- 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.

But they should have been upset sooner. It's great that they're upset now but if they don't realise they should've been upset sooner then their anger will be misdirected at the actual cause of the issue.
And it's not a sweeping generalisation at every white person. Pointing out systemic racism isn't racism. If you get offended by that then really you're telling on yourself.
But they were upset sooner. All of you keep making the same circular argument, "People should have already been upset!" They fucking WERE! How many times does that need to be said?
Making sweeping generalizations about all white people is not "pointing out systemic racism," it's just racism. If you get offended by this then you're telling on yourself.
I'VE ALREADY SAID THEY WEREN'T SAYING NO ONE EVER CARED.
So apparently it has to be said a hundred fucking times before you stop strawmanning.
THEY AREN'T making a sweeping generalisation of all white people - they ARE pointing out systemic racism. The only people who get triggered by these things are racists. You're a fucking racist. You saw a post being critical of the response white people are having and got offended because it couldn't possibly be that systemic racism exists, surely they must be calling out all white people or something.
Everything you're asserting is false, but if you're just going to call me racist then I'll just fuck off and when everyone else who's been upset about ICE stops caring because you're calling them racist and they fuck off too, good luck standing off with ICE when a large portion of the country isn't on board with you because you called them all racist for getting upset about you making broad generalizations about them based on their race.
Please do.
They won't get upset because the non racists won't get offended at something that isn't make broad generalisations about their race.
"non racists don't get upset when you call them racist" fuckin a
