My cartoon in the Nov 2, 2026 issue of The New Yorker

In a bar, a robot gets between two women who are having a drink, pushing them apart. Caption: "Would you like me to summarize this discussion?"

Elon Musk is a far left socialist #comic

1st page of a 2-page comic. Elon Musk says 'Hitler was a far left socialist' (a real tweet). Someone asks: 'So you completely diagree with him?" Musk: "Of course." Question: "you're against him purging communists, social democrats, and anyone within his party with socialist ideas?" Musk: "Um, sure." Question: "against his
denial of class conflict?" Musk: "Hm." Question: "you're against him privatizing state-owned assets? against his belief that the weak should perish, and his rejection of universal social welfare?" Musk: "No comment." Question: "against his desire to 'make war upon the Marxist principle that all men are equal' ? against him outlawing free trade unions and arresting union leaders" Musk, excited: "Huh!"

2nd page of a 2-page comic. Question to Musk continues: "'the capitalists have worked their way to the top through their capacity, and as the basis of this selection, which again only proves their higher race, they have a right to lead.' he said that. you disagree?" Musk, excited: "Wow!" Question: "you're against women being confined to 'Children, Kitchen, Church' and abortion being outlawed apart from
the racially undesirable?" "you're against the prosecution and forced detransitioning of trans people, classifying gender nonconforming identities as mental illnesses, eliminating homosexuals?" Musk, looking more interested: "WOW, I GUESS I'M A FAR LEFT SOCIALIST TOO."

Billionaireism is fractally terrible. By definition, the kind of person who will inflict the kinds of harms needed to amass billions of dollars in pursuit of total impunity is someone who will use that impunity to hurt even more people.

Our culture is not your costume #comic

A 4-panel comic. 1st panel: In a political rally, an angry politician in a suit surrounded by armed flag-carrying men shouts "kick out anyone who goes against our heritage and religion!" Attendants look confused and look up information in a screen. Panel 2, zoom in on people surrounding a screen that shows a list: OUR HERITAGE: Democracy, Equality, Individual liberty, Human rights, Separation of church and state, Freedom of religion, Scientific Rationalism, Critical thinking, Education, Art, and more. In the 3rd panel they look up another list: OUR RELIGION: Unconditional love, Compassion, Helping everyone, Generosity, Humility, Integrity, Pacifism, Anti-wealth accumulation and more. In the final panel everyone surrounds a catapult by the sea and are cheering, while the politician from the 1st panel and the armed men are inside, about to be kicked out as instructed. The politican says 'Now wait a minute.'

Burning your legacy to briefly lick boots #cartoon

Cartoon. A bunch of men kneel to an unseen ruler. One of the men says to the other “when he’s gone, do you think we will be remembered for anything other than this?”

Your country needs you (to wave a flag) #comics #politics #patriotism

A comic of a dialogue between two people. The first wears a T-shirt and a hat with the word 'Flag' written on it, as well as holding two flags that also have the word 'Flag' on them. The second person next to him doesn't have any flags. The flag holder is shouting "I LOVE MY COUNTRY". The second person says "Great, me too. So let's feed its kids." Flag holder says "No". Second person: "Make sure everyone in it is healthy, safe and educated. Protect them from being exploited. Give them a fair chance." Flag holder: "Pass". Second person: "Protect its nature, its clean air, its rivers, create green jobs and communities, buy local, become energy independent with renewable resources." Flag holder: "Hippy shit." Second person: "Take back control of essential utilities from private monopolies and profiteers." Flag holder: "Nah." Second person: "Strengthen alliances, build bridges, exchange knowledge, help each other." Flag holder, eye rolling: "Yawn." Second person, increasingly exasperated: "Fund its iconic institutions, its culture, arts and letters, the best things it's known for, learn from its real history so we get better." Flag holder: "Woke." Second person: "Ok, what it is specifically that you love about this country? And what have you ever done for it?" They stare at each other. Flag holder, angry: "You HATE your country."

AI has democratized solipsism, a privilege that was once the exclusive purview of billionaires, whose belief that most other people weren't fully *real* let them inflict the kind of mass pain on millions that is a prerequisite for amassing a truly vast fortune: pluralistic.net/2025/08/18/s... 16/

The best political system #cartoon

A cartoon of an interview of a wealthy man by a fancy fireplace. The man says 'The best political system is the one where almost everyone works hard all their life, so that people like me don't have to work at all.' The interviewer says 'Fascinating'. The wealthy man then says 'Anyone who disagrees with this is a dangerous woke socialist who hates their country.' The interviewer says 'Indeed.'

It's not a foolproof plan but every political debate from now on should be a Normal Guy competition. Ask them to describe grocery shopping in detail. Talk about what it's like to have a friend
