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.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

I'd say the term has since been appropriated, the same way that all facial tissues are mostly referred to as kleenex. If the proper Aryans wanted exclusive right to the name, they should have made more use of it
Yeah, stupid ethnic group just allowing a genocidal European nation on another continent co-opt their identity like that!
Just like those other people from India just allowing Europeans to call the people indigenous to the Americas by that name too.
Clearly if they were superior, like ~~white people~~ true Aryans, they would have protected the name by international trademark.
Finally, someone gets it. If trademarking intellectual property was wrong, Disney wouldn't have pioneered the field!
