A community for comic lovers who just want to get away from politics and gloom and doom.
- Rule 1 - Be civil.
- Rule 2 - Don't be uncivil.
Posting guidelines:
- No political comics. This generally includes anything referencing whatever bullshit Trump is up to, but also includes the megacorps. Essentially if the comic is about how the world today sucks, it doesn't belong here.
- Where possible, tag the title with [comic name]. This refers to the name of the artist or overall comic, not the title of the specific strip.
- Tag NSFW / NSFL / AI content accordingly.

If someone doesn't like your car, and they petition congress to outlaw the make and model, they've politicized a non-issue.
If you tell them it's none of their business, you're not being political. It's not making it political to tell them it isn't political.
I would argue it does and there are a lot of examples of this… Tesla maybe? Boycotts are political and acting like they aren't is a political stance
It's more like Musk made himself a political figure when he tampered with elections, bribed voters, did a roman salute at a maga convention, and then hired a bunch of twenty-year-olds to hack into every government agency and steal their data for his AI company [edit: while dismantling the services they provide and laying off the majority of their workforce].
His assets, including tesla, are simply collateral. Unless you include all the government subsidies he's getting from this quid-pro-quo; those are certainly political.
A person's personal choice, such as what car to drive or what gender to present as, is not political, and not even remotely comparable.
Are human rights political, simply because they're enshrined in government documents? If so, then I guess we can't have any depictions life, liberty, or the pursuit of happiness either.
Are women political because they've had to fight to have the same rights as men? If so, then I guess we can't depict women.
Are you the type who believes Obama "brought race into politics" simply by... being black and in politics?
It very well is though, but unrelated to the subject
Human rights, subjects like freedom and stuff ARE political. The comic depicting some situations might not be even though they're feature, depending on the angle that is taken. The same comic in a situation where there's less freedom would not have been political had it not made reference to the debated topic or freedom.
Also, the 'political' stuff I'm talking about is more 'heated' subjects. Everything can be political, it's just a scale though, and I would say for this comic that the threshold has been exceeded.
Okay well we're just not going to agree then and that's fine
I guess, have a nice day then ❤️!
