guys this new Yorker shit is getting crazy. First off, I feel like I have definitely seen a cover like this with george bush on it wearing a turbin. i could be 100% making this up but it pops into my head as an image. No one cared. Second, it’s a political caricature! and perhaps most importantly IT WAS FUNNY! One of the reasons i can't wait for racism to be over (aside from my own personal attachment to the debate) is that crap like this will officially not be a big deal. But alas, we still live in racism/hater america.
to quote Bill Maher: "
“If you can’t do irony on the cover of The New Yorker, where can you do it?”
truth!
