“Yes, But”: Artist Draws A Series Of Sarcastic Comics That Show How Contradictory Society Is (22 New Pics)
Interview With ArtistNot even a year has passed, and Russian artist Anton Gudim is back on Bored Panda! In today's article, we want to share more of his sarcastic comics from the "YES, BUT" series. Anton is a master of absurdity, irony, and dark humor. His illustrations perfectly capture the ridiculousness of modern society and make fun of something that we have accepted as normal.
Anton Gudim is mostly known for the quirky short paneled comics he shares on Instagram, which now has more than 1 million followers. His newest project "YES, BUT" is similar in the topics, but is different in style, because here, unlike in his other works, Anton posts only two-panel comics. But don't get yourselves tricked! Even though they are shorter, these comics are no less influential. The illustrations touch on topics such as consumerism, people's behavior, ecology and many more. Through the prism of humor and irony, that's how Anton portrays modern society.

In Italy, they use solar energy (also known as clothes lines) to dry their laundry. They don't seem to mind if all their neighbors and passersby find out that they wash their clothes. Apparently, they think that wearing clean clothes, and saving money and protecting the environment, is a good thing.
This is similar to the time a veggie co worker had a go at me for eating a bacon sandwich. I happily interjected her whole "meat is murder" speech to remind her that she was wearing leather boots.

It's not just a concern of eating fish in general, the main issue with this is the absolute havoc overfishing does to aquatic environments, fresh or salt water.
All those instruments but using fake programs to make music. Where's the feeling?!!! Edit: I was joking along the lines of "once more with feeling" I've used programs to compose really awesome stuff but also actual instruments. Summer night jam sessions wouldn't be the same with a program.
I mean... they shouldn't be ashamed if they like their hair :/ {no offense ppl}

These say a lot more about the artist than the society he's supposedly criticizing.
Those were a lot of strawmen, cherry picking, and random problems that most likely only exist in the artist's head
I must be missing something. I didn't get most of these. I feel like the artist is trying to say something but they dont know what.
I'm glad to know I'm not alone in thinking that same way.
