Charlie Hebdo publishes second controversial cartoon against Celeste Amarilla

The French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo has once again targeted Paraguayan legislator Celeste Amarilla with a controversial cartoon, marking the second consecutive day the publication has focused on the politician.

The latest illustration, signed by cartoonist Félix, depicts Amarilla in her seat at the National Congress. The black humor piece portrays her with her skull open, filled with fecal matter and swarming flies, a stark visual commentary on her recent international humiliation following her criticism of French footballer Kylian Mbappé.

The accompanying text mimics a statement from Amarilla, satirically turning her own social media rhetoric against her. The cartoon's caption reads: "Can racism ever be extradited from the heads of sons of bitches?" This is interpreted as the magazine's opinion on her thoughts after making discriminatory remarks against Mbappé.

This marks an unprecedented recurrence for Paraguayan politics, with Amarilla facing two consecutive days of critical cartoons from a prominent and controversial media outlet. The previous day's cartoon played on words, questioning, "What is round and contains as much air as a soccer ball? The head of Paraguayan senator Celeste Amarilla," implying her arguments were empty.
