Democrats reading too much into last Tuesday's outcomes as a portent for two years' hence might also bear observation.

Washington Post editor David Shipley approved, published, then deleted the Mike Ramirez cartoon on the left:

The Washington Post took down an editorial cartoon (last) Wednesday that depicted a Hamas leader using civilians as human shields after the drawing was criticized as racist and dehumanizing toward Palestinians.

More about the censored cartoon from al-Jazeera and The Hill.

Updates: Conservative media bash the removal of the 'toon, and Ramirez and the WaPo have revised their agreement regarding his contributions to their op-ed pages.

Ramirez has always been a right-wing freak, but censorship of political cartoons is not something a democracy does.  I thought we settled this topic when the offices of Charlie Hebdo were attacked.  If you were ever concerned about free speech, corporate media, and creeping fascism, now would be a great time to support/oppose as the case may be.

And take precautions when you do, but don't be paranoid.  One of the several chronic flaws of Red MAGA groupthink is violent hallucinations.
