Incredibly oversimplified.
Edit: I was going to add more detail to my comment and speak to both sides but why should I have to? The cartoon endeavors to simplify the most complex issue of the last fifty years, why should I have to add more context to a comment on one post, on a small community, on a small social network?
That's the point of a political cartoon...
You're right, the IDF has slaughtered far far far more people than appear in the cartoon
Not to mention that cartoon's lack of children.
A more realistic one would have at least 1/3 of the victims be children.
Yeah they missed the part where the cop beats up the guy
If you were expecting nuance and balance in a meme you might not exactly understand why you're here.
Man... I hate when a meme fails to capture all the nuance of a situation and manages to tell a deeper truth at the same time.
Yeah. The person preventing the lever from being pulled is also screaming that the person who wants to pull it is a tankie and a trump supporter in addition to being antisemitic.
Saying "Trump would be even worse" whilst stopping people from pulling the lever.
