Matt Wuerker's best of the year

Best of 2021

The election of Joe Biden was supposed to usher in a return to normal, an end to the pandemic, a calming of the waters. Instead 2021 was a year of surprises — an attempted coup, a new spike in Covid, a deepening of the culture wars. Matt Wuerker did his best to keep up with the tumultuous times. Here's a sample of his cartoons chronicling 2021.

Flugennock's Latest'n'Greatest: "Season's Greetings"

From DC's anarchist cartoonist, Mike Flugennock -

"Season's Greetings"
http://sinkers.org/stage/?p=3360

For the workers who died at a candle factory in Kentucky, and an
Amazon warehouse in Illinois, for every worker forced to risk their
life without proper protective gear or healthcare, in the middle of a
pandemic and a tornado, to keep the profits coming in and the supply
chain stocked so we can buy our daughters a Fighter Pilot Barbie for
Christmas... Season's Greetings from Capitalism.

"The bosses won't keep us safe; they only care about profit. Workers
are the only ones who know what is safe and what is not. We should
decide whether to continue working or not. For that purpose, we need
to fight for Health and Safety Commissions to be set up in all
workplaces that will function independent of the bosses, that are
democratically elected, and that can organize to impose protocols and
shut down production when necessary.

Not one more dead worker at the hands of the bosses! Our lives are
worth more than their profits!"
