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.

Egalitarianism isn't just "better life for all" without a plan, just like Feminism isn't "Equality for Women" without a plan.
Uniting under the banner of Egalitarianism as a group, rather than stating you're not that but are instead a feminist, would be like saying "I'm not in the LGBTQ+ movement, I'm a Trans Rights activist".
Everytime people like you insist (even if coming from a place with good intentions) we shouldn't consider ourselves egalitarian, you weaken all groups that would benefit from standing united under it. There's a reason right wing propaganda networks constantly argue against the term "Egalitarian" and try to keep groups like Feminists isolated from others - because it would hurt them if it actually gained in popularity.
There are indeed many people who would not qualify as egalitarian. Libertarians, Republicans, Musk - all of them hate it, because "equality for all" is in fact not as broad as you would hope, unfortunately.
