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.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Social commentary in comics? Can you imagine THE HORROR if Scott Adams criticized people who are bosses?
I'm all deep offend.
Golly-gee... Those old warner / disney cartoons drawing those other silly cultures we were at war with were only social commentary! Whys everyone upset!
I'd like to think that people have the slightest ability to discern the obvious parallel here. But let's feign ignorance and say its okay to generalize an entire sex because its only a comic / cartoon / opinion bro!
... Go on. Tell me it's different.
WTF are you on about? The only rage-baiter in here is you! If fact, you are a master of rage baiting. A real masteragebaiter, so to speak.
The artist doesn't have to conform to any of your standards. Just turn it off if you don't like it. The rest of your whine fest is pathetic work the refs nonsense, like your opinion matters when there's no score kept and the speech is free.
I admire the effort it took to really wedge that in. Not many would attempt that.
I was pretty clear there. If you want to discuss it maybe turn your faux-offense down a notch eh?
You are literally making my point for me. Its almost comical. I drew a parallel to offensive media in the past disparaging multiple demographics... And that's precisely the argument those people made. Just dont watch it. Get thicker skin. Etc.
I'd hope you see why this statement has ... Em ... Issues. If not let me pose a simple question. If somone made a comic where the sexes were reversed here... I don't even need to imagine the moral outrage in the comments. So in effect you are implicitly saying it's okay in only one direction? Am I getting that right? But yes. Wtf am I on about... Indeed.
