Claytoonz vs. Ben Garrison

 https://claytoonz.com/2020/12/14/trumplican-brains/

A cartoonist named Clay Jones who calls himself 'Claytoonz' has criticized me many times. Normally I ignore such chuckleheads, but he has also been lying about me, so let me set the record straight.

I do not draw anti-Semitic or racist cartoons. Now, I do understand that folks on the far left reflexively hurl such smears toward anyone remotely conservative. It's to be expected. However, this young man presents himself as a 'journalist,' and I want to remind him that making up narratives out of whole cloth that don't align with reality is not journalism. 

For example, he recently stated that I applauded Trump for the vaccine rollout. Wrong. Never said it. I'm against vaccines altogether. I've disagreed with the president on many things and I've penned cartoons sharply critical of him--and I'm against his push for an early vaccine for COVID-19. End of story. Cased closed. 

Are editorial cartoonists really 'journalists' as Mr. Toonz claims? In a way we are. We want to convey the truth to the public. We can do investigative journalism to find that truth--something most employed journalists are no longer doing. Nowadays they merely parrot propaganda handed to them by their mega-billionaire owners and the CIA. Mostly, cartoonists express strong opinions on the news. A fair and balanced cartoon that tries to tell all sides of any issue is destined to be a flop.

Regardless, ClayToonz can call himself whatever he likes--I don't care. Many others don't care, either. Despite being syndicated, despite his quest for awards and validation, and despite his bragging about being in mainstream publications such as the Los Angeles Times and on CNN, he has not garnered as much interest as he apparently expected. Like me he's an independent cartoonist and I'm sure he works hard at his quest for fame and fortune by means of editorial cartooning. If fame and fortune truly are his prime motivation, then he has the wrong mindset because he's basing success on the wrong values. I did not start out drawing cartoons for fame and fortune and in fact, for a long while they cost me money and trolls tarnished my reputation. I drew the cartoons out of a desire to ring alarm bells. I began drawing the cartoons because I saw it as my patriotic duty to help our Republic. I don't want my country to continue its slide toward globalism and socialism. 

Thanks to the ADL's libel I could not get syndicated. Mr. Toonz apparently had no problem getting syndicated--good for him. Yet he remains resentful because grrrgraphics.com has far more twitter followers than he does. My cartoons are seen by far more people than what the average employed and well-paid cartoonist receives. Clay complains about me putting labels on my cartoons (an American tradition) as well as me being a 'propagandist' simply because I balance out the Trump Derangement Syndrome omnipresent in his own work and the cartoons of his leftist peers. Mostly, though, it boils down to jealousy:

"Garrison has over 230,000 followers on Twitter who are just as insane (to be fair, a lot of those followers may be people laughing at him for the wrong reasons). I have a little over 9,000 and I’m a real boy….I mean cartoonist. You can have concerns about the virus while not believing it’ll plant a chip inside you. The most absurd thing is, these people believing in the tracking device probably all have cell phones which do track you. Or at the very least, they’re complaining about tracking devices on social media. If you’re on Twitter, you made tracking easy.-- "ClayToonz

Mr. Toonz says it himself. He's jealous! He even took the time to criticize me in a cartoon, which cracked me up. (see cartoon shown in post)

Despite the endless insults, lies, copyright infringement, trolls, and libel I've faced, my wife and I kept working hard to be able to make a living via cartooning. We're starting to succeed because our message resonates with a great many Americans who believe our constitutional Republic is worth saving. I am a real cartoonist. So is Clay, but message is predictably and consistently simple, overly-insistent, and very obvious, but the style of his cartoons may be what's holding him back. He draws in a flat manner with electric colors. If he drew with the sophistication of, say David Horsey, he'd have far more followers, but Clay's work is harsh and over-exaggerated so much that what he's drawing can be hard to decipher. His Trump is unrecognizable as a human being.

