Rules
-
π Be Nice!
- Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
-
ποΈ 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.
-
𧬠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.
-
π½οΈ 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!
-
π 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.,
β Correct: https://xkcd.com/386/
β Incorrect: https://xkcd.com/
-
π¬ Post Frequency/SPAM
- Each user (regardless of instance) may post up to five (5 π) 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 π) will be removed.
-
π΄ββ οΈ 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.,
SΓ, por favor [Spanish/EspaΓ±ol]
- 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.,

πΏ 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.
- Jago
- Stonetoss
- GPrime85
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:
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)

A hardcore maga coworker told me that βifβ itβs proven that Trump βwasβ in the Epstein files he will still vote for him because Iβm his own words βI would rather vote for a pedophile than an honest democrat.β
They're so proud to lick boots
And they wonder why their kids never visit anymore π
Sad thing is he has 2 sons and they are also hardcore maga too. His oldest son has a toddler and heβs said heβs gonna raise his the right way in that to be conservative.
Ask him what specific conservative policies he supports. Don't even push back at first, just make him try and articulate what principles he even believes in that aren't in opposition to something. Like ask "if all the liberals vanished in an instant, what do you and your side believe in and want?"
So many of these people are so wrapped up in fighting boogymen they just truly haven't even realized how hollow the cart they've attached their horse to is
Making conservatives defend their own policies is like asking my dog to make dinner.
It's dangerous to reason with those who are not liberated - Dietrich Bonhoeffer
I have already and he just repeats whatever he last heard on Fox News.
He only had two kids? Must hate America. I jest...
Yea the thing that really pisses me off about him is like most boomer or boomer adjacent people is he is extremely privileged. His dad was a founding member of Boeing after WW2 and his dad had a hand in establishing Lockheed Martin. When his dad passed he got a huge inheritance like millions and he still complains about lazy millennials and Gen Z not buying or able to afford homes and groceries.
I always point to the Alabama Senate election between Roy Moore and Doug Jones. Roy Moore, known pedophile, vs. normal Democrat. Far too many conservatives went on record saying "better than a Democrat".
They are so anti-pedophile until suddenly they're not. What a disgusting thing to change your opinion on, person to person.
That's the thing, they never changed their opinion, they just lied
Do these people mean it as democracy per se or just the democratic party? Just trying to understand your country's stage of fascism.
No they pearl clutch and love America and the democracy it has. But they have been taught that Democrats/Liberals are horrible, disgusting people. It's a knee jerk reaction at this point. My brother, who is hardcore maga, said "no I don't think they are talking about you. You aren't a 'liberal'". Like he was saving me from a terrible slur. And I had to nicely tell him that I am, in fact, liberal.
It kind of feels like the hatred against "the gays" in the 90s. They need someone to hate and right now it's the Democrats and liberals, and I guess everyone else the media has told them to hate (lgbtq, trans, etc).
They need to understand what you get when you remove 1 party from a 2 party system.
It's a 1 party system.
No matter what side of it, it supports the genocider state, multinationals, bombing brown people and terrorizing the rest of the world.
Lacht auf Ostdeutsch.
Dude I was born in a 1 party dictatorship and my grandparents in another. You are an idiot.
Lol why are you insulting me now?
And I never lived in a fascist dictatorship, my grandparents did. What countries are not Nazi countries for you?
You are talking like a fascist. A fanatic who's full of hatred.
Where is the love..
Funny because you start to seem like a psycho. Saying something like "all members of nation/ethnicity/religion/culture are bad"... Bru that's just unrealistic, a stupid thing to say. Instead of looking for a peaceful solution you're demanding extinction yourself. Talk about humans as if they're humans.
Trump and Netanjahu are fascist scum. But you're not better rn
This guy seems to have gotten his world view from Eric Cartman.
They donβt even know the rules, they just make up or move be flag pole as neededβ¦
These people arenβt sophisticated enough to know that small-d democrats are a thing
Ackchyually it's not a democracy, it's a constitutional republic, and those are words I read off a screen. They mean that my political team is better than yours and that owning land should give my political team more voting rights than yours.
Owning land? What? Go vote, moron
either that or its a low information i know one in my family, they either become defensive say "i dont care" or i dont know his policies, but still support him.
both sides of your pedo-uniparty are sick cultists. the same blind fanaticism where they choose not to see the evil of their own side in the face of obviousness.
this 'comic' is a great example.
Whatever the other side does or says is bad.
If they said the sun comes up in the east they would deny it.
Lol. Lmao, even.
"I'm okay with fucking kids. I'm okay with law enforcement murdering citizens in the streets. I'm okay with taking rights away from trans people. I'm okay with bombing children on the other side of the world"
"I want everyone to have affordable healthcare, education, and to be free to live their life"
BuT bOtH sIdEs ArE tHe SaMe
That's literally the only difference.
And 'citizens', AKA yourselves is all you selfish cultists care about.
Genocide Joe, besides actively aiding in genocide also put plenty kids in jail and many non citizens died under his regime while in ICE custody.
He deported a lot more than Trump too.
Of course blue magats didn't care about any of that until they started bothering YOU and killed 2 white americans.
You know their names and made a big fuss about it, the Mexicans, Vietnamese,etc... murdered before didn't matter much.
You literally did the meme
Sure Trump is worse for americunts , to the rest of the world continuously suffering from your warmongering and imperialism it makes no difference.
On the contrary, I hope he does his worst, makes you suffer and runs your shithole into the ground.
You fully deserve it.
Considering I'm not even American, what exactly do I deserve from this?
