It doesn't matter who gets pissed off, being pissed off is a choice. The kind of person who gets pissed off by a depiction of a dead paedo deserves to be pissed off, tbh.

I'm not even arguing that the Guardian should have removed their cartoon. But it's still different to invoke antiSemetic tropes to insult a specific person, that it is to simply depict another person.
