What’s Wrong With Today’s Society Captured In 32 Brutally Honest Illustrations By John Holcroft
Interview With Artist
There are a lot of issues in today's society. Addiction to social media, devaluation of workers, unhealthy lifestyles, and that's just a few of them. A lot of us don't even notice these problems; we either ignore them or don't run into them at all. However, artist John Holcroft tackles them head-on and illustrates the issues of today's world in his satirical and honest art.
John has been illustrating since 1996. He works and lives in the UK. His past clients include Guardian, Telegraph, Times, BBC, and many others. John Holcroft's art looks simplistic, but it hides a deep and complicated meaning. It's pretty amazing how he can portray such serious topics with one simple illustration.

Trumpvoters don't get this because Tweety has convinced them that he's the BEST PRESIDENT EVAH, with a mere 180 000 dead Americans on his record, a destroyed economy and burning cities. Thanks to the tremendous way he mismanaged USA Inc.

You must not have read the CDC updates lately on the death tolls. Only 6% of the "COVID deaths" they reported ONLY had COVID listed as cause of death. That means 94% had at least 2 other causes of death listed. The 2020 death rate is only at 8.8, 2019 the death rate was 8.782 which since 2015 has always gone up at least 1.1% as it did this year. He also cannot send federal help to "burning cities" when the state of the "burning city" refuses their federal actions. The state has to allow federal assistance which they normally all deny for many obvious reasons. Your specific arguments against him are invalid.

wish they were sheep. sheep will run from wolves. to the uncompromised, it's obvious, don is as bad as advertised. w/a little research, a person will find, he's worse. it's there. easy enough to see. but unless it's revealed to them in a way they can accept - it's of little concern. some else is always to blame. it's unfair, untrue, or some other myriad of 'shoot the messenger' rationalization. what is so vexing is that these sound thinking, clear-eyed people will admit in their daily lives that they know little about numerous things. they'll admit they are not always right (most mostly), or know enough about plumbing, car repair, tree trimming, etc - but politics? always on the money. their choice is always in the front. to question that is like calling their grandmother a crook. makes them temperamental. indignant. righteous and pious. and all it will do is get you kicked out of granny's out-on-parole party.

We have lost the concept of free speech. It's a shame that only the loudest voices are free. History is full of these examples of speech repression. As people that have grown up being free, we should stand up for everyone's right to express our opinion.

To paraphrase a joke about doctors, "What's the difference between God and Trump? God doesn't think he's Trump."
We got hold of John to ask him some questions about his art: "I started illustrating professionally in 1996, originally studying graphic design in the early '90s, but the recession made it impossible to find work especially as technology was going through a big change. I decided to illustrate using acrylics on board, which changed to digital in 2000. Having created a few different styles, I settled on my current style in 2010 and have been progressing ever since. I get my inspiration from observing life in general. I’ve always been an odd-ball and seen things differently so I think it shows in my work," said John when asked what inspires him to create and when he started to create art.

John shares what issues in today's world he is most passionate about: "I’m not more passionate about issues than anyone else; however, I don’t like injustices of any kind so I usually focus my concepts on the things most people care about, such as corporate greed, climate change, and politics. If I had the power to change the world I would try to put an end to corrupt governments and corporate giants having control. I would make sure money is put in the right places, i.e.: tackling climate change and I would have a fairer system that cares for ordinary people."

If I had to describe Trump in one word, it would be "corrupt". Forget about his policies. We can agree or disagree with those and fix them later. He's corrupt and is trying to remove democracy because he doesn't care about it, which will not end any better for conservatives or Republicans than for others.

The truth is that planting a sapling doesn't replace the carbon locked in a mature tree. The truth is Trump abandoned the Paris Agreement that sets out a global framework to avoid dangerous climate change by limiting global warming to well below 2°C and pursuing efforts to limit it to 1.5°C. It also aims to strengthen countries' ability to deal with the impacts of climate change and support them in their efforts.

This is true, even adults become depressed from pressures of social media or what they see on other's accounts. The pressure to uphold the same "fun and glamorous life" they see can take a toll.

Climate Emergency And How We Are Dealing With It

I'm VERY angry, this so extremely inaccurate! We're moving slower than snails.
Truth Monster 5 years ago
The secret is that there is very little of real value the US can do, outside of establishing a dictatorship over the world to stop the degradation of critical biomass. Throwing money at corrupt governments to "pwetty pweese no polluty" is wasted. Many countries do not have the luxury or will to worry about the environment. They simply want to survive. So in the US we do theater about the environment. We ban straws, we "recycle". We buy electric cars whose batteries cause environmental nightmares in other countries, use windmills that kill hundreds of thousands of endangered birds and bats each year, use dams which are depopulating our rivers of migratory fish...

I think we should take a step back and stop saying what is wrong and start saying what is. Many of these things are caused by opposing interests and differences in pov. I think wanting to go too fast and too complex is one big underlying problem and combined with an inability to empathize makes it look like others are deliberately trying to take things from you, wen in fact it's just that. Being unable and having too much power. But the thing is, power is given by others to have.