Clay has his own style and that's fine. But if he really wants to get better and evolve he'll need to stand out from the regular crowd of lefty artists who have long dominated the editorial cartooning world. You know, the usual names who win Pulitzers and then become judges and award them to their friends, circle jerk-like. Mostly, ClayToonz needs to ween himself from the lies spewed by so-called news outfits such as CNN. Maybe he'll develop a more original voice and eventually even garner more followers.

I wish him luck.

HUFFINGTON POST FAKE NEWS RELEASE

Read this claptrap from HuffPo:


"Politico reported Wednesday that Ben Garrison, a fringe conservative cartoonist, had been uninvited from the event after reporters dug up his anti-Semitic cartoon depicting the Rothschild family and billionaire investor George Soros ― all Jews ― as puppet masters. Critics called out event organizers for including Garrison in the first place. What did it say about the White House that an outspoken racist was invited to represent conservative social media?"

1. I'm an independent cartoonist. 'Fringe' is a pejorative word designed to make me sound like a weirdo.

2. You didn't have to dig up that cartoon. We have it on our site. We aren't ashamed of it. We aren't hiding anything. It took no digging to find it, you lazy liars.

3. I criticize the Rothschilds for inflicting their fractional reserve/central banking debt money on us all--and that includes hard working Jews. If I were anti-Semitic, I would have labeled that hand "Jews." You and Politico are libeling me, HuffPo.

4. Why did you say 'all Jews' when you are alluding to only two of them. Shouldn't it be 'both' instead of all? You did that intentionally for drama and to aggrandize the false outrage.

5. "Outspoken racist." Please show me where I said anything racist, you lying liars.

Social Media Summit After Party

Here's a photo from the party held in a banquet room at the Trump International Hotel. I met nearly everyone here except for the woman in the center with the fancy dress. I think she's a singer. I didn't want to wear my hat, but Tina said it was part of my meme and I should keep it on, and as it turned out you wouldn't know I'm here if it weren't for my hat standing out. Anyway, there were a lot of young people there who were very smart, well spoken and many looked like movie stars to me. The guy with his thumbs up looked a lot like Sammy Davis Jr.

These mostly young people give me hope for the future. Some know more about what's going on than I do. 

The man on the very far left made sure I was invited. He's the famous meme master 'Carpe Donktum' and I gave him a proof copy of our coffee table book that originally I had intended to give the president. He was very happy to get it. I talked to the man in the red tie from "Mad Liberals" and he's a freaking genius at putting together meme videos.

I had a good time and toward the end a man who hadn't been at the party came suddenly came up to me and told me he loved my cartoons. He was associated with the White House in some capacity (my addled brain no longer remembers his name) and he told me that the president himself wanted me at the summit. Then things went awry, but oh well. It was still nice to hear since I wasn't sure the president even knew who I was.

OH-the guy seen left of me in the photo is Mark Dice. I did a commissioned cartoon for him once. He was fun to talk to as well. The young lady in the white shirt is Millie Weaver from InfoWars.

No, I'm Not Anti-Semitic!

I’m back from my whirlwind trip to our nation’s capital. As my supporters know, I was invited to visit the White House to join my peers, otherwise known as ‘influencers’ on the Internet and discuss the ongoing and increased censorship of conservative voices. Then I got censored from the summit on censorship.

Some have said I brought it on myself by announcing the invitation I received from the president. I can’t disagree with that assessment now, but at the time we at GrrrGraphics were bursting with excitement. We wanted to share the news with those who have helped us. After all, our supporters were the ones who would make such a trip possible. There would have been no way I could afford to go without them, and it was an expensive trip. 

My old suit was 20 years old and I could no longer fit in it. So I bought a nice new suit and new shoes. I had to buy plane tickets and since they weren’t purchased well in advance they weren’t cheap—even though I got the cheapest, ‘basic economy’ tickets I could find. (It would also mean that later I could not cancel and get my money back). I was going to stay at the cheapest hotel I could find too, but my wife correctly stated that if I’m going to see the president I needed to stay at his hotel. So I did. It cost well over $300 per night. At the end, it cost us a small fortune. The taxi fare to and from Dulles Airport was very expensive. After I arrived at the hotel I was hungry and so got myself a steak dinner. Along with one martini added in, the tab came to $88. Plus tip. On my final night there I decided to scrimp and just eat an appetizer. That came to $28 for a shrimp cocktail containing four shrimp, but at least it was artfully presented.

