SATIRE
It's been long said that a picture is worth a thousand words. In the age of the sound bite and an astounding word inflation, where superlatives are common place, certainly a picture has become worth untold thousands of words. It is an age in which pictorial satire, called pictograms here, would seem to be a perfect fit.
Exposing the hidden motivations of public figures and the futility of their self serving policies has forever been the goal of political satire. In 1947, the preeminant satirist George Orwell wrote to the effect that due to "modern" technology vastly increasing the power of the state, the only defense for those who love liberty and value human dignity is the pencil. What would he say today?
The people who do pictorial satire differ greatly in style and outlook. I hope you enjoy mine, if not there are many others who are easy to find on the web. The web is an upside of technology that Orwell didn't live to see, but I suspect he would find encouraging the spread of knowledge outside the control of the state.\
