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.

MODERATORS
People should get the vast majority of the blame. Oil companies lobby and spew propaganda, but people choose cars because they're comfy and more convenient than mass transit or biking.
We're absolving ourselves of our own agency if we're directing our ire at them instead of our own lifestyles.
If you think you can save the planet by letting the oil industry off the hook, you're fooling yourself.
I think if people stopped using cars, travelling by plane, and ordering stuff from far away, the oil industry would collapse because it wouldn't have customers.
