My Mate Money: Cartoonist Onan Hiroshi skewers My Mate Nate without saying a word

Oops, he did it again. Bangkok-based political and social cartoonist Onan Hiroshi had another message for his 68,000 Facebook fans this week. And, like many of his cartoon musings, this one has (and needs) no words.

The subject of his skewering doesn’t even appear in the frame but no one would have any trouble guessing that this is a comment on much-maligned YouTuber My Mate Nate.

The dude has been at the center of a(nother) scandal this week after forcing his cats to fight a scorpion and filming it while laughing like a madman.

He appears to be laughing alone lately, since inciting the wrath of famed Kingdom of Tigers cat lady celeb Nutch Prasopsin, who circulated a petition that got over 130,000 signatures.

Dude is now being investigated on charges of animal cruelty.

Onan’s on-point drawing simply shows a happy cat face, plus a scary scorpion, plus a cell phone in a farang hand. These elements equal a fat stack of baht.

Commenters said, “Why this display of cruel and sadistic behavior is so popular is a very troubling commentary on society,” “clickbait Nate,” and the ever-popular “I hate Nate.”
