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.

Patriotism is the belief that together we can make this place really lasting and good.
Nationalism is the belief that no place could compare to your nation and every other nation needs to show fealty.
I'm ok with patriotism.
I'm not ok with nationalism.
the problem is with the definition of "this place". a patriot's vision of "this place" is restricted by borders drawn by politicians.
no sane person should ever "be ok" with that extent of tunnel vision. "this place" should extend to the world we all share.
I’d prefer countries, especially the US, not fuck with other countries, regardless of whether their goal is “improving” them or not.
