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.

The current events are nothing new - social media is.
You are making my point. This isnt new. Social media is, but this situation isn't. So social media didnt create the problem.
Pronounce it, maybe. But didn't create it.
The point is that social media is a major contributor.
No kidding these issues existed. “Newness” isn’t what’s up for debate.
The fact that people are constantly talking and making everything about politics is the "problem" I'm talking about here and that is what I'm almost entirely blaming social media for. It's not the world events I'm blaming social media for but the reaction people have to them.
