Caption: AUGUSTA, GA - NOVEMBER 25: In this satirical editorial cartoon titled "Thanksgiving Fight Over Politics" by Rick McKee, published by The Augusta Chronicle via Cagle Cartoons, a chaotic family Thanksgiving dinner scene unfolds with relatives throwing food items like turkey, plates, utensils, and bread at each other across the table, with one family member exclaiming "You Had To Bring Up Politics..." amid the brawl. The cartoon addresses the topic of deep political divisions in American society exacerbating family tensions during holidays, particularly over polarizing issues like MAGA ideology, Project 2025, Gaza conflicts, RFK Jr's views, and conspiracy theories, with the cartoonist conveying that bringing up politics at family gatherings inevitably leads to explosive arguments and ruined celebrations, highlighting the toxic impact of partisan polarization on personal relationships and traditional unity.