The expense would have been worth it had I been able to see the president in person as planned. Alas, it was not to be. The ADL made sure of that. The Anti Defamation League is an organization designed to thwart bigotry and hate toward Jewish people. They try to punish anyone who might express sentiments by means of public condemnation and shame. In other words, their mission to end ‘hate speech’ is brought about by controlling free speech. They’re now an official censor. How in the hell did that happen?

Out of all the cartoons I’ve drawn over the last ten years, the ADL focussed on a single cartoon drawn by me. It was commissioned by Mike Cernovich, who helped us out a lot during a time when we needed help the most. After he published the cartoon, he immediately received flak and as a result he cropped out the controlling hand at the top. Since it was his cartoon it was his prerogative, but the uncropped version remains on our website. I will not apologize for it, because there’s nothing to apologize for. It’s also featured in my latest coffee table book, which will be sent out later this summer to all those who bought it in advance.

The cartoon was used by the ADL as ‘proof’ of my ‘blatant anti-Semitism.’ Since I was going to the White House the biased corporate media soon piled on and breathlessly repeated the smear, and the word ‘blatant.’ It wasn’t blatant and it wasn’t anti-Semitic. It was anti-central banking and globalism. Regardless, Jake Tapper did a gleeful tap dance as he played the ‘Gotcha!’ game. The fake news media made a huge something out of literally nothing.

As a result, a White House representative called me. They were wondering if my presence would be too much of a ‘distraction.' I didn’t pick up on their cue at first. “Oh no, don’t worry about it, it’s just a tempest in a teapot—I’m still happy to be coming.” Silly me. I didn’t pick up their real intent. I was being asked to voluntarily withdraw so the president wouldn’t be seen as the one who kicked me out. They wanted me to kick myself out for the good of the summit and so I did. My only proviso to them was that it all be kept silent. I would not tell anyone and the White House wouldn’t mention I wasn’t going to be there either. The media could all twist in their collectivist wind. 

But that’s not what happened. Instead they quickly caught wind that I wasn’t going and gleefully howled about their victory. Did they find out from someone at the White House? That’s what I thought at first and I felt betrayed and angry. I was on CNN International News. It was said Trump was doing the right thing by banning an ‘obvious’ anti-Semitic person such as me. Later the White House denied they leaked the story and that they were engaged in ‘fake news’ speculation. Really? What an obfuscated mess! My reputation was trampled upon mercilessly. Like that scene played by Al Pacino in “Scarface,” I was the ‘bad guy.’

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dW37AGZ0Pj0&fbclid=IwAR2RFOYQ_Hcz2x-Y8ZmrTBZ7JRXaG8TEt2I7zN0Xyv_6vBaqaE8lqwp-gQ8

"What you lookin' at? You're all a bunch of fuckin' assholes. You know why? You don't have the guts to be what you wanna be. You need people like me. You need people like me so you can point your fuckin' fingers and say, "That's the bad guy.”

The ADL needs people like me. They need to point a hectoring finger of attention to someone who they can claim is an anti-Semitic monster. Someone who is a purveyor of hate and potential harm to Jewish people. They capitalize on that fear to draw in millions of dollars in donations, which helps bring them power and more influence. I was held up as their ‘bad guy.’ Their evidence? I labeled a sinister hand with the word, “Rothschilds.”

