AS is a certifiable POS
they usually don't need to be explained.

but i do recall that when the new yorker ran a controversial cover with a cartoon of obama and his wife doing a terrorist "fist bump", him in islamic dress and her with a 70's angela davis fro, the artist was all over the media explaining the cartoon was intended to mock the conservative media's idea that "bumping fists" was related to terrorism.

if either the post or the artist have an explanation, the clock is ticking.
