Michael Ramirez managed to insult a surprisingly large and diverse portion of the human population in a single frame with his July 25 editorial cartoon. Was it just younger generations that were the target of this unfunny hit job, or was it an attack on women? Both?

The only redeeming feature of this cartoon is that it managed to efficiently package up enough implicit bias for an entire semester's worth of discussion. To that end, bravo, Mr. Ramirez.
