Political cartoons would be so much better if they did that instead of looking visually cluttered with all the forced metaphors being drawn into the scene. I swear, some of those things are like puzzles. You miss one or two small pieces of context and suddenly the whole cartoon makes 0 sense.
I hear you, but I do like it when the artists at least makes some effort at satire. The above comic reads more like a motivational poster than something making a point.
I keep looking at the last panel expecting the shoe to drop, but am left deeply unsatisfied, even though it’s a message I agree with
The JFK conspiracy community apparently was fixating on this guy visible in the background of some of the film. On a bright sunny day in Houston Texas, he’s wearing a formal suit and carrying an umbrella.
Apparently he was doing so as a protest against JFK because something something a character with an umbrella was a common symbol in political cartoons at the time?

I am pretty sure the point is that it’s okay to show emotions as a man.
I know, I guess I was just expecting something a bit more. Right now I feel preached to about something I already agree with.
I don’t feel I learned anything, and I wonder if the desired audience will actually see this
