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.

Could even be nice to the marginalized they know and deem "one of the good ones" but still vote violence against them and be racist pieces of shit.
I know people in this exact scenario, in fact.
Of the people I've encountered this is the more realistic portrayal of a racist. Granted, I'm white so have a hard time detecting when other whites are racist, but when they are it's always in the more subtle ways of upholding and defending toxic hierarchies.
I'm sure there are plenty of people who will outwardly rant and rave, but I feel like those people lack the social power to be a real threat (though their lack the self control might make them a more immediate physical threat) .