I put that same word on another cartoon. The ‘R’s were featured in a vast swamp that also showed President Trump, who was just starting to drain it. Why didn’t they focus on that cartoon? Because it portrayed Trump in a positive light. Instead, they riveted attention toward the classic puppet/string metaphor, which they claimed in and of itself was anti-Semitic. This link will show you their take on it:

https://www.adl.org/blog/anti-semitism-used-in-attack-against-national-security-adviser-h-r-mcmaster

This is the supposed evidence that made me into their ‘bad guy.’ They’re wrong. If I were really anti-Semitic, I would have written the word “Jews” on the hand. I didn’t. I don’t go after people based on their race or religion. I criticize people for what they do. What did the Rothschilds do? For centuries, they’ve dominated global finance. It’s a family that pushed a globalist agenda while manipulating countries and currencies. They’ve urged countries to go to war with each other, while profiting on both sides. The Rothschilds virtually invented central and fractional reserve banking and were instrumental in the formation of the Federal Reserve debt money system. JP Morgan did their bidding. 

They say the ‘R' family today has dissipated their wealth and are no longer a factor. If that’s the case, why all the fuss? It is said we know who is really running the show when we find out whom we cannot discuss. We can’t talk about the Rothschilds. They are protected by a red shield—their ‘anti-Semitism’ accusation shield. 

It’s hard to find out what the Rothschilds are currently worth. An internet search would show that the ‘R’ family has little wealth today. They’ve fallen on hard times! Stop attacking those poor people! In actuality, a small number of families control 40 percent of the world’s wealth. You can’t mention these families without getting attacked. I suspect the ‘R’s’ are still trillionaires, but their wealth is hidden by trust funds and such. Regardless, the cartoon represents the globalist central bankers that pull the strings of Soros and it’s getting to the point now where you can no longer mention George’s last name in a negative light without getting called anti-you-know-who. 

I’m not anti-Semitic and I’ve never drawn a single anti-Semitic cartoon. The Rothschilds are public and historical figures that should not be immune to criticism. Their debt money system hurts us all—including average and hard working Jews! If the ADL wants to imagine sinister things about me and claim my cartoons are dogwhistles for anti-Semitism, then they should state that as opinion, not fact. Unfortunately their opinion is treated as fact by the mainstream media. As a result, I was viciously libeled. It has cost me my reputation and a lot of money. It also cost me a chance to see the president.

Getting Fired for Free Speech:

The one with my face pasted over it got a Canadian professor fired.

I want to get this out there and help set the record straight. There is a hate screed box still circulating on the Internet with my name and face on it. These hate screed boxes were created by a young troll named Joshua Goldberg. He tormented me for years using the handle 'European88.' European88's activity stopped dead cold the moment he was arrested by the FBI.

Regardless, bad journalism abounds. Now publications such as the 'Daily' Mail run the photo as if it's the real McCoy. That way they can run ooo--scary images of bad men who are Nazi bullies. That attracts readers. If I'm libeled and defamed, who cares? It would be so easy for them to find the truth--it's only a few keystrokes away. But no. They'd rather run juicy stuff about hate spewers who need to be shut down. It doesn't phase them that what they post is a complete and utter lie. Shame on you, 'Daily Mail.'

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3811993/Facebook-anti-Semitism-row-site-automatically-translates-anti-Nazi-post-vile-ATTACK-Jews.html

Shame on the college who fired a professor because someone posted this same image on his Facebook page. That professor had nothing to do with the post or the image. Besides, what the professor says in his off hours is his free speech--you're free to agree or disagree with whatever he might say. OH--but I forgot. Free speech doesn't exist in Canada.

Free speech is also going away in America. Say the wrong thing and you could also get fired. Political correctness and the SJWs will do their best to make it happen. Do you disagree with the climate change narrative constantly pounded into you by globalists? Do you question Sandy Hook or 9-11? YOU'RE FIRED! First they demonize you and call you a conspiracy theorist; then you're hounded out of work.

People should not lose their jobs because they have opinions considered controversial. We may not like what they say, but if their free speech isn't protected, all free speech will eventually be lost. We saw what happened when Hillary decided a cartoon frog named Pepe was 'racist.' Suddenly he was banned and anyone who ever posted him was also considered a bad person. She should not get to decide these things and if such a tyrant is elected president, expect more of our liberties to be stepped on by her. If she gets more power, expect more people to be fired for questioning government narratives.

