Rules
-
😇 Be Nice!
- Treat others with respect and dignity. Friendly banter is okay, as long as it is mutual; keyword: friendly.
-
🏘️ 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.
-
🧬 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.
-
📽️ 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!
-
📋 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.,
✅ Correct: https://xkcd.com/386/
❌ Incorrect: https://xkcd.com/
-
📬 Post Frequency/SPAM
- Each user (regardless of instance) may post up to five (5 🖐) 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 🖐) will be removed.

🏴☠️ 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.,
Sí, por favor [Spanish/Español]
- 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.,

🍿 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.
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)

MODERATORS
So when will the Democratic Party unveil it's grand plan to actually RESIST all this fascism?
Does anyone have a schedule, perhaps?
They already did. The voters decided they didn't like the plan. That's it for democratic methods. American democratically chose not to resist fascism. https://theonion.com/america-defeats-america/
Go buy a gun and join an anarchist organisation. You won't get help with the democrats, they tried and were shut down.
What plan was that? "Vote harder?"
Yeah, I also dislike plans that simply go, "trust me, bro."
The plan was that Harris would win the election and Trump wouldn't be president. That's resisting fascism, by denying it supreme executive power.
The voters said no thanks.
Bullshit. It does absolutely nothing except put a Dem in the White House for another four years and does absolutely nothing about all the fascism.
Nothing.
That's not a plan, that's business as usual.
Well okay, if you think there's no difference between a Harris presidency and a fascist dictatorship, then this comic is about you. Congratulations, you've appeared in a work of (badly drawn) art.
So you literally assumed business as usual could stop fascism?
I suggest you wake up. Fast.
No. We weren't talking about stopping fascism, we were talking about resisting fascism. You've changed the subject to a much bigger problem and assumed drag wouldn't notice your switcheroo.
So the Democratic Party never shared their plan of stopping or resisting fascism with you?
Have you asked your representative when they plan on doing so?
No, they had a plan to resist fascism, drag already told it to you. They didn't have a plan to stop fascism, that's a different conversation in which drag agrees with you. But drag thinks resisting fascism is a good enough thing to vote for. We don't need a perfect outcome in order to go and do something good.
Do you really think Harris' platform was all that liberal?
Did you listen to her DNC speech, where she insisted on having the strongest military in America's history, not mentioning Palestinians plight in Gaza and the West Bank, and promising to have a Republican in her cabinet?
Harris actively chased after the right and their voting base right up to election day. Democrats did nothing to counter Trump. If they had, they would have actually followed through on the Tim Walz pick and promulgated actual, progressive policies to win over the self-interest of their base.
Harris using a stick to get her base to vote was not enough. People need carrots. Her campaign was utter shit man.
I also agree she was more centrist than I prefer, but I don’t understand people unhappy she’s not further left, choosing to take a hard right and flying off the deep end. This is not like Columbus thinking the world is a sphere so you can head right to get left. Or maybe it is somehow, either way Haitians came out the worst
