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.

I kind of get these kind of comics, but isn't the reality that all of humanity is still in a competition with eachother, and doing all the wrong things gives you more power than doing all the right things, so that's what continues happening.
In these climate debates the reality is that it's a global chicken on the road, we all go toward self annihilation at a steady pace, and the first who flinches and tries to take action will get taken advantage of and ruined. So it's slooooooow talks about doing tiny things and kind of maybe a bit cooperating while noone really wants to, because any advantage they can get over another country will be taken advantage of...
Maybe i'm a bit too pessimistic, but it's my assumption that things work like that, and then all this bullshit suddenly makes sense >_<...
You're absolutely right. We are driven by evolutionary forces like all life on Earth and that's just part of being a living being.
