Leftists get most upset when they are the butt of jokes that ring true.

The Indianapolis Star issued an apology to its readers after an outcry over an editorial cartoon that skewered Christine Blasey Ford ahead of her upcoming Senate hearing.
The cartoon, which was published in the newspaper’s print edition Sunday, depicted Ford sitting in front of the Judiciary Committee with her back to the reader.
“Here are my demands,” she is depicted telling the panel. “No questions from lawyers, dim the lights, I want roses, sparkling water, a bowl of green M&Ms."
The cartoon was mocking Ford, who has accused Supreme Court nominee Brett M. Kavanaugh of sexually assaulting her at a gathering when the two were teenagers in Maryland in the 1980s, for her requests during a lengthy back and forth with Republican senators to schedule her hearing. Ford said through her attorneys that she wanted the senators to agree to certain conditions to ensure her safety and the fairness of the proceeding.

Well I think it’s funny. Don’t know what the problem is
outcry = ten angry letters and twenty-five orchestrated tweets from activists.
This whole deal with Balsey Ford is her trying to say that she actually said NO one time in her life.
I think I speak for everyone when I ask, were they plain or peanut? :-)
Obviously she didn’t collaborate with Van Halen. They wanted the brown M&M’s taken out.
“Well I think it’s funny. Don’t know what the problem is”
She’s a VICTIM and is therefore sacred. She can’t lie or have an agenda, because she’s a VICTIM. (It’s hilarious.)
The cartoon is appropriate and well-done. Argue the merits!
When is the Washington Post going to apologize for serving up a daily cr@p sandwich?
Truth sounds like hate to those who hate truth.
I’m surprised she did not go with the pony.
Snowflakes apologizing to other triggered snowflakes.
Hell there is a lot of truth in that cartoon.
Political cartoons must not disagree with our leftist cultural overlords.
I saw an interview about that once. They said the reason they put stuff like that in the contracts is because if they follow through with silly little demands it means they actually read the contract and followed what it says.
I haven’t seen any recent pics of her, but she does seem to be somewhat lacking in gravitas....
“Snowflakes apologizing to other triggered snowflakes.”
Snowflaking ain’t easy. Hehehehe
"...didn’t collaborate with Van Halen..."
Never apologize to SJWs. That only ever serves to chum the waters and kick off a feeding frenzy.
People really need to read SJWs Always Lie and SJWs Always Double Down.
*Smacks forehead...* WHY? The cartoon is spot on. Why is everyone so afraid of limp-wristed liberals?
