TRANSCRIPT OF CARTOON
This cartoon has six panels. All six panels feature a 50ish white man, wearing glasses and a suit jacket over a black tee shirt, speaking directly to the viewer. Two of the panels are much narrower than the other four. In addition to those six panels, there’s also a tiny “kicker” panel below the bottom of the cartoon.
PANEL 1
A medium shot of the man. He is speaking excitedly and angrily at the viewer, holding a fist in the air. We can see there’s a tree behind him.
MAN: Did you read my article in Quibbette? I show how there’s no freedom of speech for anyone criticizing the “woke” fascists!
PANEL 2
A longer shot lets us see he’s standing on a path on what might be a college  quadrangle. It’s a park-like space with trees and a faux-roman style building in the background. He continues to speak intensely, holding up a forefinger to make a point.
MAN: Like I said in the Times, the campus left are coddled, free-speech hating totalitarians!
PANEL 3
In a closer shot, and a much smaller, narrower panel, the man, smiling, cups his mouth with a hand to whisper to the viewer. He’s making a thumbs up sign with his other hand.
MAN (whispering): Psst! I’m pro-choice, and I voted for Obama.
PANEL 4
He’s back to angry rant mode, raising both hands into the air.
MAN: Like I said on Fox: The Democrats have been taken over by identitarian totalitarians who hate white men!
PANEL 5
Again smiling and whispering in a much narrower panel.
MAN: Psst! Have I mentioned I have a Black friend?
PANEL 6
In the final panel, the man has a hurt expression, and is holding one hand flat on his chest.
MAN: And how dare they call me a conservative after I took all those liberal positions!
SMALL KICKER PANEL BELOW BOTTOM OF STRIP
Still talking directly at the viewer, the man looks angry again.
MAN: And why can’t those fascist totalitarian cowardly thugs be more civil?
