I don't know, man, I always hate political cartoons that feel the need to label everything. Like, is that necessary?

[–] GrabtharsHammer 149 points 11 months ago (2 children)

It's not necessary. That is why this cartoon has them.

This artist makes cartoons that are parodies of over-labelled political cartoons. He satirizes by imitating his target's crappy form.

[–] themeatbridge 30 points 11 months ago

In that case, well done.

also if youre reading this and if you're not familiar with his work - the statue of liberty crying is in practically every cartoon as well.

If you're reading this and you are not familiar with it, holy shit I envy you because you are in for a treat, his comics are the best.

If reading these cartoons on and off for over a decade is a fad, I must have the meaning of the word wrong.

Yeah I didn't realize that was the part that was being satirized.

It’s satire of political cartoons/right wing views.
