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.

Always happens in your dreams, lemmy, while your biggest political activism is "trump bad" memes.
In reality, your beloved democratic party are just a different flavor of a corporate bitch.
You need to work hard on starting grass-root movements all across the country to facilitate proper democracy and eventually allow for a civilized political discourse at the parliamentary level where the whole spectrum of opinions is presented representatively.
But, no, ofc "puuuurge elon tomorrow!". And then back to watching YouTube on your couch.
Wasn't the whole moral of The Purge that rich people are insulated from the consequences of their shitty policy. And the only real defense against stocastic violence is community with your fellow man and trust in one another?
"Purge Elon!" is a fiction because Elon is at the center of an enormous, slavishly loyal cult. Meanwhile, folks on Lemmy would slit each others' throats over a bad meme. There's not going to be a line, because everyone in it would be stabbing one another.
I was under the impression that the democrats were pretty much universally hated here and the question was wether or not to hold our collective noses and still vote for them in face of a greater evil or not.
