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.

Do you also uphold this same standard for those, who say murder, child sexual abuse, animal abuse, etc. are bad? At least two of those three mentioned has way more performative activism attached to them, than to anti-AI, with most performative anti-AI activism coming from AI-grifters (!) themselves generating anti-AI propaganda, and/or those who only concerned about AI use in their own field.
Just because someone thinks even self-defense should be illegal due to "murder is bad even if the murdered is bad, uwu" doesn't make murder not bad.
Just because someone thinks lolicon and not having pubic hair is literally pedophilia (or at least "normalizes" it) doesn't make child sexual abuse not bad.
Just because someone thinks meat is murder or posts "let's call John Wick!" on even the smallest forms of animal abuse (or even fake ones) doesn't make animal abuse not bad.
And just because of anti-AI sentiments being popular even among some AI users for some parts doesn't negate the negative impacts of generative AI on the society. Boomers will still be fooled by them (even I can be if I don't use a magnifier glass every time to check for artifacts - at least convincing photoshops like that old image of Osama Bin Laden, George Bush, and Barack Obama being photoshopped onto the bodies of rabbis took effort from nazis to create, not just googling how to jailbreak advanced models), scammers are going to use it to augment or automate their scams, grifters are going to use it to spam "art" to get ad revenue for their first Porsche, the gas turbines are pollluting the environment, the people behind it are snake oil salesmen, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera!
They never have concrete rebuttals to thought-out replies. If it was a matter of thinking, they wouldn't be going to bat for generative AI. Good work though.
