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.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

MODERATORS
Now replace "sea lion" with "pedophile" or "murderer" and the comic remains the same still!
With "pedophile" or "murderer" the evidence for them having done harm is self evident. In the comic the reasoning for disliking sea lions is not self evident, and the comic could be easily interpreted as "I should be allowed to say I don't like any group I want and not have to defend myself."
Just wanna say thanks for holding the torch here. You pretty much echoed any response I would've made if I'd had the time, but probably better XD Sorry you got the brunt of the hate.
Meh, it's just karma that doesn't even stick your account. Doesn't bother me and provides an alternative point of view.
Personally I don't think the comic did a very good job of demonstrating what "sea lioning" is or why it's a problem. Going by what was presented in the comic this is an example of sea lioning: https://old.reddit.com/r/BoomersBeingFools/comments/1b2egrq/boomer_takes_a_stand_against_crt/
