Ben Garrison
Benjamin R. Garrison is an American alt-right political cartoonist and artist. His cartoons are popular with the alt-right and with believers in the QAnon conspiracy theory, because they depict these ideologies approvingly and promote them. A number of his cartoons have been controversial; they have been widely characterized as sexist, racist, Islamophobic, anti-vaccine and antisemitic by various media commentators, including by the Anti-Defamation League. They have also been criticized for attempting to deny climate change, promoting attempts to overturn the 2020 United States presidential election, and opposing the ”deep state”. His cartoons often lionize American conservative figures and politicians such as former President Donald Trump and Rand Paul, and demonize liberal, moderate, and Never Trump movement figures such as President Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton. Some alt-right activists have edited his comics to incorporate antisemitic content, including the antisemitic "Happy Merchant" caricature.
