I must be dumb, because I saw the cartoon in question. If the artist was indeed leftist, I don’t believe he was very good at it, because I took the cartoon to be true - Kirk’s death has, in fact, been a “turning point” for millions across the country and around the world. We’re seeing the evidence day after day. The world had its eyes opened as to the fact that this isn’t left vs. right. It’s good vs. evil. Maybe I’m just a moron. Could all be true.
That's exactly the way I interpreted it. Guess we can be stupid together.
That’s how I see it as well. A poster upthread said Bok usually leans right — I did an image search and find that to be true. I think Bok was emphasizing that Kirk’s martyrdom will accelerate the preference cascade towards sanity that was Charlie (and now Erika) Kirk’s life work and purpose. To paraphrase Mrs. Kirk, the evil collective that killed her husband have NO IDEA what a “Turning Point” they have unleashed!
I agree. I’ve studied the political cartoon in question, and don’t see anything wrong with it. I must be missing something ...
