Very nice drawing. I'm not 100% sure of the message, but that's just me.

Not many political cartoonists can combine craft with solid ideas and writing. They usually have one or the other.

This is nicely rendered but real meh in concept.

It's an ~60 year old car up on blocks because Cuba is so impoverished that's the only cars most people have access to. If they have a car at all. On the plus side though, Cuban mechanics can fix just about anything. Seriously, in a zombie apocalypse, any group of survivors that doesn't have a Cuban mechanic with them is doomed to travel on foot after a short while. Of course, most Cubans are already living like its the apocalypse, so they're used to it.

Although somehow I doubt that Castro's Hearse was that shitty.

Did you miss the part where it broke down mid-parade and had to be pushed by soldiers?

[invisible furry hand]

It's so unspoilt

[Suthenboy]

And authentic.

[sarcasmic]

Poverty is so romantic...

So this is Cash-For-Clunkers, Cubano flavoured; the most unpretentious boneyard these eyes did see.

Even those tail lamp glasses are intact. I wonder if the A/C compressor, radiator, and engine block are still salvageable? Carburetor will probably need a rebuild...

[Kurmudgeonly Kristen]

Quaint, like a living museum! It's like the tropical Colonial Williamsburg!

[Austrian Anarchy]

It is so racist! The artist obviously thinks every Mexican has a broken down car on blocks in his front yard. If that wasn't racist enough, Cubans are not even Mexican!

[Fist of Etiquette]

Pretty opulent. North Korea can't even afford cinder blocks.

[Groovus Maximus]

Nor the individual gravestones.

[Cynical Asshole]

Everyone's equal in a mass grave...

Jeep Carrying Castro's Ashes Breaks Down During Procession

[I can't even]

The picture of Castro in his broken down shit wagon is funnier than the drawing. The cartoon hearse is nicer than the actual piece of crap they put him on.

[Rhywun]

That piece of crap was probably just for show anyway. "Man of the people" and all that.

"Haha! Hearse carrying diabolical stalinist despot #FidelCastro breaks down during funeral parade processional. #karma, you marvelous bitch!" @Reaganista tweeted.

My thoughts exactly.

::thunderous applause::

Genuine lulz came out of my head.

[CatoTheChipper]

Castro in the 1950s auto graveyard of history. Two cliches come to mind:

Graveyards are full of indispensable men. (Tallyrand ?)

[T]he march of freedom and democracy .. will leave Marxism-Leninism on the ash-heap of history. (Reagan)

[brady949]

One of these days Friday Funnies should actually be funny.

[Unemployed Armenian Tranny]

The real funeral was funnier.

[Austrian Anarchy]

Not nearly as entertaining as Arafat's.
