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.

Yes, some jokes are silly and that's why they're funny. Although jokes can be harmful, I don't think that this one was.

Are jokes productive for discussion or discourse? Not necessarily, but I'm not so precious that I'm going to downvote someone for making one.

I mean what's more likely here, a guy made a joke and a load of sensitive Lemmings downvoted them or a guy was literally comparing people that support Palestine with bigots?

I endorse the use of /s so that we can avoid this type of debate, but whenever you mention it you get a load of complaints.
