- 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.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Limit of two posts per person per day.

MODERATORS
Both sides are getting their clippable audio snippets and dragging around audiences to feel like they are fighting with them.
I truly don't agree that platforming extremists to argue against them for publicity and money is ever worth it. The sides lean against each other to grow larger and these are people who it is in their financial interests to not change their opinion. And religion debates are not productive, those are personal and faith based. Can't argue someone rationally out of something that wasnt rationally entered.
You asked about qnaline, not Tucker.
I was talking about the "playful banter with the most evil people in the world" text when I gave the Tucker Carlson example.
Their religion debates are mostly against evangelicals and biblical literalists, who generally do think that their beliefs are rational, so an in-depth deconstruction is really beneficial, a lot of the time not to the caller but to the impartial layperson viewer.
I understand your criticism here, but also one can't make do without the opposition making some content like this, especially when this sphere is dominated by uneducated right-wingers like Joe Rogan.
I understand fighting fire with fire, but dont mind me while I dont praise the arsonists.