This already happened to another professor in Florida, James Tracy. He was fired for merely asking questions and engaging in debate.

I also lost a lot of work due to the constant smearing and trash that still exists on the Internet.

So here's the image I'm publishing to help set the record straight. I hope it shows up on Google searches. Maybe the slanted journalists will see it and feel some small modicum of guilt. Ha ha--of course that won't happen.

Humpty Hillary:

Humpty Hillary has had a great fall. Many of them. She passed out and got a concussion that resulted in a blood clot and many other health issues. (Seizures? Parkinson’s? Dementia?) She’s also falling in the polls. She has obvious health problems that she is unable to keep hidden. She has ethics and criminal problems. She claims she couldn’t remember deleting her email due to her concussion. It’s now been revealed that she smashed an iPad and Blackberries with a hammer. To hide evidence, of course. That in and of itself is criminal. Alas, she’s above the law. All of this disqualifies her from being the president. If she was too sick to know what she was doing, it disqualifies her. If she’s lying about it all, that disqualifies her. Her disastrous actions when she was Secretary of State disqualifies her.

She’s an ill criminal who is unfit for the presidency.

As her allies try to keep her together, she is falling apart before our eyes. Cough cough!

Hillary's Pickle Jar: Dank Meme:

She's in a pickle. Sure, she opened a pre-opened pickle jar on a talk show to 'prove' she was healthy. We know it had already been opened because we heard no 'pop.'

Hillary wouldn't be able to open the pickle jar I drew. Now available!

Hillary's Boogeymen:

Hillary’s recent speech smacked of deceit, delusion and desperation. The three ‘D's. 

Hillary and the globalists are losing their ability to brainwash the public. People are gravitating toward truth tellers and away from mainstream news, political correctness and social justice warriors. Hillary tried to scare people back into the fold by the use of scolding, smearing and virtue posturing. She has no virtue. After all, she attacked Obama racially in 2008 and also praised the ex-KKK leader, Robert Byrd. She even kissed him.

Your silly speech didn’t work, Hillary. It only made you appear demented. I guess that makes four ‘D's.

Hillary as President:

This is what it might look like!

Hillary Lying:

A few months back I drew a cartoon using this theme. I decided to do something similar (rendering in Adobe Illustrator) for a t-shirt. It's now available. (Hey, I have to make a living, right?)  --Ben Garrison

Brexit Needs to Happen

It's past time the EU breaks up. It's time to end these vile institutions that are designed to enslave humanity. End the UN. End the IMF/Federal Reserve central banking oligarchy. And while we're at it, round up all the Bilderberg attendees and put them all in prison.

Here's a good message I came across last night that aligns with my views:

Millions of Taxpayers worked for a lifetime, earning and saving for retirement, only to have it stolen in 2008 by criminals on Wall Street. This money was not lost or destroyed. It was stolen. By deception, lies of omission, and outright lies, illegal collusion, insider trading pump & dumps, and 101 other means not yet revealed, the life savings of millions of Taxpayers was stolen. These are not baseless accusations. The testimony of Alayne Fleischmann is sufficient to convict JP Morgan of criminal behavior that was commonly practiced by its peers. Overall, trillions of Dollars were stolen from millions of Taxpayers.

The injured parties demand full restitution, since this savings is their sole means of survival. Given the unreasonable disparity in wealth between those who control and directed the criminal actions, versus the victims, restitution is justified. The amount owed is due to the extent of the fraud.

Due to the fraud described above, each Taxpayer is owed at least one million Dollars. Social Security is an appropriate mechanism by which to return the stolen wealth.

Do what Iceland did. Repudiate the debt they create out of thin air. Kick the banker-aligned politicians out. Kick the bankers out or put them in prison. End their sick and immoral system of money. Make them pay back hard working Americans. They have been stealing from us for over 100 years now. Time for pay back! Stop importing millions of people who do not want to assimilate into western culture--a culture of freedom worth preserving.

