Sidarman is a cartoonist for Haaretz, and he uploads provocative cartoons. He often uploads cartoons against Haredim in which he portrays them as spreaders of diseases (in the case of Corona) and as robbers who love money. Today he uploaded this cartoon:

Do you think it’s appropriate not to upload content like this because of anti-Semitic associations? For many people, it triggers memories of Nazi Germany.

This doesn’t seem like a caricature to me at all. It’s a cartoon depiction of reality. And if it bothers someone, they should respect it and change the situation. The situation bothers them, not the drawing. Someone who robs is hurt by being said to be a robber. He shouldn’t rob and not have it said about him.

It's sad that Jews draw cartoons that remind us of dark days.

It's sad that we are in dark days.
