Ben Garrison going from "Extreme white supremacist fringe cartoonist" to "The source of half of your conservative uncle's Facebook posts" says everything you need to know about where the right is heading.

-Garrison was never exactly a "white supremacist fringe cartoonist", though it's pretty clear he's no friend of Islam. He was victim of a mass 4chan trolling campaign artfully re-doing his drawings to emphasize a more white supremacist message, and started off as quite libertarian.

Also, that Ben Garrison cartoon is quite solid.

I'd suggest looking at David Horsey's stuff for left-wing hackery, as well as more cringe-worthy ones from McCoy and Ramirez for right-wing hackery.

How the hell can you defend this horrible cartoon as solid? It's basic racism.

-There are legitimately beautiful Black women and legitimately ugly White ones. Neither Melania nor Michelle fit in either of those categories.

Eharding's comments here make me want to say really misogynistic things about Melania.  But I guess I'll hold off, for now.

Every Eharding post makes me want to say something I probably shouldn't.

Why would it make you want to say misogynistic things about Melanie? She doesn't have anything to do with Eharding's nonsensical comments; that's all on him.

I've always noticed that contemporary American cartoons are really lazily drawn and structured. In fact, despite Garrison's idiotic views, his creepy fixation with green haired women and label fetish he's probably better than your average cartoonist nowadays, who normally relies heavily on tedious tropes like the donkey/elephant anthro, the wisecracking child/vet who TOTES PWN their opponents views and other such tedious stuff.

I mostly wanted to say something about certain things Melania's done in her career that eight years ago would never have met right-wingers' standards for 'class' - phrased less diplomatically.  But I'm sure Eharding never had any regard for class so it would be a moot point anyway.
