Good morning!!!

I've never read one, I don't care that much about sports, and even the swimsuit edition is an obvious ploy. I just hate to see another print magazine bite the dust.

I love paging through my Rolling Stone Magazine and hanging out at the local record store. They all just have to hang on a little longer.

Thanx for posting!!

Is it suggesting the virus was a Chinese bio-weapon? Or that China wants their entire population to die of COVID?

Which China will deny they have. If and that's a big IF, IF China did produce covid as a bio-weapon
and they are attempting to make a deadlier version, who are they thinking about targeting?
My guess is Taiwan. He probably drew this in response to a rumor he read.

developed a bio-weapon. The suggestion that the Chinese wanted to kill 100% of their own population is absurd. I blame china for suppressing information about the Covid outbreak that put the whole world at risk, but I don’t find the cartoon eioher funny or informative.

But I thank you for your take on the meaning. If it were true, did China think the disease would be contained in Taiwan? Sounds exceedingly improbable. Bio-weapons have to have a deadly effect very rapidly or else they are useless, and dangerous to the entire world. But I suppose it is possible they were experimenting with the virus for possible use as a bioweapon and it escaped containment in the lab.

I think the origin in a market selling local wild animals for food is more probable. I used to buy meat like that in West Africa when I was a Peace Corps volunteer there.

I gave it a lot of thought before adding it to the group, when I remembered reading that editorial
cartoonists read and study almost everything written and spoken by politicians and
government employees looking for the sliver of truth to educate readers about.

Plus I don't take this guy as a conspiracy nut, he's either early with his observations or he's
barking up the wrong tree, time will tell. And I believe it's healthy for us voters to be informed
of everything going on in the world. Have a nice day.

I've seen him around for years, most of his cartoons do not pass my smell test, the one above was
a rare exception and was OK to post IMO. He's one of those cartoonists I don't keep a bookmark on.

Thank you.
