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.

If you see no differences between the Ukrainian government, flawed as it has been, and the Russian government under Putin... you may need to look a little deeper.
No differences worth fighting for.
I'm going to over to your place, take over the nicest room, lock a few people in the basement if they complain, and you'll be going to work everyday to pay for this. Sound good?
lol that's like using household finances to describe how government debt works. Not an accurate analogy at all.
I guess I can head on over.
Edit: the reason you should not use household finances as an analogy in this is because households do not control monetary policy and most people don't really understand national and international financial policy (or their own finances half the time).
In this case, a neighbor making an unprovoked takeover of your house in order to take advantage of the people living there is exactly what happened. The invasion hinges on "might makes right" so it stands to reason that should be fine in the locale of your home if it's ok for a Ukrainian's home near the border.