Maybe Brexit will be the start of this trend!

My ebook will be released soon

I've gone for months without any commercial art assignments, but lately I have been lucky enough to have several going on at once. So I've been busy and that's good. I need to make a living.

I've also received some very nice responses about my printed book and I greatly appreciate that, especially since I'm not a writer (and I'm a terrible editor). I have mailed out approximately 70 books for free to those who sent me a polite email asking about them. I've also sent out many to friends and family. I'm just about all out of my promotional copies. To all of you who have written me with encouragement, I appreciate your sentiments very much and I'd much rather pay postage on the books than give money to lawyers. That said, I'd like to bring some of the worst offenders to justice, but that may take a while still.

I will definitely get the book uploaded to Amazon sometime next week. It will be a lot cheaper than the printed book, and it will also contain updates and more cartoons. I'm sorry to say I won't be able to autograph any of those copies.

The book was cathartic and it marks a turning point in my attitude. I no longer worry about the attacks and I've become so calloused that sometimes I even find myself laughing. The entire 'Zyklon Ben' meme has officially jumped the shark and now the trolls are starting to realize I'm 'untouchable.' In fact, I got a chuckle out of seeing this peculiar painting--done by a young artist who is also using my name on Google:

He actually took the time and energy to paint my portrait. Sure, I don't like the swastika and it's silly, but I smiled regardless. This only illustrates just how far and ridiculous the entire meme has gotten and now that it's impossible for me to be angry about it...well, it surely signals an end point to the trolling.

I like how the artist captured my expression here. People have remarked that my expression is always the same. They may have a point!

It's been quite a journey and I've learned a lot about trolls, memes and even a little about anime. Someone sent me a very interesting explanation about Bitcoin and I confess I've never been able to figure out exactly how that works. He explained it clearly and succinctly. I now wish I had mentioned it in my book. Five years ago I was naive and ignorant about the chan boards and those who posted on them, but I've discovered that there are many good people there. (Of course, many are very obnoxious, too). My ebook alludes to this in the epilogue.

Writing is very difficult. Writers hone their craft by daily practice and through years of learning and dedication. To become a good writer, one most possess a complete and resolute devotion--similar to musicians who spend a lifetime improving their skill. I don't have that kind of time and I'd rather produce art with what time remains. My attempt at writing a book instilled within me renewed admiration for good writers. It's very hard work. It's more difficult than I had ever imagined, but at least I can say I did it and now I can move on.

Thanks to everyone who bought the funny coffee mugs recently, and when I get the time I plan on doing a few more. The operator of 8chan is a tough guy who can take the flak and if he can, then so can I. I especially want to thank Tina who has been helping me monitor things while I've been busy cranking out the commercial art. 

More soon! --Ben Garrison

OK, it's back on: ROGUE CARTOONIST

My book will be published after all. Look for it on Amazon and elsewhere in a couple of weeks.

Bear in mind I have no publisher. I'm my own publisher. I had to fork over a small fortune to get a modest book filled with expensive color plates printed. I'd love to sell the book cheap, but it can't happen and I won't get much in the way of royalties, either. It's a money-losing venture. Then again, I never drew these cartoons to make money. I've lost a LOT of money doing them. I've lost a lot of time removing libel.

Thanks again to all of you who wrote me with your encouragement. If I can, I will send you a free signed copy after they're printed.

Ben Garrison, libertarian

I'm reposting this cartoon to help it gain some traction over the trolls' version. If you type in 'Ben Garrison cartoons,' the defaced version shows up and this authentic one does not. So--anyone typing my name + cartoons sees an ugly, anti-Semitic and disgustingly racist cartoon with my name affixed to it. It's libel and defamation, but hey--the trolls have the advantage. They are anonymous and can do whatever they want without any consequences whatsoever. They can destroy an honest man's reputation for shits and giggles. All I can do is counteract their attacks with the truth. Here's the truth right here: The original cartoon.

Another cartoon that the trolls love to destroy. THIS is the real one:

and this one

and this one too

another one
