There is no need for this kind of slur

Am I imagining things?

Or is there a similarity between the Guardian cartoon of a shadowy top-hatted global speculator and a German cartoon from the 1930s of a shadowy top-hatted global speculator?

I am not in favour of globalisation, but I do not think it is part of a conspiracy by greedy speculators.

You can unpick the economic processes and understand why it is happening and introduce policies to moderate it.

There is no need for this kind of slur, and the Guardian should know better.
