- 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.
- Limit of two posts per person per day.

It's psychopaths succeeding for being psychopaths and not because they involve in some arbitrary concept of a class.
It's psychopaths using class to get ahead at the expense of the rest of us. They have been waging class warfare this whole time.
They aren't using "class", there is no such thing as "class", Trump is the biggest example of it - he has none, it's just a big scam to him. They are using wealth and power, but correlation does not imply causation, no matter how big that correlation may be.
Wealth and power are class. You're using the alternate definition.
You fail to understand the difference between correlation and causation. That they have wealth and power is different from how it is used. Having said that, yeah, my definition is sort of different because I also consider the social bubble aspect that they live in (hence my Trump comment).
Let me ask you, what happens when your revolution is successful, and it is you that has wealth and power. It doesn't take a lot of imagination, the CCP is sort of this.
