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.

One of the intresting things we are taught about unconscious bias, is besides people actively discriminating agianst outer groups, most people simply reserve postive emotions for inner groups leading people to be kinda like this without really realizing it.
So remember don't just reconsider your views on natinoalism, but consider everyone else probably has unconscious prejudice agianst others, so don't just attack them for thier views but at least try to educate them.
Then if they continue to be willfully ignorant shrug....
In related news: My local group totally doesn't have an accent. Everyone else does!
I feel like most Midwestern Americans believe this unironically
I'd go further and say most Americans outside the Southeast US think they don't have accents. This is the only time the Southeast has ever topped the charts on anything involving intelligence.
it's true, the true English accent is Scottish English with a hint of polish influence
No, I'm pretty sure it's Black Country that has no accent.
Right, but that's just post-hoc rationalisation by Americans crying that their "culture" breaks down to authoritarianism, slavery, and genocide.
? Inner / Outer group psychology isn't an American thing...it's a human thing. It's seen in slightly diffrent ways across the world but is seen universally
