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.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Maybe if everyone votes for the least capitalist party every time....
But they won't. You know that, I know that, random raccoons in dumpsters know that.
Is that what you've observed? What we've seen is that not holding political parties accountable for their past actions leads to them ignoring everyone except their donors.
You don't have a solution if your solution starts with "if everyone would just". That's a hope or a fantasy. People won't just.
The solution starts with you, Janet.
You need to stop pushing the idea that it doesn't matter who you vote for and the poisonous idea that all politicians are equally corrupt. There are some very dangerous groups who have brainwashed you into pushing the very attitude that lets them get away with slowly eroding democracy.
I have never once pushed for people to not vote or that it doesn't matter who you vote for. I don't know what about this conversation made you think that.
