An Israeli cartoonist was fired from his job at the Jerusalem Report for publishing a cartoon depicting Netanyahu & his coalition as pigs after they passed the nation-state law. Above them is a giant quote from Animal Farm.

So much for freedom of speech. What else is a cartoonist supposed to do? That's his job. I wish he had portrayed them as donkeys though. My personal preference.

Couple weeks ago after the eurovision song contest a famous German cartoonist was fired here too because he made a cartoon about Netanyahu and that singer. It wasn‘t antisemitic but his bosses did anyway to be safe 🙄

As if firing a person stops them painting what they feel. Shallow apartheid mentality. Trust me he's gonna draw more 🖌️🖌️

Why would someone be fired for that? Destroys the notion of freedom of speech

They should've fired the editor if they didn't like it, and he was a freelancer so technically not fired.

That quote is in fact even better in Norwegian translation.
All animals are equal
Alle dyr er like
but some animals are more equal
men noen dyr er likere
"likere" means both "more equal" AND "better"...

That book was required reading when I was a student. I'm surprised anyone remembers it today.
