign that Riley actually AGREES with you, Cash still hung on to the trappings of his bourgeois life and it corrupted him? Idk there's various ways you could read it.
