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.

Just because they lobby for things doesn't mean that people no longer have any choices.

The corn lobby lobbies for, and gets, all kinds of subsidies. That doesn't mean you're required to eat corn.

that has convinced them that it will affect their lives negatively.

Boohoo. They believed the propaganda, it's not their fault!

A lot of people have to buy that metal box because there is no reasonable alternative

Because their definition of "reasonable" is too narrow. It's slightly less convenient, therefore unreasonable.

And then there's people like you that, when people try to do better, criticize them because they have a infinitesimal part of the guilt.

When have I criticized anyone for trying to do better. What I criticize is people trying to feel less guilty about their selfish decisions by trying to heap all the blame on oil companies instead, like you do.
