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.

Yeah, I don't know why we glorify military service. It's just exploiting people to enforce exploitation overseas at this point
But even aside from that, I feel like this is in bad taste... They just finished fucking over all the trans people in the military. The tone is like telling someone "you're welcome here" as they're lying there after being thrown out
It's like saying "well, I believe you're an American" as they're put on the plane. Just doesn't seem like the right thing to say in that moment
Because we should glorify service to the people, and service to the state can be and sometimes is an abstract a form of that. Same reason we pay teachers in pats on the back instead of money.
Is it, though? Or is it just servicing particular monetary interests?
Previously yes. They used to get deployed around here to help in natural emergencies. Fires, floods, landslides, stuff like that. Currently, cannot speak to whether they do.
