Pinocchio is considered to be, at least in part, an allegory of Italian society in the 19th century. The author, Carlo Collodi, was against the unification of Italy by monarchy in his era. It is considered likely that he was trying to show children the corruption and evil of those adults in positions of power and authority. With so much corruption, allegory and moral lessons contained in a long-standing and most popular children's story... Collodi cared and curated this kind of message to come across. Perhaps Pinocchio has stood the test of time because humanity still hasn't quite learned the lessons that Collodi was trying to teach us. Consider a man that was so informed, concerned and caring that he wrote a masterpiece to try and warn future generations of the kinds of evil that hides in plain sight. His idea of a solution to monarchy may or may not have been correct, but that is beside the point to the work he set out to do with Pinocchio. Pinocchio comes across as an emotional, emphatic work to address a serious emergency, rather than a penned political propaganda.
