    Why is this strip following the kids narrative? I think the youngest person in the chat was…25?

      You know, when I posted this, I honestly didnt I think this was about this post that I shared https://discuss.online/post/28897489

      And was mostly thinking about shitty ass kids and teenagers leaning far right and being full blown racists.

      Which only highlights how adaptable this comic is.

      How do you think they were raised with those “values”?

        4chan… Some of the jokes are literally 4chan references.

          And 4chan is anonymous social media where you don’t even have to create a fictitious user history or have a reputation. You can literally just post a thousand times a day. More if it’s your job and you have help.

          By far the easiest social media to manipulate.

            They have a captcha I think, idk if it’s for every board. Idk if having a posting history is worth much these days, unless it’s quite old.

          And who allowed them unfettered access…?

            I don’t think it’s access. I grew up without supervision. And kids are smart.

            But I had some good parents who would slap the fascist out of me.

      The larger elephant may as well be the ‘young Republican’ here. They are of the age to have very young children.

        not very young children. “young republicans” are up to 40 years old. they could have their own 20 year olds.

      They’re metaphorically kids on the political scene, 25 is a toddler of a politician.

      Also, being a chat room, none of it came from Trump’s mouth either, but who cares about accuracy, right? No bad tactics, only bad targets. /s

          Can’t help but notice you didn’t quote him saying any of this.

          Ridiculous stuff like this is what keeps you from being taken seriously, and makes it harder to win over voters. You guys are acting like you enjoy losing elections.

          So where in there did Trump call Hitler a “good king”, call Jews “dishonest”, refer to anyone as “evil watermelon people”, or call anyone “closet f*ggots”? You know, the things being directly attributed to him here.

Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

Rules
  1. 😇 Be Nice!

    • Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
  2. 🏘️ Community Standards

    • Comics should be a full story, from start to finish, in one post.
    • Posts should be safe and enjoyable by the majority of community members, both here on lemmy.world and other instances.
    • Any comic that would qualify as raunchy, lewd, or otherwise draw unwanted attention by nosy coworkers, spouses, or family members should be tagged as NSFW.
    • Moderators have final say on what and what does not qualify as appropriate. Use common sense, and if need be, err on the side of caution.
  3. 🧬 Keep it Real

    • Comics should be made and posted by real human beans, not by automated means like bots or AI. This is not the community for that sort of thing.
  4. 📽️ Credit Where Credit is Due

    • Comics should include the original attribution to the artist(s) involved, and be unmodified. Bonus points if you include a link back to their website. When in doubt, use a reverse image search to try to find the original version. Repeat offenders will have their posts removed, be temporarily banned from posting, or if all else fails, be permanently banned from posting.
    • Attributions include, but are not limited to, watermarks, links, or other text or imagery that artists add to their comics to use for identification purposes. If you find a comic without any such markings, it would be a good idea to see if you can find an original version. If one cannot be found, say so and ask the community for help!
  5. 📋 Post Formatting

    • Post an image, gallery, or link to a specific comic hosted on another site; e.g., the author’s website.
    • Meta posts about the community should be tagged with [Meta] either at the beginning or the end of the post title.
    • When linking to a comic hosted on another site, ensure the link is to the comic itself and not just to the website; e.g.,
      ✅ Correct: https://xkcd.com/386/
      ❌ Incorrect: https://xkcd.com/
  6. 📬 Post Frequency/SPAM

    • Each user (regardless of instance) may post up to five (5 🖐) comics a day. This can be any combination of personal comics you have written yourself, or other author’s comics. Any comics exceeding five (5 🖐) will be removed.
  7. 🏴‍☠️ Internationalization (i18n)

    • Non-English posts are welcome. Please tag the post title with the original language, and include an English translation in the body of the post; e.g.,
      Sí, por favor [Spanish/Español]
  8. 🍿 Moderation

    • We are human, just like most everybody else on Lemmy. If you feel a moderation decision was made in error, you are welcome to reach out to anybody on the moderation team for clarification. Keep in mind that moderation decisions may be final.
    • When reporting posts and/or comments, quote which rule is being broken, and why you feel it broke the rules.
Banned Artists

The following artists are banned from the community.

  1. Jago
  2. Stonetoss

It should be noted that when you make reports, it is your responsibility to provide rational reasoning why something should be removed. Saying it simply breaks community rules is not always good enough.

Web Accessibility

Note: This is not a rule, but a helpful suggestion.

When posting images, you should strive to add alt-text for screen readers to use to describe the image you’re posting:

  • Markdown - Links / Images

Another helpful thing to do is to provide a transcription of the text in your images, as well as brief descriptions of what’s going on. (example)

Web of Links
  • !linuxmemes@lemmy.world: “I use Arch btw”
  • !memes@lemmy.world: memes (you don’t say!)
