Is the New York Times trying to transition into a niche porn site?

On Monday, not only did they produce a video featuring topless Femen protesters demanding Trump put more sanctions on Russia but also posted a bizarre animated gay love scene between Trump and Putin.

From NYT:

In Episode Two of “Trump Bites,” above, Mr. Trump’s not-so-secret admiration for President Vladimir Putin of Russia plays out in a teenager’s bedroom, where the fantasies of this forbidden romance come to life.

“Trump Bites” is a series of three short video cartoons that combine real Donald Trump audio clips with hand-drawn fantasy animations by Mr. Plympton. The video cartoons riff on Mr. Trump’s absurd utterances to illustrate the president’s tumultuous inner life of paranoia, narcissism and xenophobia.

Known for his outrageous sense of humor, Mr. Plympton is an iconoclastic animator who creates irreverent, unsettling and at times disturbing cartoons. He is best known for animated shorts such as “How to Kiss” and “Guard Dog,” and for his contributions to MTV’s “Liquid Television” in the early 1990s. Over the decades, his animations were largely apolitical — until now. The Trump presidency inspired him to extend his provocative art to political satire.

These are not stable individuals.

People are saying its "homophobic":

So let me get this 100 percent perfectly clear. Its ok to portray homosexuality as wrong and something shameful, if you are doing so to insult and denigrate President Trump. This article is a hate crime, so much for your tolerance and inclusivity.

Why do you constantly use homosexuality as means to insult? Particularly just men. You use it to emasculate men. I've never seen it done with women, just men. You picked this opinion based on that portrayal.

This is beneath a “news icon,” regardless of WHO the target is.

This is ugly hatred, emotional derangement and hateful, offensive homophobic insult.

It looks like desperation.

I used to respect the NYT. No more.

All it was missing was "Drumpf."
