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.

Don’t forget all the people of the world who sit back and laugh at the suffering of millions of people just because the leaders they can’t control do bad shit. Getting pleasure out of watching people suffer is wrong.

My brother in Christ, what do you mean by that can't control? Women, minorities, poors, olds voted for someone who's going to take away their healthcare, deport them or their friends and families, and wreck the economy.

These people literally had option to deny him that power. I don't think there's going to be any such option in near future.

Pretty sure they mean non-Americans who can’t vote in our elections.

Correct. I mean anyone laughing at another country because it’s going to shit is a bad person. I don’t laugh at the Russian people. I laugh at the government. The average person is kept powerless for a reason.

MAGA party explicitly mentioned denaturalization during the campaigns. That means Americans who were immigrants or were born to immigrants.

How many of those are Trump voters/non-voters, we don't know but safe to assume there's plenty of such idiots.

However, there are illegal immigrants in USA. They love Trump and his rhetoric about illegal immigrants, not realizing he's talking about them.

"I’m an immigrant, and I love Trump,” said Alex, a day laborer who has been undocumented since he came to the U.S. from Nicaragua 28 years ago.

Fernando Pineda, a 52-year-old undocumented immigrant from El Salvador who also works as a mover for U-Haul, said he’s ambivalent about Trump’s win because he feels protected by San Francisco’s status as a sanctuary city, meaning it does not coordinate with ICE to deport undocumented immigrants.

At this point apathy or schadenfreude is the only option left because these people are beyond reach or help.
