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.
- Limit of two posts per person per day.
- Bots aren't allowed.
- Banned users will have their posts removed.

That's not wrong but I'm not expecting anyone to forget about the negatives. If you punch 0 babies but you are so worried about causing harm that you're miserable all the time and doing less good as a result, the world is on the whole worse off. It's not a math equation but I would rather someone eats meat if that means they're working to change the industry rather than someone who doesn't eat meat and does nothing. Someone actively working against transphobia and contacting whoever their officials are and canvassing does far more than their $20 does.
I'm just saying there's no possible way to exist without doing harm, anything you can cut out you should, but if it's to the point where it's stopping you from doing good in the world, that might be the line you should stop at.
