Come on, how is a caricature of one man, the instigator of a war on a neighboring country considered racism? I've seen Donald Trump depicted as a Donkey or a Pig so many times, is that okay then? Or is that racism towards all Americans? Did you consider you are seeing things that are not really there and that you might be part of a small group of people that are too sensitive towards these caricatures?
As I've said before: monkey caricatures have historical precedent. It's about as bad as depicting him like a kraken/squid.
