Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

It's almost like we're watching a historical event where a large democratic nation is quickly turning into an oligarchal dictatorship. Almost like we're dealing with the consequences of anti intellectualism.
Also just because you don't live in America during all this doesn't mean your country is immune to right wing influence.
Dude, here in Europe half the nations are already beholden to some extreme right faction, and the other half are flirting with it.
Our situation is honestly just a hair better and could deteriorate very rapidly.
Like, for example, if Putin makes his move against the Baltics. If that happens we're equally megafucked.
It was oligarch for a while now.
I mean yeah but not to the point of openly ripping the govt apart.
