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.

MODERATORS
What are you on about, mate? This is the same sort of rhetoric you see form the GOP, "Make America great again."
Dude, they literally took the Capitol building in an attempt to prevent the election results from being certified. If the GOP didn't want to back Trump after that I'd respect that. But they fell in line. They're okay with that. Which means they are not okay with democracy. There's no democracy without free elections.
Do you think I'm defending the GOP?
Well you're either defending them or defending tolerance of them. So take your pick.
No, I'm accusing your "things used to be better" rhetoric for being the same as their "make America great again" rhetoric.
