I think humans are just derpheads in general. Just because you can see hypocrisy on the right doesn't mean what I said isn't true.

You folks that say it's not racist, are probably right. I'm SURE Netanyahu likes being portrayed as a dog, any kind of dog, doing a dog task. :/

It doens't blatantly but it appeases to those that harbor those kind of flighty intentions, don't u think so? And that is intended.


If you lower the standards enough you can see any message in any image. I dont see that as even approaching racism without some big stretches

This is funny because one of Trump's longest running and most used insults about people is calling them dogs

even many times when it makes absolutely no sense at all

If they wanted to be correct they'd have protrayed Netanyahu as a rat.

I really dont think that the person who drew it had antisemitic intentions in mind. The star-of-david collar around Netanyahu-dog's neck was most likely intended to give those readers a cue who arent familiar with Netanyahu's face or didnt recognize it in this image.

So in the end, the pic imho bordered on anti-semitic tropes while not really crossing the rubicon. Nonetheless, it was clearly derogatory and tasteless. But the nytimes recognized and owned up to its error quite quickly, hence, we should let this issue rest and not try to artificially blow it out of proportion in a desperate and petty attempt at scoring political points.

here's a good rule of thumb for doodling:
when you're thinking of making disparaging cariactures of jews and including a star of david in the doodle: Don't.
back up, close the door, walk 10 feet away


could you make a similar guide about caricatures of allah please?
how about disparaging caricatures of ISIS leaders?
