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
And see, that's the problem people complain about. They are doing bad politics by ganging up to the candidate that's gaining support from the people who are looking for someone different. Those people end up in Trump's camp when the Ds can only offer more corporate elites.
Why is that bad politics, but dividing 60% of the democratic centerists amongs Biden, Klob, and Pete to achieve victory good politics?
Aren't you alienating the largest portion of the base who will feel cheated that their candidate only lost because the race was too crowded with centrists?
I think it would be better if the voters decided to gang up on Bernie and compromise with Biden over the others. Or the other candidates didn't run at all. This way they just made a mockery of the election process.
Edit: seriously, think about it. Why are you running at all if you're fine with some other centrist taking over eventually? Just to keep up with the illusion of choice? Stay out of the race and let people see they didn't have a choice in the first place.
So you're against candidates being able to drop out and throw their support behind one of the remaining candidates.
