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
That's the point, the letter of the law means you have to meet a set criteria to prove it. The spirit of the law can look at it and go 'hey you got this donation, and proceed to act in this corporate interest' and see the pattern of abuse is acting against the conceptual idea of not being able to be bribed.
So very easy in other words.
Those are actually very hard to get away with. There's just no direct oversight of the Supreme Court.
And it's not illegal to help constituents. That's literally the purpose of Senators and Representatives in Congress. Your solution would mean that if you donated to AOC and told her "I like your point of view, vote based on that" she would be required to change her vote to the opposite of what you want.
