Can these awful people at least have more than one caricature for a Jewish person?

Most anti-Semites in the West are poor artists plagiarists.

Looks remarkably like the drawings in Eco's Prague Cemetery. But then, that caricature is standard for that singular brand of artist or plagiarizer. I doubt they could draw or think of anything else as they are eternally fixated on that one subject.

iDon'tCare
iDidn't know that the homosexuals are a separate gender.

Or at least I assume that is what the comic is implying.
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!

Maybe it's conflating being trans* with being gay.  If that's the case, then the cartoonist's as enlightened on the subject matter as Ayatollah Khomeini.

"iTrans*" doesn't effectively fit in the space he's given the word.

Mr. Cook's gay, not trans*.

Oh. I haven't actually looked it up, given that the orientation of some rich-bag CEO doesn't mean much to me.

Still, same explanation applies. 'Sexual orientation' wouldn't fit either, and the guy obviously doesn't care about either group enough to care.

iKnow that Cook is gay, but the comic says he "announces gender" so that would imply that the "artist" believes homosexuality is a gender not an orientation.

The second cartoon doesn't look all that bad. Of course, I feel that I might be interpreting that in a different way than the cartoon maker, so there's that.

Here's a good one from my local paper.



When faced with complaints that the cartoon was racist, they reposted this version:



They have since taken it down.
RIP Tony Benn (1925 - 2014)

"There is no moral difference between a stealth bomber and a suicide bomber. Both kill innocent people for political reasons."

“If we can find the money to kill people, we can find the money to help people.”

"I'm not frightened about death. I don't know why, but I just feel that at a certain moment your switch is switched off, and that's it. And you can't do anything about it."

The immigrants don't even look remotely threatening in this. The cartoonist must not be very good at race-baiting.
