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.

You keep going on about me providing proof but you are the one making a bold statement. You disprove the one example you provide because that's clearly caused by the healthcare situation in general in that country.
So how do you expect me to provide proof of healthy and normal non-profit companies not being evil? That's no news, there's no article saying "company is ethical and normal".
You claim that non-profit companies are exploitative by design, but any proof you provide will always be anecdotal. I told you from personal experience that I have seen multiple that are just fine. My proof will also always be anecdotal. But I'm not the one making a claim about the entire system of non-profit organisations, I'm saying that although it might sometimes be exploitative, I know it's not always from personal experience.
As you're generalising the entire system of non-profit organisations, the burden of proof is on you.
Right, keep circlejerking to yourself and company, bud.
You keep coming back to the circlejerk, but i do genuinely want to understand what you want me to provide. If I'm wrong, I want to know why so I can learn from it and that's not sarcasm.
This is my entire point though, it's not shitty by design, it's the situation around it that can create a toxic environment that promotes abuse. You stated initially that non-profits are worse by design and exploitative, and all I'm saying is that this is not true in the entire world.
To emphasize what I mean, you state "it's all shit" and then go on to say "but only in a country with shit healthcare". This is exactly what I'm trying to say.
