Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
Rules
-
π Be Nice!
- Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
-
ποΈ Community Standards
- Comics should be a full story, from start to finish, in one post.
- Posts should be safe and enjoyable by the majority of community members, both here on lemmy.world and other instances.
- Any comic that would qualify as raunchy, lewd, or otherwise draw unwanted attention by nosy coworkers, spouses, or family members should be tagged as NSFW.
- Moderators have final say on what and what does not qualify as appropriate. Use common sense, and if need be, err on the side of caution.
-
𧬠Keep it Real
- Comics should be made and posted by real human beans, not by automated means like bots or AI. This is not the community for that sort of thing.
-
π½οΈ Credit Where Credit is Due
- Comics should include the original attribution to the artist(s) involved, and be unmodified. Bonus points if you include a link back to their website. When in doubt, use a reverse image search to try to find the original version. Repeat offenders will have their posts removed, be temporarily banned from posting, or if all else fails, be permanently banned from posting.
- Attributions include, but are not limited to, watermarks, links, or other text or imagery that artists add to their comics to use for identification purposes. If you find a comic without any such markings, it would be a good idea to see if you can find an original version. If one cannot be found, say so and ask the community for help!
-
π Post Formatting
- Post an image, gallery, or link to a specific comic hosted on another site; e.g., the author's website.
- Meta posts about the community should be tagged with [Meta] either at the beginning or the end of the post title.
- When linking to a comic hosted on another site, ensure the link is to the comic itself and not just to the website; e.g.,
β Correct: https://xkcd.com/386/
β Incorrect: https://xkcd.com/
-
π¬ Post Frequency/SPAM
- Each user (regardless of instance) may post up to five (5 π) comics a day. This can be any combination of personal comics you have written yourself, or other author's comics. Any comics exceeding five (5 π) will be removed.
-
π΄ββ οΈ Internationalization (i18n)
- Non-English posts are welcome. Please tag the post title with the original language, and include an English translation in the body of the post; e.g.,
SΓ, por favor [Spanish/EspaΓ±ol]
- Non-English posts are welcome. Please tag the post title with the original language, and include an English translation in the body of the post; e.g.,
-
πΏ Moderation
- We are human, just like most everybody else on Lemmy. If you feel a moderation decision was made in error, you are welcome to reach out to anybody on the moderation team for clarification. Keep in mind that moderation decisions may be final.
- When reporting posts and/or comments, quote which rule is being broken, and why you feel it broke the rules.
Banned Artists
The following artists are banned from the community.
- Jago
- Stonetoss
- GPrime85
It should be noted that when you make reports, it is your responsibility to provide rational reasoning why something should be removed. Saying it simply breaks community rules is not always good enough.
Web Accessibility
Note: This is not a rule, but a helpful suggestion.
When posting images, you should strive to add alt-text for screen readers to use to describe the image you're posting:
Another helpful thing to do is to provide a transcription of the text in your images, as well as brief descriptions of what's going on. (example)

Both parties are predators, I'm not against voting for liberals because of some intellectual moral abstract reason, it's because it normalizes the bad things they're doing, and it tells them that they can just get away with going right. WHEN DOES THIS SHIT END? When Democrats become literally identical to Republicans but are polite about it when they deport people or defund trans healthcare? 100% Hitler pedophile vs. 99% Hitler 100% pedophile vote blue no matter who!
Let's have a reminder of what this was like 6 years ago. How much lesser evil liberals are capable of gleefully endorsing? Let's open up the archives...
Normalization is not equivalent to speedrunning.
This is a bullshit comparison, especially because Nazi Germany had a far closer equivalent of the SPD to the democratic party.
So it's the SPD/sopade vs Nazis if anything.
If you're going to make Hitler allegories at least keep the ratios accurate. Instead you're making shit up because reality doesn't match your conclusion.
As for your first image, at best you're trying to assert that the quoted Twitter user is what all people who vote for democrats think. Which is dumb as shit if you give it even a second of thought.
How many protestors did Biden arrest for protesting the genocide he was arming and funding?
This is a non sequitur.
Not at all?
Biden arresting people protesting the Palestinian genocide, while horifying, does not equate to the actions of Trump. It's a non sequitur.
then wtf does it equate to? The Palestinian genocide was worse than anything Trump might have done to Americans and both presidents gave full support to it.
Both Trump and Biden have made efforts to silence people opposing the Palestinian genocide, and directly contribute to the genocide.
Trump and the republican party have done more on top of that, which makes them significantly worse.
You've completely lost the point. You would vote for any arbitrary percent Hitler, 200% 1000%, is defensive as long as the other party has a higher Hitler percentage.
No, I would not. You don't know what you're talking about.
You. Are. Literally. Advocating. For. Voting. For. A party. Guilty. Of Genocide.
Not like 20 or 50 years ago, last election cycle, lol
It's literally fascism, big guy, you just don't see it as a big deal because blue, lol
Both Trump and Biden are fascists. You don't know what you're talking about.
The difference is Trump is speedrunning it.
So you're advocating for voting for a fascist party, lol.
That strips it from the context, so no.
So you're not advocating to vote for the democrats?
So you're not advocating that people go for a wank, do nothing, and let the U.S. walk further into fascism?
No, Im advocating for taking back your government from the fascist rapist pedophile capitalist elite. Let the dictatorship of the proletariat get a chance.
See how easy it is to be morally consistent?
