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.

I dunno', if you ever knew a gossipy bitch in the-before-times, plenty of people were also judgemental assholes assuming the worst about everyone, from all angles and political slantings.
It was just less obvious, because you couldn't go somewhere and read the thoughts from someone you'll never meet back then unless it was published in a book or newspaper.
If you really get to understand humans, it turns out a lot of them genuinely do not have the capacity to judge others as individuals, and genuinely think they're the good guy even while openly shitting on others. Even before the internet.
Note: I'm not saying this to excuse the behavior, but just to say that you cannot avoid it and it is not an invention of the internet. Learning to deal with it healthily is the correct answer.
