Bait? (Even then, it's really bizarre)

I have to admit, I have no idea what the message or point of that cartoon is supposed to be.

I think the message is quite simple. I think that this is a re-drawn version of some other comic with a similar theme of "A accuses B of being something that A is."

In this particular comic the implication is that the tumblr-feminazies are ugly and fat while the Stormfront neo-nazis are skinny and possibly good looking. ...Or perhaps just average looking, hard to say from so simplistic art style. Either way, clearly the artist is trying to say that Stormfront users are not (or at least all of them aren't) "fat neckbeard virgins" like the straw-woman is saying.

And this could just be a troll image done by a random troll who wanted to troll feminists rather than by a neo-nazi.
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!

And what's going on in Nazi Guy's sign? Super-Hitler threatening a guy with a baguette?

I don't know.  Maybe it's a crazy newspaper salesman who takes his job very seriously.

I think it is a rolled up piece of paper. Presumably some type of  declaration or something. It looks like the "artist" photoshopped an another racist drawing into that sign but I can't be bothered to go look for the original one.

You may recall that back when Obama first campaigned for President, Time Magazine, or maybe it was The New Yorker, ran a cover with a cartoon of Obama and Michelle dressed in desert robes, holding AK's and giving each other a fist-bump. It was meant as satire of the rightwingnut media pundits. The fist-bump happened between the Obamas after a campaign speech, and the usual clueless old white conservative fuckwits freaked out, calling that common gesture a "thug" or "terrorist" hand signal.

I believe this cartoon above is just an example of Daryl Cagle, a respected cartoonist who for decades has been consistently even handed in critiquing pols from both parties, poking fun at rightwingnut hype.
Quote from: Ultimate Chatbot That Totally Passes The Turing Test
I sympathize completely. However, to use against us. Let me ask you a troll. On the one who pulled it. But here's the question: where do I think it might as well have stepped out of all people would cling to a layman.

So this is a satire of a Right-Wing cartoon. Makes sense.

I know I should be offended but this seems like something out of a really stupid and dumb porno. (or hell not even a porno it's probably belongs in a really obscene and stupid hentai or something.)

I'm not entirely sure what the point of that is besides blatant offensiveness, but it fails even in that regard.

The guy's shirt is a looks like the Ukrainian or Swedish flag. Is the cartoonist saying that Ukrainians & Swedes are Somali Ebola victim fellatio fans?

Really gross & stupid.

Oh, I think it's probably some Far-Right Swedish reactionary's way to say "I hate all these Somali immigrants!".

It probably isn't even drawn by a Swede.

The thing is that racists on 4chan in particular and elsewhere as well REALLY hate Sweden. They complain that it is just a caliphate. They complain about the immigrants taking over the country and that the Swedish people are too accepting of muslims and Africans. They complain about "multiculturalism" which is practically a swear word among them now.

This comic is just another insult directed at the Swedish.
