A political cartoon and currently the “memes”, are made for the purpose of conveying editorial commentary on politics, politicians, and current events. These publications play a fundamental role in the political discourse of a society that must hang on to freedom of speech and of the press.
A political cartoon and a meme are a way of expressing situations both in metaphorical and satirical language. It may point out the contexts, problems, and discrepancies of a political situation.
