I don’t entirely understand who Republicans are performing for. The ones who are most in the bag for Israel, no matter how genocidal Israel is, and are currently yelling about antisemitism on college campuses, do not care about antisemitism or students or Israel as a state or Jews. Many of them are either overtly or covertly antisemitic. Who is the audience?

@thomasfuchs@aleen I am hoping that I will get to learn more about newspaper cartoon culture elsewhere—there are precious few materials I’ve found in searching. I have some Swedish ones and I saw some in Paris as part of an exhibition of an amazing publisher/designer/store last year.
