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.

Are you trying positive reinforcement with my Internet etiquette? It doesn't work great when you do it with affective contempt.
I thought you were being ironic when you said you know art can evoke emotions but you were mad about the specific emotions this art evokes.
I am trying to comprehend your intent.
If we are both art enjoyers, that comprehend art can evoke emotions with comprehension of your audience in mind, why can you evoke disenfranchisement while I can't?
You can't? Have you tried?
I try to keep good company without trying to offend my income, so no, I am not going to attempt to disenfranchise my commissioners.
But you do you!✌️
I will. My dick-breathing dragon prints are a top seller with judge-judy tarot coming in a close second. People like being mildly offended, just look at these comments.
Good luck, truly. The world needs artists. I only downvoted you after you called our friend there an asshole, which I didn't think was cool, otherwise I enjoyed our debate.
Edit: Pig was about raising people to be disempowered by shielding them from negativity, and how it does them a disservice. I struggle to find a strong allusion to class struggle, since the primary theme is the danger of being naive.
>debating, in the comic strips community’baitbro, you're in the wrong instance
You can end your grasps.
Did you not respond to me in a new thread to like... continue this debate? Almost like art can trigger strong emotions.
And here I was trying to be polite, following one of the rules of the comic strips community.
That would be neat to see how the comic strip community defines a debate.
If anyone sees this and feels like answering, how would you define a debate?
Anyway, anyone can call someone an asshole, for sure. I didn't call you call you an asshole, I said it wasn't a cool, because one of the community rules is to be polite.
