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.

Except "small government" is the same size it just funnels money to military contractors and debt for wealthy peoples tax cuts
And doesn't investigate Tesla's automatic driving mode.
Sometimes I think about all of the lies I was told as a kid like “on one side people want to pay less taxes, and on the other people are willing to pay more to help others” when really it’s “cut programs that help people, pay more taxes unless you’re so rich it doesn’t matter, and actively commit as many evils as you can think of, or alternatively don’t do all that.” Like, there’s supposed to be a silver lining no matter which side wins. But no, all bad all the way down and the benefits that motivated the boomers in my life to cause this terror aren’t even happening. Weren’t groceries supposed to get cheaper or something to help the facism go down?
We only get grocery price breaks for NEW fascism. What we have here is the same old fascism so sorry no breaks.
The small government is actually bigger, deficit is only increasing the more time GOP stays in power and was only balanced under DNC POTUS Bill Clinton.
A large chunk of American citizens fall for the libertarian and “small gov” pandered lies, every single time.
It's a grift
